Manufacturing process have direct impact of finished parts, affecting the global
thickness distribution. Hence, local stiffness can be influenced with those variation.
The study of the effect is enabled thru this capability.
The Thickness Study panel is as shown below. Figure 1.
The Thickness Study panel allows you to perform following
operations -
Select Parameter - a default selection list that shows
the selected parameter. In this case, Thickness is the
value.
Global Variation % - value entry field to provide the
parameter variation range
Select All, Unselect All, Reverse Selection - parameter
list selection options
Parameter list table - table listing the component and
their thickness in the model
Add - to add a parameter variation study to the study
table
Update - to update an existing study parameter
Parameter Variation Study table - a table listing the
study variations created
