Hello all
I need to run an optimization analysis that requires LDA. The goal is to minimize or maximize a specific measure whatever is its value in any of the "user defined output steps".
_ Hopefully I´m clear in transmitting the main idea.
Is it possible to bring each step´s result into this optimization? So far only the last LDA result is available for the goal. So it does not matter if I have set the LDA output steps at “-1”, “0” and “1” because only the last master step result (1) is taken by the optimization.
After a quick search I could not find any topic closer to this case although this question would apply to almost any version of ProE. Thus sorry if this is an old topic. Currently I´m using Creo Simulate 2.0
The closest that I can do is to run one optimization and set a maximum/minimum allowed valued for each step being each "step" a stand-alone LDA analysis with a specific input.
However this is not a real optimization since I do not know in advance what is the maximum/minimum design limit of the system - what can take a lot of time as it is like to do a rough optimization "by hand" or to run a set of "optimal" results at each step. In both cases this would requires a lot of processing time and still would not be a truly optimization.
I do have BMX if it can help in anyway but so far I would like to use Simulate only.
Thank you in advance for any feedback.
