8.3.01. 2d topology optimisation
DESCRIPTION
Ameba is a topology optimisation tool based on the BESO method, which provides optimisation for 2D and 3D geometrical models. Users may, according to design requirements, apply different loading and boundary conditions to the initial design domain. During the computational process by the software, the design domain will evolve into various shapes, and eventually reach an organic form that is structurally efficiet.
