TOSCA Structure.bead supports the engineer in finding the layout of bead stiffeners for sheet metal components. For complex geometries with realistic loading conditions a bead location and orientation with optimal stiffness and dynamic behaviour is determined automatically.
Your benefit:
- Save time through fully automated bead optimization in only 2-3 solver iterations
- Obtain clear bead layouts for complex models
- Determine innovative, directly producible bead designs through consideration of manufacturing restrictions during optimization
- Increase stiffness and improve dynamic behaviour of your sheet metal components
Optimization result with bead layout (increased natural frequencies)
