Investigate the impact of modifying your geometry. Save your geometry changes as CAD modification variables and include these variables in a Parametric Study.
To investigate the impact of modifying a CAD face, or group of faces, create a CAD modification and include it in a Parametric Study. This variable includes the set of CAD faces to be modified, coupled with a definition of the type of modification to be applied (move in the normal direction, or move along a specified vector).
The Parametric Study Builder automatically recognizes saved CAD Modifications as variables. You can enter a numerical value that defines the distance and/or direction that you wish to move the selected CAD faces. The Parametric Study Optimization routine then creates a study for each value of each variable, meshes the new geometry and runs the specified analysis to provide you with information about how best to optimize your design.
