SimulationX - Improving Model Computation Time

This course provides a deep insight on the influencing parts on model computation time, on how to detect them and how to improve your SimulationX model. Several aspects as natural frequencies analysis as well as the usage of the Performance Analyzer are discussed to find causes for performance decrease. Another aspect is choosing the right solver with an extra chapter for real time capability. The content starts with theoretical overview followed by practical applications with SimulationX.

DESCRIPTION

In this course, the participants will learn possible root causes for performance decrease and how to improve them. To set the scene, the course starts with an overview on influences on computation time. The natural frequency analysis and the tool Performance Analyzer allows for detecting the critical elements in the model. In the next chapter, participants will learn about discontinuities and event handling and how they affect the simulation performance. Another topic covered by this training is choosing the right solver. Together with theoretical and practical applications, best practices are shared. This is followed by a deeper insight in necessary model changes for real time capable models, which is necessary for X-in the Loop applications.

In each of those chapters, the knowledge is introduced with some theoretical background and then practically applied with demonstration models or  hands-on exercises.
