Study parameters

Study parameters

This facility can only be used in Parameter or Simulation mode. It allows you to set up parameters for a batch run. With a batch run, a number of runs are initiated with different sets of parameters. These runs are performed sequentially. This creates a series of results files (and Jacobian files, if linear analysis is performed).

A batch run is initiated in the following stages:

• The characteristics of the parameter values are defined in Parameter mode by selecting Study parameters from the Configure menu.

• The batch run is specified in Simulation mode in the Run Parameters dialog box through the corresponding radio button.

• Plots of batch runs are produced by converting standard plots to batch plots.

An example of this type of run is given in the Batch runs and selective save chapter of the Tutorial manual.

Note

You can also use study parameters and the Study Manager to create DOE, Optimization or Monte Carlo studies. For more information, refer to the Design Exploration manual
