To Create a Sensitivity Analysis
1. Click > 
Sensitivity Analysis. The Sensitivity dialog box opens.
Sensitivity Analysis. The Sensitivity dialog box opens.2. Create a new or open an existing study.
◦ To create a new study, click 
. Accept a default name or type a name for the study.
. Accept a default name or type a name for the study.◦ To open an existing study, click 
. Select the name of the study from a list.
. Select the name of the study from a list.3. Under Variable Selection, select design variables as follows:
◦ To select a variable dimension, click Dimension and select a dimension in the model.
 | You cannot select driven dimensions. They appear on the left side of a relation. |
◦ To select an independent model parameter, click Parameter. An independent model parameter is a parameter on the right hand side of a relation.
4. Specify the range for design variables by typing the minimum and maximum values in the respective fields in the dialog box.
5. Under Parameters To Plot, click the selection arrow button and select any of the previously created analysis feature parameters from the Parameters dialog box.
6. Click OK to return to the Sensitivity dialog box.
| | • If you have a license for Creo Simulate, Creo Simulate parameters and analyses that have been previously defined also appear in the Parameters list box. After you select Creo Simulate parameters or analyses and click Compute, the system starts running multiple Creo Simulate analyses. • If you have a license for Mechanism Dynamics, dynamics measures created in Mechanism Dynamics are available under Goals and Design Constraints. |
7. Under Steps, enter the number of calculations you want to make between the minimum and maximum values.
8. Optionally, to set the default range for design variables, click > .
9. Optionally, to see the model change as each value is calculated, select the Animate model checkbox. The following options are available only after Animate model is selected.
◦ Select Lock zoom level to prevent the model view from changing between captured frames.
◦ Select Capture analysis playback to automatically save an image or video frame at each sensitivity step and then click Compute.
The Capture dialog box opens; you can set the output directory, file naming, format, and resolution for the image or video being captured. Click OK to begin analysis and capture.
10. Click Compute or click 
. For each selected parameter, a graph window opens to display the calculations.
