Does anyone know about axis-symmetric topology optimization?
They are already tried, but could not produce the same result as axis symmetry. I think their uses are slightly different. Axis symmetry should generate a design that every cross-section of the circular hoop above is the same.- Billie_HK

Does anyone know about axis-symmetric topology optimization?
ABAQUS provides geometric restrictions such as a planer, rotational, and other symmetric, but there is no axis symmetric restriction. I know that the 2D axis symmetric element model could be possible to make in PART section. But I want to know that a full 3D element model could be optimized by...- Billie_HK
