Generative design workflows for manufacturable mechanical components
I like meeting engineering teams at the point where the CAD model stops being enough. My articles walk through generative design workflows step by step: framing loads, selecting constraints, pruning design spaces, and checking the results against simulation and shop-floor reality. I keep the tone practical because I know readers are balancing elegant optimization with deadlines, materials, and certification risk.
