Generating Amplitudes from Fields in optiSLang for Use in a Simulation

The File menu option Export for simulation > Generate amplitudes from fields in optiSLang exports the files that are required by optiSLang to calculate shape amplitudes from field data. You use the AmplitudesFromField_SoS custom integration node to return the shape amplitudes as scalar parameters in optiSLang. You can provide field data in any format that oSP3D handles:

  • Node data from measurement in CSV format

  • File output data from your favorite CAE solver

To generate amplitudes from fields in optiSLang:

  1. Add at least one file containing your field data.

  2. On the first wizard page, set the path of the reference design.

    The reference design is a single design directory serving as a template for all design directories.

  3. Select the field quantities to be imported for shape amplitude calculation by selecting the appropriate check boxes.

  4. Optionally, select a mesh-mapping algorithm.

  5. On the second wizard page, select an output path for template folder.

The template folder contains all files needed to run the AmplitudesFromField_SoS custom integration node in optiSLang.
