NX topology optimization with inertia relief

Hi,

From what I have read so far it seems topology optimization in NX 8 does not work with inertia relief ON. I was trying to set up a topology optimization on a part with loads imported from NX Motion, similar to what can be done with hyperworks using Equivalent Static Load Method.

Is there any methodology maybe on how to apply constraints to obtain results approximately similar to an analysis with no constraint and inertia relief ON? or is there any way to use inertia relief with topology/shape optimization?

Thanks.

Kind Regards,
Marc
