Next, double click Design of Experiments and then highlight P1_DS_R and change the Lower Bound to 1 inch and the Upper Bound to 2.5 inches. Now, that the radius of the hole is properly constrained click on   . Note that the sampling points picked by the Design of Experiments algorithm are not linearly spaced. Next, click Update.
