Using Swan’s flexibility, the manufacturability of the optimal designs can be guaranteed:

  • Usage of perimeter and minimum-length-scale constraints to avoid formation of small beams in the obtained solution
  • Usage of anisotropic perimeter to limit the overhang of the solution for additive manufacturing
Effect of limiting the minimum length scale on the final optimized result.
Effect of limiting the minimum length scale on the final optimized result.

These designs are also easily exportable, making Swan the ideal toolbox to design your pieces and 3D-print them directly.
