Simulate on Parts and Assembly

Simulate features (loads, rigids, constraints, mesh settings, etc.) from a part level analysis also are brought into assemblies. I want to have separate analyses on some of the parts themselves and my assembly as a whole.

 

Is there a simple way to hide all the simulate features from the part analysis when I open simulate in my assembly?

To follow up this post.

Does anyone have a method to analyze individual parts and assemblies separately? So far the best method I have is to do a save-as and store two separate parts, one for for the individual part analysis and one for the full assembly analysis however this certainly can't be the most efficient way. Especially when any changes need to be made...

A couple ideas:

 

Part Simplified Reps to de-feature parts for analysis but not lose associativity:

Similarly, I also use models with Inheritance Features so I can analyze parts separately without affecting the original design model, and I can update with changes to the original model.
