Objectives
- - Reduce bracket mass while preserving structural reliability
- - Use modal behavior for structural health checks
Methodology
The project follows a structured implementation approach that includes CAD model with optimization space definition, Static and topology optimization in ANSYS, Modal comparison pre and post optimization, and Material comparison for aerospace alloys. These steps are executed iteratively to validate assumptions, improve performance, and ensure reliable delivery of the final solution.
