With the Advanced User Settings the optimization parameters can be influenced. These settings overwrite the selection of the Strut Density as they are only default settings for the ones described here. These settings change the number of iterations as well as the stress percent goal on each resolution level.

To set up the advanced user settings the following options need to be defined in the advance user settings text field:

  • fOptimizer_switchAddRemove

  • number of resolution levels

  • iterations of each resolution level

  • stressPercentGoal of each resolution level

Input commands

Explanation

UpSampleConfig

fOptimizer_switchAddRemove=58

Starting with iteration 58, elements are either added or removed and only every second iteration is saved. This is important for the iterations near to the end of the optimization.

iteration

.level_3=10"

.level_2=10"

.level_1=20"

.level_0=30"

Specify how many iterations are calculated at which resolution level. Note that convergence should be achieved at each level.

Default settings normal: 20, 20, 20, 10

Default settings massive: 10, 10, 20, 30

Default settings filigree: 15, 40, 4, 4

Optimizer_stressPercentGoal

.level_3=10

.level_2=25

.level_1=50

.level_0=100

The percentage at which the target stress is reached is set.

Default settings normal: 30, 40, 90, 100

Default settings massive: 10, 25, 50, 100

Default settings filigree: 60, 90, 95, 100
