Optimus Interfaces

HDF file parser

The direct interface for HDF file parser supports an unlimited variety of datatypes, and is designed for flexible and efficient I/O and for high volume and complex data. HDF is supported by many commercial and non-commercial software platforms (e.g. MATLAB, Nastran). The current version of the format is HDF5. With this interface, the analyst interacts with HDF file parser design parameters and analysis results from Optimus. It automates the creation of an engineering workflow that contains JSON model entries. A powerful embedded search engine offers dedicated filters, to simplify the selection of design parameters and result components from the HDF file parser model – allowing for an effortless parameterization.    

Orchestrating simulation campaigns

Optimus orchestrates parametric simulation campaigns involving HDF file parser, freeing users from repetitive manual model changes and data processing. Using Optimus’ Design of Experiments (DOE), Response Surface Modeling (RSM) and Numerical Optimization methods, engineering teams quickly identify product designs that meet a combination of objectives set by multiple (often competing) performance targets. At the same time, design constraints imposed by manufacturing realities or stringent regulatory and standardization requirements are consistently taken into account. 

Integration in a few clicks

Optimus automatically modifies the HDF file parser design parameters, updates the underlying models and extracts the result outputs (scalar and vectors) in an automated simulation or optimization process. Built on Optimus’ User Customizable Interface (UCI) wrapper technology, the Optimus interface for HDF file parser allows to access all advanced parameters and versions of HDF file parser without any configuration programming - enabling the parameterization and workflow integration of any HDF file parser model with just a few clicks.
