Topology optimization
Hello! I am trying to optimizate a bellcrank for a formula student car and I am a beginner using Hyperworks. After doing some exercises from Altair Certification I am not able to do anything fine...
I have done a model and I want to do a topology optimization in order to minimize the weight. Theoretically, the holes shouldn't be modified. After running the Optistruct I cannot get any clear result... ¿Can anybody look at my model and tell me who I need to change/add?

Hi,
You can include few of the elements around the hole in non-design space.
Hi, thanks for your answer.
This problem is solved. Now what it is happening is that the holes are not conected with material. It is optimizated with material between two holes, but the one on the top is like 'flying'. Do you have any idea what can it be happening?
Yes, that's theory
