Performing an Optimization Using the Analysis Optimization Assistant

Analysis case assistant lets you guide you through the sequence of operations for performing a topology optimization.


Before you begin: Create a simulation object and an optimization.
  1. Double-click the optimization.
  2. Select one of the following options:
    OptionDescription
    Model Configures the model—the regions of your model that can be modified during the optimization, and specifies the connections between regions of your model.
    Physics Specifies loads and restraints, defines load cases, specifies connections between regions, and apply a contact detection to the entire model or specifies contact between surfaces.
    Analysis Defines the frequency and buckling analyses and verifies that the analysis of your base model generates the expected results.
