At present, is the topology optimization under dynamic loads can be conducted in OptiStruct , or not??

NAVNEET NAMDEO

i want to perform topology optimization under dynamic loading case. so i want to know whether the OptiStruct Software take dynamic loading as input or not.

many other research have been done optimization  by converting dynamic loading  either into multi-load static case (using time step) or into ESLM (equivalent static load method). None of them taken dynamic loading as direct input for topology optimization.

so i want to know that whether any of the product provide by the Altair has the capability to perform topology optimization under dynamic loading ?

Optistruct uses ESLM as well.
