It's been awhile since I've tried it using Ansys, but last time I did
it was too much of an IQ test to fight through the Ansys commands on
independent variables, objective functions, and alike. I'll typically
parameterize my geometry and do some sensitivity studies to get me
pointed in the right direction of a BETTER if not optimized design.

Maybe it's much simpler now than in 5.5!
