Vector, Scalar, Support boundaries, Bool, Bool
Defines a maximum overhang constraint for the topology optimization process. The constraint precludes designs with an inclination angle below a specified amount with respect to the build plate.Inputs
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Build direction | Vector | Build direction and normal to the build plate. |
| Max angle | Scalar | Max overhang (inclination) angle of material with respect to the build plate. |
| Support boundaries | Boundary List | Support boundaries material can be placed onto. |
| Auto-detect support | Bool | Option to automatically detect boundary faces of the design space that can provide support for a given print direction and overhang angle. |
| Include passive | Bool | Option to include passive regions in the overhang constraint calculation. if selected, the optimizer will try to add the necessary support to the passive regions as dictated by the max angle input. if not selected, the optimizer will ignore the passive regions in the overhang constraint. |
