Relevant data for this tutorial:

...

In this case one force is defined (on the top plate volume):

Name

Force/Moment/Pressure/Gravity

Direction

Value in N

Force - Moment 1

Force on surface

y

-4000

...

One constraint on the foot is created and attached on the Non-Design Space:

Name

Direction

Constraint 1

x, y, z (=0)

...

Step 4: Interface Creation

...

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.

...

The legend can be influenced in different ways. You can add and reduce the stress/displacement steps, enlarge different steps and set new minimum and maximum values. The picture below shows the stress distributionwith a scale spectrum from 0 to 2 times the stress goal, which is a good fit for all optimisations. This displays the even distribution of the selected stress goal with the colour range of green and critical points are viewable in red.
