REPLACE PARAMETERS

Replaces one or more named parameters on an existing simulation with new values, recording both the old and new parameter states. Use this worker within a workflow to programmatically update simulation configuration (e.g. LS-DYNA keyword parameters) before re-running or branching a design study.

When to use

Tagged: deck_parameters, keyword, lsdyna, parameters, replace, simulation, update.

Inputs

Label ID Type Default Required Description
Simulation simulation_id remote_lookup Remote lookup handle that identifies the target simulation whose parameters will be replaced; select from the available simulations registered in d3VIEW.
Parameters parameters dataset Dataset table defining the parameters to replace, with columns ‘type’, ‘name’, and ‘default’ (new value); each row overrides one named parameter on the selected simulation.

Outputs

Label ID Type Description
Simulation Id simulation_id integer Integer ID of the simulation that was updated, forwarded for use by downstream workers.
Old Parameters old_parameters dataset Dataset containing the parameter values that existed on the simulation before the replacement was applied, useful for auditing or rollback.
New Parameters new_parameters dataset Dataset containing the parameter values that were written to the simulation after the replacement, confirming the applied changes.
