Hi OpenFOAM folks,

I am looking for an open source way for topology optimization. As we have good experience with OpenFOAM for other tasks, I would prefer this.

Do you see a possibility to optimize a solid body under external pressure with OpenFOAM?

Maybe someone knows other interesting open source packages.

Thank you for your inputs.

Best regards,

sailor79

Hi Unni,

I have not come any further with this solver, which is due to my modified project. If I will work on this again I will post it here.
