Classic CAD programs have always been sophisticated geometry-sculpting engines, with the designer using his or her industry experience to determine the final shape.
However, the emerging generative design (GD) applications, augmented with on-demand computing, promise a new breed of intelligent CAD, capable of conceiving designs the designer doesn’t even know he or she could consider. In the first episode of this three-part webinar series, we examine how close we have come to this vision.
Tune in to learn:
- How can the generative design (GD) software’s proposals be better than the ideas from a veteran designer with domain expertise and years of field work?
- Where does the workstation end and the cloud begin? What are the GD scenarios where on-demand cloud computing is necessary?
- Can the GD algorithm learn the preferences, quirks, philosophy, and habits of a particular designer to reflect them in the proposed design options?
- Can we trust that the designs proposed by a GD algorithm will stand up to pressures, turbulence, and heat loads as expected?
- Currently what are the limitations of GD? Can the algorithms handle lattices and honeycomb structures? Can it intelligently exclude topology unsuitable for certain manufacturing methods, materials, or budgets, for example?
