Generating Documents from Specifications and Results Data

You can export experiment data (specifications and results) from a simulation to a .xml file along with .csv and log (.txt) files.

The XML file contains:

  • Information about the simulation object: name, discipline, version, maturity, owner, project, description
  • Information about the model: name, discipline, version, maturity, owner, project, description
  • Experiment specifications:
    • Scenarios; name and time range of experiment
    • Probes and excitations specifications
  • Experiment results:
    • Link to an external file with numerical results, in csv format
    • Link to an external file containing logs.

Before you begin: You must request output from your simulation, and you must have run the simulation and generated results.

  1. Select Tools > Experiment Results > Export Scenarios and Results Data.

  2. From the XML Export Simulation dialog box that appears, select the convenient folder to store your exported files.



  3. Click OK.

    The experiment data are exported to:

    • an XML file: contains information about the simulation and the model
    • a CSV file: contains numerical results
    • a .txt file: contains the simulation log

    The name of the exported files is the name or the simulation object.
