Hi, I would like to create a flat torsional spring (flexible elements in between) with a fixed parameters as: outer diameter=85mm,inner diameter =10mm, torque applied on the spring = 100Nm and desired stiffness to be displayed by the spring as 280Nm/rad, material young's modulus 76Mpa. Thickness and the design space between these boundary conditions are variable.I am new to Ansys and I would like to know if this software can be used in such a way so as to create a geometry from scratch that achieves this purpose. maybe topology optimization can be used for this but i am not sure what objectives and constraints can be used??i have attached a photo of what i am trying to achieve. I will appreciate anyone who has some useful advice regarding thishttps://us.v-cdn.net/6032193/uploads/D87IYB9A353U/20201017-143915.jpghttps://forum.ansys.com/discussion/21298/can-ansys-give-you-a-completely-new-geometry-from-scratch-for-a-spring-with-a-target-stiffness
The moderators don't like duplicate questions. I expect they will close one of the discussions.n
