Concept Design Using Topology and Topography Optimization

Chapter 2: Topology Optimization of an Automotive Control Arm5. For response =, assign the name disp.6. As the response type:, select displacement.7. Click nodes and select by id and enter the node 2699.8. Below the nodes button activate total disp as the direction of displacement.9. Click create.10. Click return to go back to the optimization set up panel.Figure 2-6: Displacement response defined on node 2699Define constraints for optimization1. From the optimization set up panel, select the dconstraints subpanel.2. To constraint =, assign the name brake.3. Activate upper bound and assign the value 0.05.4. Click response =.5. Select disp.6.
