On the Model State tab, specify the assembly representations you want to use in relation to the simulation. Additionally, if the component is part of an iAssembly factory you can specify which member is presented in the simulation.
Access: |
Presented as the Create New Simulation dialog box when the Create Simulation command is used. Presented as the Edit Simulation Properties dialog box when you right-click the Simulation browser node and click Edit Simulation Properties. |
Name |
A user assigned name that defaults to Simulation, followed by a colon and a numeric indicator indexed from 1 to ‘n’. Each new simulation is named with the next higher value. The name is used for all user-visible references to the simulation. | |
Representations |
Each assembly simulation maintains an association to each representation type. As you activate different simulations, the corresponding representation is activated for that simulation. You can change the representation association at any time. If you do so after a simulation has been run, the results can be out of sync. If so, rerun the simulation. |
|
Design View |
Specifies the design view representation to use with the simulation. |
|
Positional |
Specifies the positional representation to use with the simulation. Use positional representations to place components into a specific position or relationship with other components. |
|
Model State |
Specifies the model state to use with the simulation. This selection can be a simplified version of the model thereby reducing simulation and meshing time. |
|
iAssembly | ||
Member |
Specifies the iAssembly member to be associated with the simulation. If the component is a factory member, the member selection is disabled. |
