Non-Parametric Shape Optimization

OPTISHAPE-TS is the sole business software which contains the nonparametric shape optimization technique by "Traction method".

Nonparametric Shape Optimization proposes the most suitable shape by changing surface shape.
By Traction Method, it needs just the boundary condition.
So the user can easily use this software at various design stages like the detailed design stage, the improvement stage of existing parts, etc.

Analysis case

Lightweighting of Aluminum Wheel
Lightweighting of Aluminum Wheel It gives the lightweighting shape as considering stress,stiffness and the production requirements.

  • Object : Volume Minimization
  • Constraint : Stiffness, Shape Restriction

Stress Minimization of Link Arm
Stress Minimization of Link Arm It minimizes Mises Stress while fixing volume.

  • Object : Mises Stress Minimization
  • Constraint : Volume

Natural Frequency Maximization of Lower Arm
Natural Frequency Maximization of Lower Arm It gives the shape which maximizes the natural frequency of the specified vibration mode. Therefore, it can improve the vibration characteristic.

  • Object : Natural Frequency Maximization
  • Constraint : Volume

Shape Restriction

By using this, you can optimize the shape as satisfying various production requirements.

  • Uniform Cross Section
  • Restriction for die drawing
  • Constraint not to going through a plane
  • Constraint not to going through a cylindrical wall
  • Shape of cross section
  • Constraint of shape variation
    in normal direction of the shell elements
  • Design area defined by arbitrary shape
  • Restriction of minimum thickness
  • Keeping uniform thickness
  • Keeping rib shape
Shape Restriction

Level Set Method Shape Optimization

"Level Set Method Shape Optimization" is structure optimization technique of middle positioning of "Topology Optimization" and "Shape Optimization".
This is hard to become the complicated structure including cavity like "Topology Optimization", and this mesh isn't collapsed because it's fixed.
