| Modeling Object | |
|---|---|
| Name Seed | Sets the prefix for the names of all the created design variables.For example, if you enter Multiple Create DV as the seed name, you can get the design variables that are named as follows: Multiple Create DV MAT1 1 A 91007 and Multiple Create DV MAT1 1 E 91008 |
| Design Variable Type | Specifies the type of the design variable modeling objects that are created.PhysicalCreates Design Variable — Physical modeling objects.MaterialCreates Design Variable — Material modeling objects. |
| Properties | |
| Card Name | Sets the name of Nastran card that is created when the solution is exported to the Nastran solver. |
| Design Variable (DESVAR) | Sets the initial value, lwer bound, and upper bound values for all design variables. |
| Relation (DVPREL1) | Defines the fields that will be optimized.TypeSpecifies the physical property type if Design Variable Type is set to Physical.Specifies the material card if Design Variable Type is set to Material.Physical property list or material card listLists the physical properties or material cards of specified type that are available in the SOL 200 Model Update solution. You select the physical properties or material cards that you want to optimize.Property field list or material field listLists the physical property fields or material card fields that can be optimized.
