hello,
I am using Altair 14.0 student version, i want contour plot for element thickness result (i am doing topology optimization).
but it shows only element density contour in result type. how can i get element thickness contour plot.
thanks
Hi Nikhil,
Try Size/Guage optimization
Dear Prakash,
Can't it be done with topology optimization, I have seen example of topology optimization 11.0 in which there is option to view
element thickness in hyperview.
i am mentioning the example
OS-2020: Increasing Natural Frequencies of an Automotive Splash Shield with Ribs.
Thanks
Nikhil,
I think for that you need to add a base thickness when using shell property. Did you add any such thickness?
yes I have added base thickness(4 mm) and my design space =(7.5 mm-4 mm).
Element thickness comes automatically in des.h3d when you have shell elements in topology optimization.
can you check?
yes i have checked but it didn't come.
