Effect of change in material density/modulus of elasticity in optimization
Hello All,
Can anyone tell me how does optistruct uses material data to attain an optimum design?
For example:
We have run a model for topology optimization with material magnesium and also with material Aluminum by keeping the density same but varied the modulus of elasticity accordingly.
How does optistruct uses density/modulus of elasticity during topology optimization ?
Its quite urgent, any suggestions are highly appreciable.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Praveen,
It depends on your optimization problem. What is your objective and constraints?
