Manufacturing Conditions and Geometrical Restrictions

For the topology optimization with SIMULIA Tosca Structure, it is possible to define constraints (DVCON_TOPO) that have a direct influence on the individual design variables (DV_TOPO). This allows the manufacturing restrictions or geometrical design aspects to be taken into consideration in the topology optimization.
