A Design always starts with the Geometry Preparation. This step can be done either in a CAD program or directly in MSC Apex Generative Design.

Once an optimisation is started you are directly transferred to thePost Processing in MSC Apex Generative Design and you can track the progress of your optimisation in a live view. The Post Processing gives information about the stresses, displacements and mass of each iteration. The intersection has been integrated in the optimisation process and doesn’t need to be carried out manually. Every iteration is now available as an intersected file. For more information regarding the intersection have a look here.
The intersected model is used in the Reanalysis to verify the structure for the specified usage.
