Restarting selectASET

After an initial run in selectASET, the user may want to continue iteratively removing DOF. This can be easily accomplished by changing the Goal in the Solver Options region of the form. For example, starting with the form from Figure 6, the Goal was changed to 30 and the algorithm restarted by clicking Solve. This run started with the 50 DOF TAM from Figure 6 and removed 20 DOF to achieve the goal, greatly improving the run efficiency compared to starting from the original 251 DOF candidate set. The final selectASET form is shown in Figure 7. When restarting, the user cannot change any of the solver options except for the goal.
