initial/boundary conditions set as step dependent

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

In a study with multiple steps, I hope to use different initial/boundary conditions. If initial/boundary conditions can be set as step dependent, all steps can be run in one go during the same study. Can initial/boundary conditions be set as step dependent?

Hi Carl,

The reply here is the same as the one Henrik gave you to another question:

You can use Modify model configuration for study step in the settings for the study step.

If, however, it is only about having different sets of loads (or constraints), you may find the load case handling functionality more natural.

Best regards,

Magnus

Thank you Dr Magnus, where can we find the 'load case handling functionality'?

Take a look at, for example, this model:
