# Study: 01_doe_landscape — Hydrotech Beam
> See [../../README.md](../../README.md) for project overview.
## Purpose
Map the design space of the Hydrotech sandwich I-beam to identify feasible regions, characterize variable sensitivities, and converge on a minimum-mass design that satisfies displacement and stress constraints.
## Quick Facts
| Item | Value |
|------|-------|
| **Objective** | Minimize mass (kg) |
| **Constraints** | Tip displacement ≤ 10 mm, Von Mises stress ≤ 130 MPa |
| **Design variables** | 4 (3 continuous + 1 integer) |
| **Algorithm** | Phase 1: LHS DoE (50 trials) → Phase 2: TPE (60-100 trials) |
| **Total budget** | 114156 NX evaluations |
| **Estimated compute** | ~45 hours |
| **Status** | DRAFT — Awaiting pre-flight checks and review |
## Design Variables
| ID | Name | Range | Type | Baseline |
|----|------|-------|------|----------|
| DV1 | `beam_half_core_thickness` | 1040 mm | Continuous | 20 mm |
| DV2 | `beam_face_thickness` | 1040 mm | Continuous | 20 mm |
| DV3 | `holes_diameter` | 150450 mm | Continuous | 300 mm |
| DV4 | `hole_count` | 515 | Integer | 10 |
## Baseline Performance
| Metric | Value | Constraint | Status |
|--------|-------|------------|--------|
| Mass | ~974 kg | minimize | Overbuilt |
| Tip displacement | ~22 mm | ≤ 10 mm | ❌ FAILS |
| VM stress | unknown | ≤ 130 MPa | ⚠️ TBD |
## Key Decisions
- **Single-objective** formulation (DEC-HB-001)
- **Two-phase** algorithm: LHS → TPE (DEC-HB-002)
- **True integer** handling for hole_count (DEC-HB-003)
- **Deb's feasibility rules** for constraint handling (infeasible baseline)
- **Baseline enqueued** as Trial 0 (LAC lesson)
## Files
| File | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `OPTIMIZATION_STRATEGY.md` | Full strategy document (problem formulation, algorithm selection, risk mitigation) |
| `atomizer_spec_draft.json` | AtomizerSpec configuration skeleton (DRAFT — open items must be resolved) |
| `README.md` | This file |
## Open Items Before Execution
1. Beam web length needed (geometric feasibility of hole patterns)
2. Displacement extraction method (sensor vs .op2 node parsing)
3. Stress extraction scope (whole model vs element group)
4. Baseline stress measurement
5. SOL 101 runtime benchmark
6. Corner test validation (16 bound combinations)
