Run design optimization on a CAD imported model

Run design optimization on a CAD imported model

Run design optimization on a CAD imported model

(OP)
Hello,

I have build a solid in inventor. I want to optimize the model in ANSYS, so I need the ANSYS code of the geometry.  If I import a file into ANSYS (i´m importing .SAT and  x_t parasolid) the geometry code does not show.

Do you know how can I save a part in inventor with ANSYS code, or any way to convert any CAD format to ANSYS code?

Also, do you know any other way to run design optimization without editing the ANSYS input file?


I appreciate any help,

 regards,

Hugo Silva
