You explore the new Design Study interface by solving this example. You perform an optimization of a knob to minimize its mass by defining the variables, constraints, and goals. Minimizing the mass saves the cost of the part by reducing material while meeting your validation constraints.
To see the model, open install_dir\samples\whatsnew\Optimization\knob.sldprt.
At each iteration of this example, the Design Study runs the Simulation study to determine the factor of safety. Click the
Ready_Torsion study tab to review the Simulation study. The study subjects the knob to torsional loading. It applies a torque to the handle and does not allow the yellow faces to twist.
