Setting up topology optimization

- [Instructor] Now that we've gone ahead and set up our static loads and seen some simulation data of what's happening, let's go into topology optimization. Now I really like going into topology optimization because it really helps me understand where I need and don't need material. And this helps for the up schedule, it also helps as an design tool to understand how to reshape the bike. So let's set up topology optimization here. I am using basically all the load cases and everything we had before, I'm trying to remove excess material and we're going to be 10%. So it's very little, we're not very aggressive, we're just trying to get ideas here. So we can set that up and let's go ahead and run. Now, we're just going to let this run for just a few minutes and kind of understand what's happening. So now that we got our results that took about a minute and a half to get this kind of results back from discovery, and we…
