• Goal– Using Parameter Manager to investigate the
behavior of stress, mass, and deformation in the hitch receiver shown here as geometry parameters are changed during vertical loading.
• Model Description– Model is composed of a multibody part (3 bodies)
created in Design Modeler. Constraints and load are shown on the picture on right.
