🎥Setting Up a Topology Optimization Study in Functional Generative Design [5 min]

Did you know that with the Function-Driven Generative Designer role and the Functional Generative Design app, you can quickly set up a topology optimization study and generate an editable B-Rep solid body? This allows users to go beyond un-editable mesh outputs, enabling full control over design refinement and manufacturing readiness.

In this video, we walk through defining the design space, applying loads and restraints, and running an optimization study.

You’ll also learn how to apply optimization constraints such as shape control, thickness limits, and manufacturability considerations (casting, milling, or additive manufacturing). Once the study is complete, you can generate an editable B-Rep solid, simplifying further design modifications.

Watch the video below for a step-by-step guide!
