Extend optimization to Thin Parts: Generative Bead and Cutouts compliant with Sheet Metal Design process.
Improvement of Manufacturing constraint management per design space volume and integration of a new constraint that controls extrusion shape spacing and width (Rib reinforcement).
Video illustrating all the new improvements added in the Structural Generative Design role with the integration of Bead and Surface topology optimization on Thin Parts and a new Rib manufacturing constraint.
Image that provides an highlight of the Disconnect command in the context of a surface and a disconnected area.
Image that illustrates the Bead Local Optimization Area in which the user can specify the first and second limits and also the status of the boundaries (preserved or not) for the bead optimization.
An example of the bead optimization result with different beads generated over the disconnected area.
Image that shows the sheet metal reconstruction performed through the Concept Generation command that guides the user during the creation of sheet metal stamp leveraging different bead approximation profiles and strategies.
