Trend Tracker Overview
Trend Tracker helps you detect trends in results from different iterations of a static study. Results are presented in a manner that compares a baseline to subsequent iterations.
Highlights include:
Typical workflow:
-
Run a static study.
-
Right-click the study and select Trend Tracker to enable this functionality.
-
Right-click Trend Tracker and select Set Baseline.
The current results become the baseline (iteration 1) for weight, displacement, stress, and so on.
-
Change the geometry, loads, restraints, or any other features.
-
Right-click Trend Tracker and select Add Tracked Data Graph to add a new
workflow sensitive simulation data sensor
to track results.
-
Run the static study.
The software appends the new results to the tracked iterations as a new iteration by default.
-
Review the results:
-
Right-click Trend Tracker and select View Gallery to see the change in displacement and stress.
-
Double-click one of the graphs such as Mass to compare iterations to the baseline.
-
Double-click the Trend Journal to read a report.
You can disable and delete the Trend Tracker information. Right-click the study name and select Delete Trend Tracker to delete Trend Tracker from the Simulation study tree.
