The part features other ancillary bodies attached to it that are where loads apply. After running the optimisation, and obtaining a geometry from the algorithm, I then need to transfer it to validation.<\/p>\n<p>Using Ansys 2022 R1 I right click on the result tab in the project schematic and transferi it to &#8220;Design Validation System &#8211; Geometry&#8221;.
