Abstract
An interface between SDRC I-DEAS and the GENESIS structural analysis and optimization code is developed and discussed in the context of design optimization applications. The interface creates almost all design data which GENESIS requires to perform size, shape, and topology optimization in the I-DEAS environment so that designers can easily create optimization design data. An application problem is solved using unique features of these tools. First, the problem is defined and solved as topology optimization to obtain preliminary design. Then the initial design is created using the first solution and CAD tool. Finally, the design is refined with shape optimization.
