September 9, 2025 11:00 AM (Eastern US) Across every industry, engineers face ever-shrinking time-to-market demands, often needing more time to optimize their designs fully. Traditional CAD and simulation tools fall short of enabling practical usage of optimization and generative design due to persistent bottlenecks in geometry regeneration, meshing, and long solve times. These limitations prevent engineers from fully leveraging the design space while meeting project timelines. In this presentation, we introduce a new paradigm in mechanical design optimization that integrates implicit modeling, meshless simulation methods, and machine learning to address these challenges. Through diverse use cases, we demonstrate how these techniques unlock the practical use of optimization while adhering to project timelines. Attendees will gain insights into the practical deployment of optimization workflows in industrial, fast-paced, multi-disciplinary settings.
