SnRD Post-Processing Tutorial

Below are the steps to process results using the SnRD Main Tab.

  1. Once the SnRD Post tab is active, click against Model File.
    A file browser option opens. Browse and select Tutorial_IP_SNR_Model.fem from the folder that was created during the Process Parameters step.
  2. Since the Pre-output CSV file is located in the same folder, this will be picked automatically by SnRD.
  3. Click Add under Result File(s) section.
    A file browser option opens. Browse and select Tutorial_IP_SNR_Model.pch. This output file is generated once you solve the solver deck. After the result file is selected, a working window displays while reading the file data.
    Note: For Quality Feel (Static) Analysis, use the H3D file generated after solving the FEM.

    This completes the results evaluation and plotting for the selected files. The next step is to analyse the risk and root cause issues for the Tutorial model. Risk and root cause analysis steps are covered in the following sections.
  12. All of the ELines will be evaluated and respective plots and bar graph will be populated in the session. You can navigate between pages to view the results of the evaluation.
