Could you please share details of optimization?

It would be better if you can share the model file with us.

When you say you don't know how to do that, I think it's better you begin some simple tutorials in your installation.

From your model, I learned that design constraint is volume and the upper bound is given for compliance as 0.03 which mean solver will remove almost all the material.

How did you arrive at a compliance value of 0.03?
