Product-Specific Limitations

Some products have additional limitations when submitting design points updates to RSM:

Ansoft

Projects that include Ansoft systems return updated parameter values but do not return the detailed solution for the current design point.

Mechanical

Design point updates in RSM can fail for a class of problems (typically involving a Structural system linked to a Modal or other type of Mechanical system) that meet the following criteria:

  • A non-parameterized upstream Mechanical system provides solution data to a parameterized downstream Mechanical system and both systems share the same geometry/model.

  • Updates are performed via a pre-RSM local update.

The parameters for some of the design points are not computed and are marked as errors in the design points table.

Workarounds:

  • Select the Enable Legacy Solve check box (Tools > Options > Mechanical).

  • In the Parameter Set properties, set Pre-RSM Foreground Update to None and Job Submission to One Job for All Design Points.

Third-Party CAD Systems

Projects that include geometry parameters that rely on third-party CAD systems do not update the geometry unless the CAD system is accessible on the execution node.
