Creating the design and non design spaces
Hello all,
I am new to topology optimization and I need your help to create the design and non-design spaces.
What is the best way to do this?
Should I create 2 different bodies in the part in Catia V5 in order to get 2 different components in Hypermesh, and then connect and mesh them?
In this case, how could I connect the 2 components?
Or should I create only one main body and define the non design space within Hypermesh? (But the design of the part is not simple. I fear this might be difficult)
Feel free to contact me if I'm not clear enough
Thank you very much
Best regards
Florian

I think I found a way to achieve what I want through the boolean operations in the solid edit tab.
I choose the advanced operation type, the A+B operation and I combine through none.
With a simple part, it works perfectly.
However, when I try with the part I have to optimize, it says 'internal error'
Where could this error come from?
There are no other indications.
Is there a way to know what this mistake is caused by?
Thanks
Florian
Can you share a picture of the model?
Two components are far from each other and how the load will act on each other?
Thanks for your answers.
Sadly, for confidentiality reasons, I can't share the part with you, sorry.
However, the picture 1 at the end of this message is a small bit of the part for you to understand.
The 2 components are the pink and the brown ones.
I want to connect the 2 components ( create a partition surface between them).
With a simple design (pictures 2 and 3), it works without problem.
However, the part I work on is very complicated, and it keeps saying 'internal error'.
Sadly, I'm not able to identify where the error comes from.

Hi,
You can connect 2 comps by sharing their nodes, binding with rbe2/rbe3,... or contact
