2. Specify analysis file.
Now define CIRCPLATE as the analysis file for the probabilis-
tic analysis. PDS uses CIRCPLATE to create a file for perform-
ing analysis loops. PDS uses the CIRCPLATE input and output
parameters as RVs and RPs.
Main Menu > Prob Design>-Analysis File-Assign
Choose the file CIRCPLATE from your working directory. Use
the Browse button if you choose.
