Tutorial conclusion: Shape Optimization analysis

In this tutorial, you

• Created a Shape Optimization study to optimize the shape of a robot gripper arm and reduce the material by 40%

• Applied constraints and loads to preserve vital aspects of the original design.

• Defined the shape optimization criteria and ran the shape optimization analysis

• Modified the original design in the Design workspace, based on the shape optimization mesh object

• Ran a static stress analysis to check that the new design meets the design specifications.
