2.3 Typical SEAMCAT workflow

When using SEAMCAT for a compatibility analysis, a typical workflow would be as follows:

  1. Create or update a simulation workspace;

  2. Set the simulation control parameters (number of events, debug mode or not);

  3. Run a simulation;

  4. Analyse the event generation results, modify the input scenario if necessary and re-run the event generation;

  5. Perform one or more interference calculation runs;

  6. Generate a simulation report.

In addition to these basic steps further ones may be useful for different purposes:

  • Save workspace as an XML compliant file for later (repeated) work or for sharing with other users;

  • Create or update elements in the equipment library for repeatedly used equipment types;

  • Import a library;

  • Use of batch job, to serialise your work;

  • Share your workspace with others;

  • Use of an Event Processing Plugin for advanced scenario specific calculations.
