constraint/ volume fraction

mohajerb@uwindsor.ca · May 2014

What does using volume fraction of element mean?

'the constraint is set to use 15% of volume fraction of design space'

what does this mean?

It means (volume of optimized structure / volume of original model).

upper boundary of 0.15 means: Take maximum 15% of the original volume for the optimized design.

Take a loo at that post. I explained the volume fraction constraint there
