Parametric Sweep

Use the Parametric Sweep study step when you want to find the solution to a sequence of stationary or time-dependent problems that arise when you vary some parameters of interest.

model.study(stdname).create(fname, "Parametric");

model.study(stdname).feature(fname).set(pname,value);

The following properties are available.
