Use move limit
Choose whether a manual bound limits the change in a design variable at each update.
Choose whether a manual bound limits the change in a design variable at each update.
Where to find it
System Solver → Optimization → GCMMA/MMA → Use move limit
How to use it
First solve the starting design. Change this control deliberately and compare convergence, evaluations and feasibility with the previous run.
Initial value
Manual.
Choices: Off, Manual.
Result
Compare the final objective, constraint values, design and termination reason together.
Troubleshooting
Limits on iterations or evaluations can end a search before an optimum is reached. Inspect feasibility and termination reason, then verify the final design with a solve.
