Sensors
The results of a time simulation are given in Sensors. Each sensor has different Fields, like displacements, excitation or response loads, environmental conditions, etc. In the Simulation window, you can place different types of sensors anywhere on the structure and visualize their output in the visualization pane (see Visualize the data)or Export the data for post-processing. All the sensors available in Ashes are listed in the Sensor list.
The sensors placed on a model in the
Simulation window
will define the output during a batch (see
Batch manager).
