How it works

In the first iteration of a product design, the user typically starts with an initial guess of a design, such as the linear taper in the illustrated example below. Selected parameters and constraints defining the structure (e.g. governing the taper shape) are then declared within Kallistos, as well as the quantity that needs to be optimized (the objective function). Finally the calculation is launched with one of the optimization algorithms available in Kallistos.
