The Conservative Bracket

Through topology optimization and reverse engineering, I aimed for an optimal shape design. You can view my progressive version too. The part weighs 0.52 lbs (395 g). Load case 1's highest von Mises stress is 122 KSI (841 MPa), while load cases 2 and 3 have stresses of 120 KSI (826 MPa) and 101 KSI (696 MPa) respectively. The buildup direction was chosen to avoid surfaces with angles lower than 45° relative to the build plate. Supports, which can be ignored if desired, weigh 0.062 lbs (28 g). For more details, check the pictures.
