SystemModelSimulationData

SystemModelSimulationData[…]

represents simulation data from functions such as SystemModelSimulate etc.

Details and Options

  • SystemModelSimulationData provides ways of summarizing, exploring and extracting simulation results.
  • SystemModelSimulationData is generated by SystemModelSimulate and SystemModelSimulateSensitivity.
  • A SystemModelSimulationData[…] object sim can be used to retrieve properties through sim["property"].
  • sim["Properties"] gives a list of available properties.
  • For simulations with dynamic graphics, sim["Diagram",t] returns Graphics at time t.
  • Dynamic graphics for component "c1.c2..." are shown with sim["Diagram",{"c1","c2",…},t].
  • Properties of the simulated model: »
  • "Descriptions"variable and parameter descriptions
    "Model"SystemModel object of the simulated model
    "ModelName"fully qualified name of the model
    "ParameterNames"parameter variables in the simulation data
    "PlotNames"names of plots in model
    "StateVariables"continuous state variables in the simulation data
    "VariableNames"time-dependent variables in the simulation data
  • For variable and parameter lists, sim[{property,patt}] returns the elements of property whose names match the string pattern patt.
  • Properties specific to the simulation: »
  • "SimulationInterval"simulation interval {tmin,tmax}
    "SimulationLength"simulation length tmax-tmin
    "NumberOfEvents"number of events in the simulation
    "Events"time points where events occurred
    "Samples"time points when variables were sampled
  • Properties related to values of variables and parameters: »
  • {v1,v2,…}simulation for v1, v2, …
    {p1,p2,…}parameter value for p1, p2, …
    "RawData",{v1,v2…}time-value pairs for v1, v2, …
    "Audio",{v1,v2…}Audio object for v1, v2, ...
  • Simulation results for variables vi are returned as functions that can be evaluated for any time t. »
  • Simulation results can be evaluated at a point t with sim[{v1,v2,…},t].
  • In sim["RawData",{v1,…}], events are indicated by duplicate time-value pairs at the same time point.
  • Complete lists of simulation results and parameter values: »
  • "VariableValues"simulations {v1->f1,…}
    "ParameterValues"parameters {p1->c1,…}
  • Lists of simulation results from sim can be evaluated at a point t with sim["VariableValues",t].
  • Variables depend on parameters vi[t,pj]; the sensitivity of a variable to a parameter pj is the partial derivative ∂pjvi[t,pj]. Sensitivities can be computed using SystemModelSimulateSensitivity. »
  • Sensitivities can be accessed using {{vi,pi},…}.
  • Properties related to sensitivities include:
  • "SensitivityNames"variable parameter sensitivities
    "SensitivityValues"sensitivities {{vi,pi}->gi,j,…}
  • The option TargetUnits controls the unit of simulation results:
  • Noneno unit (default)
    "Unit"unit defined in model
    "DisplayUnit"display unit defined in model
    unitexplicit unit
    {unitt,unit}units for time and data
