Topology Optimization App available?

Does anyone know if there anything available?

In an app or online?

Hi @david_bassetti I´ve never looked at this, but is it this what youre looking for?

@david_bassetti
The rumor out there is that onshape is working on simulation and I expect that if and when they get that accomplished the team might go on to work on some kind of generative design or something. However, I would not expect that for quite some time yet. 
There used to be some math apps in the app store (cad-wolf, swift-cal, and maybe another one or 2) they all seem to have disappeared. One of those was able to do some Topology Optimization I think it was run through Jupiter notebook somehow. I never used it and am not sure if it was any good. Perhaps @joe_dunne or @Aaron_Magnin could shed some light on this.

This is probably the closest thing to an app store solution: https://www.simscale.com/blog/2022/05/modeling-simulation-optimization-onshape-esteco-simscale/ 
There are definitely other topology optimization tools out there though: nTop, Altair, Creo. Feel free to reach out to discuss more... amagnin@ptc.com

Some one heard about another app for topology optimization?
Or any other ideas for free software beside Z88Arion?
