Generative Design Challenges Old Paradigms from the Parametric Era
November 12, 2018
The genesis of generative design can be traced back to simulation software, with topology optimization as the intermediary evolutionary step. Generative design software uses time-tested structural, fluid and thermal simulation technologies; however, instead of asking the user to provide the target geometry, generative design software suggests and recommends appropriate geometry or topology based on user input.
