Fusion 360 - Using static stress simulation to optimise a shape

This Powerpoint presentation provides instructions for creating a static stress simulation on a simple shape. Using the results of the simulation, you can then run a shape optimisation study to create the optimum dimensions for the shape within the given loads and movement. This is a great activity for those who have run a simulation before and are looking to combine with shape optimisation.  This could be used as a tutorial or printed as student instructions.
