Design Variables with Laminate Layup
When you create laminate layup shell properties, design variables enable you to control such aspects of the laminate as layer thickness and orientation.
For example, you can define an optimization study and designate the thickness of a laminate layer as a design variable, and then ask Creo Simulate to find the minimum thickness that will preserve laminate strength.
For more information on the laminate layup version of the Shell Properties dialog box, see Laminate Layup.
