Altair OptiStruct
OptiStruct is an award-winning CAE technology for conceptual design synthesis and structural optimization

Altair OptiStruct 9.0 New Feature Highlights
Equivalent Static Load Method (ESLM)
Enables optimization of flexible body multi-body dynamics problems undergoing transient loads
Utilize free-size, topography, size, free-shape, shape and material design variables in the optimization study
Free shape manufacturing constraints
Account for assembly considerations
Incorporate packaging limits while optimizing a design with automatic generation of shape variables and prevent fouling and part interference
Free size manufacturing constraints
Realistic laminate definition through the new STACK and PLY cards
Incorporate realistic manufacturing constraints through methods of controlling thicknesses of each ply, defining dependant ply thicknesses and constant (non-design) thickness of a ply
Material optimization
Identify the optimal material grade for a desired application. Determine the optimal Young’s Modulus or density to best suit the in-service product requirements. Additionally, other structural material properties can be defined as design variables
OSSmooth – Autobead, geometry smoothing
Automatic bead interpretation from topography optimization results
