Hi,

 

 

I am trying to do topology optimization of  a wheel, but i don´t know how to optimize step by step.

I saw some webnars but i did not get clear information to my case (wheel).

    Have a look at Optimization tutorials of Hyperworks. I found them understandable and helpful.

    and the result is the same too and very strange for a wheel.

    Hi,

     

    I can see that there is an objective function but no constraint on design. I think this is the reason for such a design at the end of optimization. 

     

    If you want to add stress constraint I suggest you to add through Topology panel>> Parameters>> Stress constraints.
