How do I change the method then, or is it not necessary? At the moment, the option is, SIMP and ramp. https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=2af3a281-37c7-4827-b13c-16b4b17abb19&file=opt.png
As I know Abaqus uses SIMP method for topology optimization. I’m new to this topic, so I’m trying to learn. SIMP method (solid isotropic material with penalization) can I use this method when optimizing a concrete beam? Concrete is anisotropic material, so my question is, is the method valid for...
