Shape Optimization: Global-stress and Local-Stress control Two options to adjust the stress-control: - Global-stress: control all the elements ( also elements in the exclusion region) - Local-stress ignores the elements of the Exclusion Region* Shape Optimization min -Stress 105% mass Global Static Analysis setup & stress result Final design & Stress-result Optimizable faces (in blue) Optimizable Elements (in blue) Stress-peak (on the body) = 1.29e7MPa Stress-peak (on the body) = 0.28e7 MPa (~80% peak reduction) Stress-peak (on the body) = 0.88e7 MPa (only ~30% reduction due to the restricted optimizable region) Stress-peak (on the body) = 0.91e7 MPa Stress-peak (on the optimizable elements) = 0.86e7 min -Stress 105% mass Global min -Stress 105% mass Local Optimizable Elements (in blue) * (may have effects on the stress-peak outside the monitoring area.)
