Hi

I am trying to perform non linear optimisation that requires interfacing between matlab and ansys. I have learn't from ansys guides how to start ansys using a batch file which i can run from matlab but what I don't know is how to alter variables for the ansys run.

The optimisation is the minimisation of mass varying three dimensions subject to a max eq stress and deformation. I need to input dimensions into ansys and output the stresses and deformations to Matlab.

I have been unable to find much on the internet about how to do this and no examples what so ever. As I have never done this before-probably a bit advanced but you gotta start somewhere........

Thanks
