Topology optimization

Hello,
I would like to set up a topological analysis of a structural element so that Optistruct 'eliminates' material/volume until a stressed limit is reached.

In the topological analysis of a Carm.hm for example, I have the stress path and I can modify with a slider the density of the material, but I'd like to know If is possible the program to remove volume step by step until a minimum volume is requested that is solicited at most.

Can you tell me how to do it?

 

Thanks in advance

    Hi,

     

    Sorry for a late reply.

     

    I don't think it is possible to control the volume. 

     

    Anyways, I will check with experts and get back to you soon.
