Hi @viketh

Please let us know the details of the project and the problem you are facing with pre and post processing.

Let me introduce myself again. I am viketh from RVCE solar car team. We design and build solar electric vehicle. This time we incorporating monocoque concept in which vehicle will be made from carbon fibre. Structural parts will be made from composite sandwich panel. In structural parts there are ribs and spars of sandwich panel. Since car run only on available sun power, car has to lightweight.

Since design consists of compex structure, I am unable to define composites with sublaminate and I also need help in deciding the boundary conditions in shape and shuffle optimization. It will be very helpful if someone can assist in project.
