Create a constraint based on a result measure

You can create a geometry optimization constraint based on responses extracted from your analysis results, such as displacement, stress, strain, temperature, and so on.

1. In the Geometry Optimization dialog box, select Define Constraints.

2. Click Create Constraints .

3. From the Type list, select Result Measure.

4. Click Result Measures .

5. In the Result Measure Manager dialog box, click New .

6. In the Result Measure dialog box, select the solution and the type of results to extract for the optimization response. For steps to create a result measure, see Create and update a result measure.Caution: Geometry Optimization does not support result measures with Model Subset Selection set to Finite Element.

7. After defining the result measure, click OK to return to the Result Measure Manager dialog box and then click Close to return to the Geometry Optimization dialog box.

8. In the Limit Type group, select whether you will define an Upper or Lower limit for the constraint to apply.

9. In the Limit Value box, enter the upper or lower limit.

10. Click Next to proceed to the Define Design Variables step of the optimization setup.
