Design Violations


Hi, I'm a final year student currently undergoing a final year project about lower arm suspension. I'm still new to this software and I'm hoping that you guys can help. After I've optimized my lower arm suspension by minimization of its mass, it says design violation and it had shown me my original factor Of Safety 2.1. Does it mean it needs to be higher or lower? Or did I do something wrong in applying the force?

It's only one part and when I click design space it would automatically select the surface of the whole part instead of some certain area. Is there any function that can split the part or I need to redesign the part in order to separate it?
Thank you .


You can edit your model in Inspire. Please have a look at our Modeling tutorials

You must increase your design space.
In your current setup there is no room to take material away.
That's why there is a design violations: even with a completely filled design space, the part is not strong enough.
Good luck!
