Dears,

When I do the topological optimization simulation, setting in minimize mass, everytime give a error of "no realists loads". As I can resolve?

    Hi @Ronald Lucas Silva Lefundes Oliveira 

     

    What are the loads you're using in your optimization?

    Usually this error means that you're not applying loads correctly, or these loads do not affect your design space at all.

    I would review the model and check if loadings and bondary conditions make sense.

    Also always recommended to run a simple analyisis first, before going to optimization to make sure displacements are consistent.

     

    Also, including a few images of your model and setup would be really helpful.
