Re: How does S-LINE calculate TOP and BOT longitudinal bar spacing?
Thanks Tayen, I'm comparing with CSA.
Do you have any more insight into how S-LINE calculates the actual bar spacing it compares to the CSA code?
Hi Angelica, I would advise you to check S-LINE's help system, got to Help-->Content and you will find the Topics dialogue where you can type in the topic that you need more information about and look at the different topics, like the CSA provisions, where I got the screenshot I shared earlier.

If you have any additional questions, please be welcome to send them as a case to hwsupport@altair.com along with any models you would like us to look at.
Best,
Tayen Aguilar

Ok,
Here is my try:
1. basic

2. With Frequency Constraints

3. Topography optimation

4. With only 3 sectors in shape control

Re: Run a tcl script in 2023
Hi Arno,
Please find the options here in the attached image to run the .tcl scripts.

Hey Arno,
You can also drag and drop your .tcl file into the Tcl command window. To enable it, go to View Menu > Tcl Command Window


Kind regards,

Many thanks, Sriramanuj Prabhu!
Still, the manual should be updated.

Re: what's the mathematical model or numerical method used in gauge optimization ?
Hello,
You have info about the math of the methods in this section of the doc.
https://help.altair.com/hwsolvers/os/topics/solvers/os/design_optimization.htm
With size optimization you don't really need to do any extra verification of the results, since the last iteration results are already the same that one analyst would do, regardless of how the design has been achieved.
I recommend you sell them the improvements, the increase in mechanical performance or mass reduction. That makes a better bussiness case than any method! ![]()
Re: Does anybody have a copy of rmx_text-ANY-9.4.0.jar to share?
Wheel rim topology optimization
Hi all,
Have you ever tried to do this interesting tutorial in new Altair Inspire verson (2022.3 or later)? Can you share the result?
You can download the model file and watch tutorial video in this Ebook: Simulation - Driven Design With Altair Inspire.

Re: Altair Inspire® Challenge #2: Cycling Shoe Cleat Design
Hi,
So I run some tests to optimize the structure, but it was not so easy to take something away. From the start model, it already bends 1,6 mm and von mises goes over abs limit (105 MPa). There was no mention about changing the material, so I stuck with abs.
Here is my optimize result:

So this is my result:


I got max displacment 2,18 mm and max von mises 123 MPa. The weight is now 21 g
PS.
I can’t understand how other have manage get rid of some much material and even get better stiffness.
Re: hello, i wanna know about radioss, rigid wall
how have you configured the rigid wall?
when you create the rigid wall, you have to add the structure nodes to the contact group of the rigid wall in order to activate the barrier effect.
