I have a cantilever beam, which is fixed at one end. I want to apply two moments at two different points and measure the end deflection. So, for optimization, I have 3 parameters, namely, moment1 (M1), moment2 (M2), and tip deflection (X).
I want to "seek target" the tip deflection by say x...
1) Yes, I am constraining Center pickups. What set of forces and moments I will have to aaply need to be determined to get displacement of A SINGLE node on rim (not entire rim).
2) 16 random loads (will be bounded by maximum loads at those points). Surely their are more no of inputs than...

I want to bend the structure.
The method you are telling is correctly applicable till one (or few) actuation points. But in the Antenna, their are 16 such points (in the lower part of image, see that I have mentioned M1, M2 ..... M16 all may be different). Hence, response due to all is...
I have a parabolic 3D structure (an Antenna) which is mounted rigidly near the center by 8*2 = 16 bolts. I want to deform the structure. So, I have a known deformations at a particular line of CAD model/node (eg say at any edge node along z axis by 1 mm ) (displacement boundary condition). For...
