With topology optimization, you don\u2019t begin with a design at all. Instead, a designer within NX CAD models the design space simulates it based on expected loading conditions. The result is a completely new part that meets structural performance requirements and is lighter than the existing design. Watch this video below to gain a better understanding of topology optimization.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-embed-center video-embed\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"embedly-embed\" title=\"Video\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.embedly.com\/widgets\/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2F7R-UqwXbaNw%3Ffeature%3Doembed&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D7R-UqwXbaNw&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2F7R-UqwXbaNw%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=fad07bfa4bd747d3bdea27e17b533c0e&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube\" width=\"200\" height=\"112\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>If you\u2019re someone who enjoys learning about everything in one sitting, then be sure to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.plm.automation.siemens.com\/en\/campaigns\/single_topic.cfm?Component=255185&amp;ComponentTemplate=186312%C2%A0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">watch this webinar<\/a>\u00a0to learn beyond the benefits of simulation-driven design.<\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome back to the third part of our simulation-driven design blog series!
