\nAnsys Discovery Topology Optimization Weight Reduction<\/a><\/p>\n

Ansys Discovery features best-in-class Topology Optimization Tool, which helps you compute an optimal structural design for a selected region in your model with specific design goals and constraints. It is a physics driven optimization tool that is based on a set of loads and boundary conditions.<\/p>\n

Currently, you can use optimization to either maximize the strength of your topology, minimize the response to free vibration, or balance strength and frequency. You can also target a specified frequency or optimize to minimize volume or stress.
\nYou can apply manufacturing constraints which will generate designs suitable to your preferred manufacturing process which will help you further.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

This knowledge material will guide you on how to setup simulation for minimizing the volume with various constraints. Ansys Discovery further allows you to run a validation simulation on the optimized part faceted geometry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-178679","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-ansys-discovery","topic-tag-topology-optimization"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
