Simulation 2: About this tutorial

Parametric static analysis.

Skill Level Level 3 special interest
Time Required 20 minutes
Tutorial Files Used PivotBracket.ipt

The second simulation is a parametric study on the same model. Parametric studies vary the parameters of the model to update geometry and evaluate various configurations of a design. In this structural static analysis, the goal is to minimize the weight of the model.

Objectives

  • Copy a simulation.
  • Use analysis parameters to evaluate how to refine the weight of the model.
  • Generate configurations of the parametric dimension geometry.
  • Modify design constraints and view results based on those changes.

Prerequisites

  • Completed Simulation 1 (Modal Analysis), the first part of this tutorial set.
  • See the Help topic “Getting Started” for further information.
