The optimisation parameters are selected in the Studies Area as well.

• Manufacturing Method: Generic AM

• Failure Criteria: Von Mises

• Safety Factor: 4

• Strut Density: Medium

• Shape Quality: Balanced

• Complexity Setting: 7

• Keep Non-Design Spaces: All Constraints and Interfaces 5-10 are deactivated

...

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 start.

...

The optimisation is finished after 64 iterations (Shape Quality: Balanced).

You can check the status of the optimisation in the GD Status and get more information on Warning and Error messages. This can be done directly in the Post-Processing as well as in the Studies tab for an optimisation that has already run.

Step 8: Visualization of Stresses & Displacements

• Inside the Post Processing the von Mises stress and the displacements are visible for all iterations and for every Event

• The Scale can be influenced individually
