Shape optimization of a mechanical object

i want to do Topology/shape optimization of a mechanical component(cylinder) by applying a load at one end and a fixed support at other end. The optimization would be based on stress distribution. Please suggest toolbox and video or examples ?

How is it going?

Answer 1

[darova]

Area of a cylinder crossection is: (r is radius)

To calculate a load: (F - force, P - pressure)

Example

P = 620 MPa (maximum allowable stress)

F = 100 N (load)

A = F/P = 6.2 ()
