Efficient Designs using ANSYS Topology & Lattice Optimization – Tips & Tricks

Abstract

Recent improvements in additive manufacturing technology have opened up the possibilities to manufacture intricate optimized structures which are often difficult to produce using conventional manufacturing methods. Topology optimization, a physics driven optimization methodology, improves the efficiency of a design by removing material based on the finite element response. This webinar will focus on the different capabilities of the ANSYS topology and lattice optimization solvers as well as discuss the clean-up and validation of the optimized design.

Agenda

• Introduction and theory behind topology optimization
• Geometry cleanup and the way back to CAD
• Lattice optimization
• Validating the optimized part
• Combined static and dynamic optimization
• Software specific tips and newer features
• Q&A
