Quick doubt about optimisation

  Good morning,
  
  I have a quick question about optimising a model in Ansys. If I want to seek a target for a variable, the tolerance that appears in Ansys is in percentage?
  That is what I mean. If my target is 0.067, the 5% of it would be around 0.0034. But should I directly put 0.05? Thank you so much

  Hi
  
  Tolerance should have the same units as the target so it should be 0.0034 mm, and 0.004 mm (tolerance) – also they seem to be Target/20 in your case.
  
  For more info and help see perhaps the help manual:
  Defining Optimization Objectives and Constraints (ansys.com)
  All the best

  Okay! Yes, in my case I want an error of 5 %, so that's what I've calculated. Thanks!
