The acronym APDL originated from “Ansys Parametric Design Language,” so it’s natural to assume that parameters are a key reason why APDL is so popular and powerful. Parametric models are developed using parameters. Parameters can be used to retrieve results from the simulation to report results in an automated fashion or to perform actions based on the results. In this video, let’s learn more about parameters and their possibilities using APDL scripting in Ansys Mechanical APDL.
