Parameter Management

Workshop 9.1–Goals

Goal:

-Use the Workbench Parameter Manager (available from the Project page) to setup multiple scenarios and solve all at one time.

.

Workshop 9.1–Project Schematic

Open the Project page.

From the Units menu verify:

-Project units are set to “Metric (kg, mm, s, C, mA, mV).

-“Display Values in Project Units” is checked (on).

1.From the Toolbox double click “Static Structural” to create a new system.

2.RMB the geometry cell and “Import Geometry” and browse to “Lever.x_t”.

3.Double click the “Model” cell to open the Mechanical application.

4.Set the working unit system:

“Units > Metric (mm, kg, N, s, mV, mA)”.

5.Apply constraints to the model (highlight “Static Structural” branch (A5):

a.Select the surface of the large hole.

b.RMB > Insert > Cylindrical Support.

c.In the detail window change the “Tangential” constraint to “Free”.

d.Highlight the bottom face of the vertical cylinder.

e.RMB > Insert > Fixed Support.

6.Apply Loads to the model:

a.Select the surface of the smaller hole shown below.

b.RMB > Insert > Bearing Load.

c.In the Details of “Bearing Load”, switch to the component method.

d.Enter a magnitude of 5000 N in the Y direction.

e.Toggle the ‘P’ next to “Y Component” to flag the load as parametric.
