Sensitivity Analysis of a Truss Tower

Application ID: 72101


Sensitivity analysis is an efficient way of computing the gradient of an objective function with respect to many control variables. This example uses the pitch and yaw in the top of a truss tower as objective functions. It shows how to compute the sensitivity of these angles with respect to changes in the individual truss member diameters.

This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
