Hi!

Is there a way to run an analysis of an optimized model with a new load case? Right now I can only find the option to run it with the load case it was optimized for.

    you could recreate your design using the Fit PolyNURBS option, in order to get a refactored model, with the new shape.

    And starting from that, you would add new loadcases into it.

     

    ?but remeber, ideatlly the Topology optimization should take into account all the relevant loadcases from the begininnig.

    Thank you!

    Unfortunately, fit generates a non-manifold design.

    Maybe it is best to run a new optimization?
