OOF2: The Manual
Name
ScheduledOutput — Output operations for time evolution.
Subclasses
Subclasses are listed as they appear in the GUI and (in parentheses) as they appear in scripts.
-
Update Graphics (
GraphicsUpdate) — Update all graphics windows -
Bulk Analysis (
BulkAnalysis) — Compute Fields, Fluxes, etc. on the Mesh. -
Boundary Analysis (
BoundaryAnalysis) — Compute averages and integrals on boundaries. -
Mesh File (
MeshFileOutput) — Save a complete Mesh data file containing field data at each output time. -
Time Step Statistics (
StepStatistics) — Print time stepping statistics. For meaningful results, schedule this with Conditional/Every Time. -
Named Analysis (
NamedAnalysisOutput) — Use a predefined bulk or boundary Analysis method.
Description
The ScheduledOutput class contains output
operations that can be performed on a Mesh during a time evolution
computation. The operations come in four flavors:
-
Analyses. These include anything that can be computed on the Analysis or Boundary Analysis pages. A new analysis operation can be created using the
BulkAnalysisorBoundaryAnalysisclasses, or an existing named analysis can be re-used by using theNamedAnalysisOutputclass. Named Analyses can be created by using the Named Analyses pane on the Analysis or Boundary Analysis pages, or the OOF.Named_Analysis.Create or OOF.Mesh.Boundary_Analysis.Create commands. -
Graphics Window Updates. During a time evolution, the Graphics Window is only updated when
GraphicsUpdateis scheduled. -
Saving the Mesh. The
MeshFileOutputoperation saves the current state of theMeshin a file. -
Time Step Statistics. The time stepping methods print statistics on their step sizes at the end of a calculation. The same information can be saved in a file by adding
StepStatisticsto the Scheduled Outputs.
ScheduledOutput
objects are created and manipulated on the Scheduled Output page
in the gui and by the OOF.Mesh.Scheduled_Output menu in scripts.
