In the Define Output Responses step, you can create the output responses that will be used for the current study in the DOE, Fit, Optimization or Stochastic approaches.
The output responses may be defined using a combination of results read or extracted from a file and input variable values. These equations may use the functions available or external functions, including HyperMath and Python functions. HyperStudy uses HyperWorks readers and hence can read the binary output files of most popular CAE solvers. Additional data can be read using custom external readers and import templates. External Readers, External Functions and Import Templates may be manually added in the preference file or registered through the Edit menu. An example of registering an external function is HS-1040: Registering HyperMath Functions in HyperStudy.
In the Define Output Responses step, you can manually define output responses, or automatically define output responses by extracting data from the output files generated during the evaluation.
1. | Click Add Output Response. |
Tip: | To create multiple output responses simultaneously, click-and-hold Add Output Response. In the pop-up window, enter the number of output responses to create and then click Add. |
2. | In the HyperStudy - Add dialog, enter a label for the output response and click OK. |
3. | Define the output response. |
• | Manually enter the expression in the Expression column. |
• | Build an expression using the Expression Builder, which can be accessed by clicking in the Expression column. As you define an output response, a mathematical expression appears in the Evaluate Expression field. |
4. | Click Evaluate Expressions to evaluate the expressions for the nominal run. |
|
1. | Drag-and-drop an output file, from the Directory, into the work area, or click File Assistant. |
2. | In the File Assistant wizard, use the guided set of dialogs to produce a completely defined output response. |
The output file is automatically loaded if you dragged-and-dropped the output file into the work area.
3. | Click Evaluate Expressions to evaluate the expressions for the nominal run. |
|
|
1. | In the work area, select the output response to delete. |
2. | Click Remove Output Response. |
Note: If the output response is in use in some approaches, a warning message prompts confirmation.
