The Material Sweep (
) study step is a special case of Parametric Sweep, where the solver sweeps over materials defined under a Switch node defined under Global Definitions>Materials (see Switch for Materials). After running a material sweep, you can select from the swept materials from a Switch list in the Data section of plot nodes, for example, to postprocess and visualize the material sweep.

After running a material sweep, you can select from the swept materials from a Switch list in the Data section of plot nodes, for example, to postprocess and visualize the material sweep.Add information to the table for each column: Switch, Cases, and Case numbers. Use the Move Up (
), Move Down (
), Add (
), and Delete (
) buttons under the table to organize the data. Use the Add (
) button to add a list of existing material Switch nodes in the Switch column. From the list under Cases, select All to sweep over all material nodes under the switch. For User defined, define a list of materials to switch between as positive integers, representing the first material from the top under the Switch node as 1, the second function as 2, and so on.
