ModiaResult

ModiaResult is part of ModiaSim. See also the ModiaResult documentation.

ModiaResult defines an abstract interface for simulation results and provides overloaded methods for:

• Dictionaries,

• DataFrame tables,

• Tables (for example CSV), and

• ModiaResult.ResultDict (special dictionary with all features of the interface).

Additionally, operations on simulation results are provided, especially to produce line plots in a convenient way based on

• GLMakie (interactive plots in an OpenGL window),
• WGLMakie (interactive plots in a browser window),
• CairoMakie (static plots on file with publication quality),
• PyPlot (plots with Matplotlib from Python) and
• NoPlot (= all plot calls are ignored; NoPlot is a module in ModiaResult), or
• SilentNoPlot (= NoPlot without messages; SilentNoPlot is a module in ModiaResult).

Installation

All packages are registered and are installed with:

julia> ]add ModiaResult
        add ModiaPlot_GLMakie       # if plotting with GLMakie desired
        add ModiaPlot_WGLMakie      # if plotting with WGLMakie desired
        add ModiaPlot_CairoMakie    # if plotting with CairoMakie desired
        add ModiaPlot_PyPlot        # if plotting with PyPlot desired

If you have trouble installing ModiaPlot_PyPlot, see Installation of PyPlot.jl

Example

Assume that the result data structure is available, then the following commands

import ModiaResult

# Define plotting software globally
ModiaResult.activate("PyPlot") # or ENV["MODIA_PLOT"] = "PyPlot"

# Execute "using ModiaPlot_<globally defined plot package>"
ModiaResult.@usingModiaPlot   # = "using ModiaPlot_PyPlot"

# Generate line plots                     
plot(result, [("sigA", "sigB", "sigC"), "r[2:3]"])

generate the following plot:
