Study is a special system object uniting data and elements required for running a specific calculation of a model. A study contains necessary settings of calculation parameters, as well as information on the used objects (solid bodies and/or shells), on the basis of which the finite element model is built, loads, restraints and finite element mesh. After completing calculations, the study also contains solution results. The type of a calculation to run is specified for a study: static, frequency, thermal, buckling analysis.
