User manual - Deterministic analyses¶

The interface allows the user to launch the following types of deterministic analysis:

Designs of experiments for model evaluations on a set of input values
Model evaluations
Screening
Optimization

1- Designs of experiments¶

The user may defined a set of input values and then evaluate output variable at these points.

1-1 Design of experiments creation¶

Create a new design of experiment through:

The Design of experiments item in the context menu of the relevant model in the study tree (item Definition and item Probabilistic model if it exists)
The Design of experiments creation box of the model diagram
The New design of experiments item in the context menu of the Designs of experiments item

In the resulting window, the user has to choose between three types of design prior to click on the Continue button:

Full factorial design

Probabilistic design

Imported design

If the model does not contain stochastic input variables the Probabilistic item is disabled.

1-1-1 Deterministic design¶

../../../_images/designOfExperimentDeterministic.png

This window enables to create a points grid by regularly discretizing a pavement with the number of points specified in each direction.

The table lists all the input variables of the physical model. The user can choose the ones which vary and the ones which are fixed. A variable is fixed when the corresponding row is unselected (default: all variables are unselected and the grid contains only one point).

Fixed input variables: The user can define the value of the variable (default: value in the physical model definition). The values are expected to be floating points or integer.
Varying input variables: The user has to define the lower and upper bound for the variable. The values of the variable will be regularly spaced between the bounds. The bounds are always points of the grid.

The number of values is defined in the sixth column. The combo boxes of the fifth column have two items Levels= (default) and Delta=.
- Levels: the user gives the number of points (default: 2).
- Delta: the user gives the space between two points (default: (upper bound - lower bound)).

1-1-2 Probabilistic design¶

Define a probabilistic model to make this option available.

../../../_images/designOfExperimentProba.png

If stochastic input variables are present in the model, the Probabilistic item can be selected in the Input Sample definition window. Then the next window allows one to specify:

the type of the design: LHS (Latin Hyper Cube), Monte Carlo, Quasi-Monte Carlo. If input variables are correlated, LHS design is not available

the size of the design of experiments

the seed of the random generator (default: 0, positive integer expected)

1-1-3 Import data¶

../../../_images/designOfExperimentImport.png

The user can also import a design of experiments, from an external file. It is then necessary to set the link between the columns of the imported design and the input variables of the physical model, by clicking on the column name (default : first column for the first input variable, second column for the second input variable, etc…).

1-1-4 Design of experiments: input sample¶

When the input sample is defined, a new element appears in the study tree, below Designs of experiments.

Remove: Remove the analysis from the study

This item is associated with a window showing the parameter list, a progress bar and Run/Stop buttons, to launch or stop the analysis.

3-3 Results¶

When the analysis is finished or stopped, a result window appears.

On the left of the result window, the Outputs section allows the user to select the result to display.

The results window gathers several tabs:

The Elementary effects tab presents for a selected output (left column): a table with the effects of each input variable and the mean of the absolute value ( $\mu*$ ), the standard deviation ( $\sigma$ ) and the mean ( $\mu$ ) of the elementary effects. These values are plotted in the graphs $(\mu*, \sigma)$ and $(\mu*, \mu)$ .

The types of effects are determined automatically according to two criteria modeled by two lines in the graph $(\mu*, \sigma)$ :
- the green vertical dotted line, called No effect boundary is defined by:
  
  $\mu_b* = \frac{max(\mu_i*) - min(\mu_i*)}{2}$ , (with $i$ in $[0, N]$ and $N$ the number of inputs).
  It separates the variables into two groups:
  - the variables which have no effect ( $\mu_i < \mu_b*$ )
  - the variables which have an effect ( $\mu_i < \mu_b*$ )
  This boundary $\mu_b*$ can be changed by the user by moving the slider below the plot.
- the blue dotted line, called ‘cv = 0.5’ is defined by: $cv = \frac{\sigma_i}{\mu_i*} = 0.5$ .
  It separates the variables into two groups:
  - the variables which have a linear effect ( $\frac{\sigma_i}{\mu_i*} <= 0.5$ )
  - the variables which have a non-linear effect or interaction ( $\frac{\sigma_i}{\mu_i*} > 0.5$ )
- On the graph $(\mu*, \mu)$ , the blue lines separate the variables into two groups:
  - the monotonic variables ( $|\mu_i| \simeq \mu_i*$ )
  - the non-monotonic variables ( $|\mu_i| < \mu_i*$ )
  The sign of $\mu_i$ gives the direction of the effect.
By default, in the table, the variables with no effect are unselected.
The user can de/select variables manually by:
- changing the state of the check button associated with the variable in the table
- de/selecting points in the graphs (select points with a right-click drag and drop rectangle, then click on de/select button of the context menu which appears).
The selection of the influential variables is saved. This result can be used in the probabilistic model definition window to transform the non-influential stochastic variables into deterministic variables.

  - Left-click (optional: + Ctrl) on lines to select them
