the general purpose tool for creating reports
Evaluator has a crash interface which can read results from these codes:
- PAMCRASH
- RADIOSS
- LS-DYNA
With the interface up to eight calculation results can be stored and compared. The calculator can be used to modify data.
For reading NVH results Evaluator has different interfaces:
- NASTRAN (op2 and punch-files)
- PERMAS
With these interfaces Evaluator can read:
- transfer functions
- modal participation factors
- kinetic and strain energies considering Animator3 group files
Evaluator has several interfaces such as:
- general for ascii data
- PAMCRASH
- RADIOSS
- LS-DYNA
- NASTRAN (op2 and punch-files)
- PERMAS
- RGB, PNG images
Evaluator can be run interactively or in batch mode like Animator3.
Evaluator provides different objects which can be arranged on pages:
- x-y plots (linear and logarithmic scale)
- bar charts
- polar plots
- colormaps
- images
- text
- circles
- lines
- arrows
- templates
- macros
Plot-data can be modified by:
- filters
- special occupant safety calculations (HIC, VC)
- addition
- multiplication
- integration
- derivation
There are export interfaces such as:
- Postscript
- RGB
- PNG
- general ascii
- binary data
The idea is to create a report once interactively and later (i.e. for variants) let Evaluator run in batch mode. This saves a lot of time and the results are nice looking diagrams.
Evaluator can be used interactively by picking objects or using menus. An alternative is to enter commands directly on the command line. Due to the batch ability of Evaluator every user action results in a generated command which is stored in a session file (eva.SES).
