Hi Thomas,

 

theoretically yes, you can couple any type of analysis you want to optimize. But this will depend on ANSYS, not on GH. To be more explicit, what the script does is 1) exporting the geometry on which you want to perform your structural (CFD, thermal, etc.) analysis, 2) firing ANSYS and invoking a Python script which runs the simulation on the new geometry. The optimization parameter is then automatically exported from ANSYS with a post-processing APDL Macro and read in GH.

Hope I made it clear enough.

 

Cheers,

r

Great,

Could we use your GH ANSYS link to analyse wind in real feedback, and use galapagos to optimise a geometry ?
