Step 1: Transfer Design Candidate & Map LBCs and Material
For this Tutorial the Jet Engine Bracket project is used.
...
Save the project and close MSC Apex Generative Design.
Step 2: Open Database in MSC Apex
Open the MSC Apex Generative Design database with the transitioned Design Candidate in MSC Apex.
...
The geometry as well as the LBCs and Material information are transferred and available for the verification.
Step 3: Meshing
The optimised geometry needs to be meshed with a tetrahedral mesh for the reanalysis. For the Jet Engine Bracket a quadratic element with a mesh size of 3 mm is chosen.

(Step 4: Check the material coordinate system orientation)
Optional: If you have used anisotropic material behaviour, please check if the used material coordinate system is orientated correctly. If you have changed the build direction in MSC Apex GD in the studies tab, the material orientation must be adjusted manually!
Step 5: Set up the static scenario
In the studies tab the static analysis scenario can be set up. Therefore, the model representation needs to be linked to the optimised geometry. Under Loads & Constraints the Events can be set up.
