Start the tool.
The first field defines the Study which includes the to be calculated Scenarios. Per default it is filled with “GD Study 1”, if another Study hosts the Scenarios, simply change the name in the field. Be sure to type in the exact name of the Study.
Choose if the simulation is to be started in the Apex Generative Design GUI or if the Scenarios are to be exported and simulated in the Command Line.
Keep in mind that the Post-Processing window will be empty until the optimisation is finished.If the Scenarios are exported and simulated in the Command Line, the option to reimport the results can be chosen.
The simulation in the Command Line is set to use the standard installation folder of the GD-Engine (Program Files/MSC.Software/MSC Apex Generative Design/…). If it is installed at another place the box “use own GD_Engine path“ needs to be checked and a path in the corresponding window needs to be defined.
