Description

LATLB

<AUTO, USER or CHECK>

Default = USER

This parameter is used to control the Automatic Reanalysis process at the end of Phase I in Lattice Optimization.

AUTO – Turns ON the Automatic Reanalysis Process.

USER (Default) – Turns OFF the Automatic Reanalysis Process and the user-defined LB value (or default of 0.1) is used to generate Lattice Structures for Phase II.

CHECK – This option can be used to run a single reanalysis iteration and a warning will be output which contains the percentage difference in compliance between the original and the reanalyzed structure. The CHECK option can be used to gain information about the compliance performance of the structure using the specified LB. If the compliance performance is not as expected, then the user may consider rerunning Phase 1 using AUTO to possibly find a better density Lower Bound (LB).

Refer to Automated Reanalysis in the User’s Guide for further information.
