Abstract
A method, system, and apparatus for managing a part design. The method comprises processing, by a computer system, a finite element model for a part to refine a part topology and generate a number of configurations, in which each configuration has a part weight and a number of different parameters that change the part weight and meet a specification for the part. The method analyzes a part geometry model and a selected manufacturing process to estimate a resource use for manufacturing the part. In response to determining that the part weight or the resource use for a configuration is unacceptable, the method iteratively edits the configuration, refines the part topology to generate an updated configuration, and analyzes the selected manufacturing process to estimate the resource use, until an optimized configuration is identified. The method outputs a file for the optimized configuration, enabling manufacturing of the part using the part design.
