Components missing OSSmooth

Hello,

 

i am doing a topology optimization for a part. i split the parts in two components (design space and non designspace). non designspace only conists of a few elements around bolt holes. When i want to reanalyse the optimization results with ossmooth it only gives me the non desginspace after loading the optimized model. the design part is always missing. can somebody tell me a solution for this? i dont understand why this is happening.

 

thanks in advance

    Hi MaxB,

     

    After optimization in the HyperMesh with OptiStruct as a solver, result files are generated. The model file will be in .fem format and the results file generated is in .sh file. The “.fem” file contains the model data and “.sh” file contains the shape change data after optimization. By overwriting the .sh file on the base model we get the optimized model.

     

    Thank You
