Updating Mesh for Topology Optimization

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello!

I am trying to implement an algorithm using LiveLink for MATLAB in order to perform a topology optimization. In short, I want to "disable" elements that verify a certain condition (ex: Von Mises stress < XXX MPa). Is there any way to, in the mesh generation process, disable a specific element? If so, how do I update the model in order to use the new mesh?

Thank you in advance!
