-
From the Simulate section of the action bar,
click Chebyshev Type 1 Filter
.
- Optional:
Enter a descriptive
Name.
-
Enter a value for the Cutoff frequency, which is the frequency
above which the filter attenuates at least half of the input signal.
-
Enter a value for the Order, which is a measure of the
transition band.
A higher value for the filter order results in a narrower transition band. However,
there is a computational cost. As the order increases, the performance declines.
-
Specify the Pass-band ripple factor, which specifies how much
oscillation you will allow in exchange for an improved filter response.
- Optional:
From the Determine bounding value options, select one of the
following:
Option | Description |
---|
Maximum |
Applies a bounding limit for the maximum. |
Minimum |
Applies a bounding limit for the minimum. |
Absolute Maximum |
Applies a bounding limit for the absolute maximum. |
None |
Does not apply a bounding limit. |
-
Optional: Enter a value for the Bounding value
limit, which enforces an upper or lower bound for the variables in the output
request.
-
Optional: Select Stop analysis upon reaching limit
to stop the analysis if any of the variables reach the specified limit.
Note:
Along with the expected output variables, Mechanical Scenario Creation writes an additional field frame to the output file when this option is
selected.
-
Optional: From the Invariant options, specify
whether this filter definition applies directly to the first- or second-order invariant.
Invariants are tensor properties that do not change. For some variables, you can apply
the filter directly to the first- or second-order invariant.

Click OK.
The specified Chebyshev Type I filter is now available when you select a filter type
when creating output requests.
