L-Shape Bracket

An L-shaped structural bracket: a 60 × 60 square domain with the upper-right quadrant voided (non-design region). The top edge is fixed and a downward point load is applied at the mid-right edge.

Running

ggp optimize --preset l_shape

To save the density image:

ggp optimize --preset l_shape --output-dir docs/_static

The preset uses the AMJax FEM solver by default (fem_solver: amjax).

Result

Optimized L-shape bracket topology

Optimized density field after 400 MMA iterations (40 % volume fraction).
