Furthermore, we create two Interfaces at the bottom of the Design Space, to ensure that the fixations on the different sites are connected and there is a good interface to place the bracket later on on the ground. For this we select the two outer surfaces at the bottom and choose a Non-Design Space Thickness of 5 mm.
...
In the next step the interaction between the retained parts Retained Volumes and the Design Space ist is defined. For this the Generative Design Configuration Tool is used. Start the Tool and chosse choose the corresponding objects for each step the corresponding objects and , then click the MMB. For this configuration we just choose the Design Space for as the Initial Design Space and the Motor and the screws as Retained Volumes.
...
After the selection click Create Configuration and Apply Configuration. After this the Gd The GD Configuration 1 and the corresponding Generative Design Part 1 are created. If you right-click on the Configuration object and choose edit, you can validate or change your seectionselection. It should look like this:
...
Active in Event1: Force-Moment 1 and all Constraints
Active in Event2: Force-Moment 2 and all Constraints
...
Step 7: Definition of optimisation parameters
...
If all data is correct, the optimisation can be started and tracked in the Post Processing. The Analysis Readiness function checks if all information is provided and the optimisation can startbe started.
...
All result iterations are displayed as soon as they are available. Furthermore, you are able to stop the optimisation in this selection area. However, a Restart is not directly possible.
