Parameters and Non-Optimization Design Studies

You can define parameters and expressions for subsequent use as a variable in a Design Study. You define a parameter by a name, type, unit, and value or expression. A parameter can relate to geometry or analysis. Once you define a parameter of a certain type, you can use it to define input of the same type. For example, you can define Force1 as a force parameter. When defining force values, you can link Force1 to any force value field instead of entering a numeric value. Defining Force1  as a variable in a Non-Optimization Design Study, automatically changes the applied force.
