Want significantly stiffer designs without adding weight? See how bead optimization with 3DEXPERIENCE's Structural Generative Designer role (SGD) revolutionizes your workflow. In this workflow, strategically placed stiffening beads deliver a dramatic stiffness improvement while maintaining a consistent mass.
This video builds on our generative design tutorials, walking you through the process. We start with a linear static analysis and define optimization constraints. Then, we generate a concept shape—a solid body with editable sketches—giving you complete design control. Fine-tune the geometry within these sketches for your ideal configuration.
See bead optimization in action! This video shows how the app creates efficient designs, achieving a 73% stiffness improvement while maintaining consistent mass. We'll show you step-by-step how to use the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to achieve these impressive results so you can implement it into your product development.
