About Constructing Optimized Geometry
You can construct a new model based on the results of an optimization study. An element density cutoff value of 0.5 is always used for constructing the optimized geometry. The last .pch (element density post-processing) file that was generated is used.
When you construct the geometry from the results of an optimization study, only the one component that you optimized is constructed. You can manually replace the original component in the assembly with the optimized component later.
There are two ways of constructing the optimized geometry:
• 
Tessellated Model Only The optimized geometry is constructed as a Facet feature, and the geometry that is excluded from the optimization is copied as independent geometry (the neutral feature). You cannot perform parametric functions on the facet feature, but you can perform basic edits.
A faceted model might be all you need for models with relatively simple geometry.
• 
Geometry Reconstruction The optimized portions are constructed as a Freestyle feature, and the geometry that is excluded from the optimization is copied as independent geometry. The Freestyle feature is solidified.
This method constructs a full b-rep (boundary representation) model. You can use Creo functionality on all the geometry in the newly constructed model.
The format for the name of the newly constructed model is <original_model_name>_optimizedXXX. If you create additional models, then the number changes. A new model does not overwrite previous models that are constructed from the results.
