Optimization options

(OP)
I'm experimenting with topology optimization in Femap 10.3. I am following the examples in the help documentation, however I do not see the optimization option in the analysis setup options list. Is this something to do with my licence or are there options to add in additional functions that need to be selected? Any help appreciated

RE: Optimization options

Dear Simonom,
Topology Optimization is an add-on module that requires an additional license, this is the reason why you don´t see the analysis menus.
Best regards,
Blas.

RE: Optimization options

In addition, the contract with the optimization technology provider has since been voided. One cannot currently purchase the topoolgy optimization module. The NX Nastran team is working on a replacement that should be available in a release or two.
