configDate&Time.cfg

If the config file is changed during an optimization, new changed config file is written as soon as it is considered in the optimization.
csv_Boundary_Dis_case_Lastfall_1_1.csvDisplacements per element in load case 1
csv_Boundary_Load_case_Lastfall_1_1.csvLoad per element in load case 1

csv_Knots_Boundary_Load_case_Lastfall_1_1.csvLoad per node in load case 1
FunctionOptimizerLog.csv

Table with minimal stress, maximum stress, median stress, volume, volume prognosis target stress, volume prognosis for 90%..10% target stress
