Overlay Simulation Data
A powerful feature of OptimumK is the ability to overlay data from a large number of design iterations. For example if you wanted to investigate how the toe angle of your front wheels varies during bump (i.e. Bump Steer) when the steering rack is located at different heights. You can run a number of simulations with the steering rack positioned in different locations and then overlay the results in a Graph or Channel Report.
Display Simulation Data in Graph/Report
All the simulations that have been simulated in a project are listed in the Simulation Data Selection Window.
To display Simulation Data;
1. Click the Data Selection button in the Analysis Tree Toolbar to display the Simulation Data Selection Window
2. Check the box next to the simulation that is to be displayed.
3. Click the Update Analysis Tools button to refresh the Analysis Tools.
The selected simulations will appear in all the Graphs and Reports that have been created in the Analysis Section. The default simulation name is the date and time that the simulation was run. If a new simulation is run the data from the new simulation will be displayed automatically in the Graphs and Reports.
Master Simulation
The Master Simulation is the simulation that is displayed in the 3D animation.
To change a simulation to the master simulation
1. Make sure the Simulation is Checked.
2. Select the Simulation name from the Simulation Data Selection Window.
3. Click the Master button in the Simulation Properties Toolbar.
4. Click the Update Analysis Tools button to refresh the Analysis Tools.
The selected simulation will now become the Master Simulation. The letter M will appear to the right of the simulation name.
Right-Click Options
The following options can be accessed by right-clicking on a Simulation name.
Change Color – Changes the color of the selected Simulations Graph lines and Report text.
Master – Sets the selected Simulation to the Master Simulation.
Export to Csv – Exports the Simulation data channels to a Csv file for use in Microsoft Excel.
Rename Simulation – Changes the Simulation name.
Delete Simulation – Deletes the selected Simulation.
