I’m a beginner with this software, so I’d like to ask not only about the issue but also how to use it.
When clicking the "Comparison of Results" tab after performing structural optimization, the optimized result is displayed, but the displayed mass value is clearly incorrect.
The optimization conditions were:
- Maximization of stiffness
- Target mass: 70%
Even when overlaying the original shape, there is clearly no added volume, yet the mass has increased.
No structural overlap has been detected, and even when checking with other software, no overlap was found. There might be some kind of overlap that is counted only within this software, but I don’t know how to display or check for that.
If anyone knows why this might be happening, I would greatly appreciate your insights.
