How matlab reads ansys files

I used ansys_aas toolbox to link between ansys workbench and matlab but i'm confused of how can the matlab reads the chart in ansys and make optimization to get minimum error between desired and actual curves

Think you'll have to go to an ANSYS support platform ... the toolkit doesn't seem to have any documentation supplied with the download that I can find...

Hello,

Here are few steps that you can try to achieve this:

• You can use ANSYS scripting or the workbench's export functionality to output the simulation results/charts in a format that MATLAB can read, such as CSV or Excel files.
• Use MATLAB functions such as 'readtable' or 'xlsread' to import the exported ANSYS data.
• Define an objective function in MATLAB that calculates the error between the desired and actual curves. This could be a least squares error or any other metric suitable for your analysis.
• Now, you can choose an optimization algorithm suitable for your problem, such as fmincon or ga.

options = optimoptions('fmincon', 'Display', 'iter');
optimalParams = fmincon(@objectiveFunction, initialParams, [], [], [], [], lb, ub, [], options);

You can plot the desired and actual curves in MATLAB to visualize the optimization results.

Hope this helps!
