Shell Thickness in Design Study

Shell Thickness in Design Study

Shell Thickness in Design Study

(OP)
I'm simulating a plated part by creating surface bodies(shell elements)on a solid.I'd like to run a Design Study with different plating thicknesses in each Design Scenario. Is there a way to link the thickness for a Thin or Thick Shell to the Design Study?

(The only way I've found do is to treat the shell as a 2 layer composite with identical layers, and link the layer thickness to the Design Study)
