Mechanical and thermal disturbances in optical systems are attracting increasing attention as accuracy requirements rise. For this reason, it is necessary to consider these disturbances at an early stage in the design process. This can be done by a holistic multiphysical opto-thermo-mechanical simulation. Such an approach is presented with a focus on efficient thermomechanical computation through a quasi-static approximation.
