Session

Session Commands can be added to the optimization sequence to apply a specific operation. The session commands can be added under a Design Variable Task Item or at the main root of the Optimization Task. In this example a session command will be added to the main root which will smooth the mesh of the model after the shape modification.

Right click on the Optimization Task and select New>Session Command in the pull-down menu that appears.
A new Task Item is defined at the end of the Optimization Task.
Drag and drop the new Task Item one step above since this command should be executed before the final output of the FE model.
Right click on the Session Command Item and select EDIT from the pull-down menu.
In the window that appears are listed all the available session commands. Select the command “MESH>SHELL MESH>SMOOTH:” and press ENTER to confirm.
Optionally change the name of the Task Item by clicking on it twice. The Smooth command will be executed after the morphing of the model and the change of the thickness according to the defined Design Variables.
