Prerequisite Manager dialog box
| Master Solution | |
|---|---|
| Master Solution | Displays the name of the active solution. The solution becomes a master solution when you assign a prerequisite solution to it. |
| Prerequisite Solutions | |
| Lists all solutions in the Simulation file except for the master solution and solutions that are listed in the Predefined Prerequisite Solutions group. | |
| Select | Lets you select the check box to specify that the software must solve the selected solution before the master solution. Note: Do not select imported solutions as prerequisite solutions. The software skips imported solutions if you select them as prerequisites.You cannot select a check box with a dashed border because the corresponding solution creates a circular dependency with the master solution. For example, suppose you select Solutions 2, 3, and 4 as prerequisites for Solution 1. You then cannot use Solution 1 as prerequisite solution for Solutions 2, 3, or 4 because Solution 1 already depends on the results from those solutions. Similarly, if you use Samcef chaining and chain a solution to the Samcef solution, that solution could cause a circular dependency. |
| Name | The name of the solution as it appears in the Simulation Navigator. Red text indicates a solution that will create a circular dependency with the master solution. |
| Type | The solution type specified in the Solution dialog box when the solution was created. |
| Predefined Prerequisite Solutions | |
| Name | The name of the solution selected on the Chaining page of the Samcef solution type. For more information, see Chaining solutions (Simcenter Samcef). |
| Show Full Solution Chain | |
| Show Full Solution Chain | Opens the Information window with a list of the prerequisite solutions and their associated subcases in the solve sequence. The full solution chain is also listed in the Solve dialog box when you solve the solution. |
