Parametric modeling with LabelMover

Change a model parameter, solve automatically, and compare the results.

LabelMover is a QuickField tool for parametric study of existing models. Based on ActiveField, it modifies geometry or physical properties, runs calculations, and presents the results.

Workflow: Change parameters → Solve automatically → Compare results

Solenoid actuator model Solenoid Actuator — one model, three analysis modes
Three modes of LabelMover
Mode 1

Serial Analysis

Generates a series of QuickField problems with specified alterations of the model geometry or physical properties, solves them, and presents the results as a table or graph.

In the Solenoid Actuator example, the plunger position is changed automatically to produce the complete force–stroke characteristic.

Mode 2

Tolerance Analysis

Studies how variations in geometry and material properties affect the calculated results.

LabelMover generates and solves models with the required variations, then calculates the distribution and statistical characteristics of the output results.

Mode 3

Optimization

Adjusts multiple model parameters to reach a specified engineering goal. Any value provided by the QuickField postprocessor may be used as a maximum, minimum, or target.

The actuator example finds the core-window height that gives the maximum mechanical force. External optimization applications are also supported.
