This way the algorithm works at its best and creates the most fitting results to the boundary conditions. With this approach it is possible to let the algorithm decide which and how many fixation points are necessary and needed for the applied boundary conditions. The reduction of fixation points almost always results in a more lightweight design by still taking into consideration the Safety Factor/Stress Goal of the structure.

It can be seen clearly that the prioritization of the first Events changes the design. The geometry in the left picture shows more material in the structure because of the higher Safety Factor/ lower Stress Goal for the first Event. The enveloped stress for both Events clearly shows a gradation between front and back structure. You can also have a look at the stress distribution for each Event separately. By activating the Lock Spectrum Range, the stresses can be compared more easily.
