A solid configurator declares the referenced volume region to be without any restrictions and fully free for optimization. In other words, any point of the corresponding region can become be either material or void during the optimization process.
The following obligatory data has to be provided.
Volume region
Defines the volume region to be configured by this configurator.
Initial material function value
Range: [-1.0, +1.0]
This parameter defines the initial value of the material function within the configured domain. Note that the initial design will be either material for IniTPar > 0 or void for IniTPar < 0.
Figure. Free region configured with IniTPar = +0.1
Figure. Free region configured with IniTPar = -0.1
