which method is Fusion using for shape optimization?

Hi everybody,

do you know if fusion is using a SIMP method for Shape Optimization or which other kind of method?

I did a topology optimization with Inspire and with the same model one with Fusion and I get two different final structures.

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous,

Great questions! Shape Optimization does use the SIMP method. This video here goes into a deeper dive on the methods used to solve.

Thanks,

Hi James,

The link to the deeper dive isn't working for me, is the video located anywhere else?
