Error obtained while trying to run optistruct

Altair Forum User

Hi,

I am Nishanth and I am new to Optistruct , when I try to run my model in Optistruct I get an error. Can you please provide me with an optimum solution.

 

Objective of my topology optimization:

1. Maximizing the frequency of the component 

2. Minimizing the mass of the component.

 

I hereby attach the image of the error. Please suggest me a solution to my issue asap.

Hi @Nishanth

 

this error is because the model has CQUAD elements with no PSHELL property assigned.
