Terminology

Export setup terminology

In Simcenter Amesim we talk about submodel parameters, global parameters and submodel variables. For the Export module we talk about input and output parameters.

Input Parameters Input Parameter are values associated with a name that are directly or indirectly needed by the simulation to run. Every submodel parameter visible in Parameter mode and every global parameter of a model can be used as an Export Input Parameter.

Output parameters are values associated with a name that are produced by the simulation or that are computed from other output parameters. Every submodel variable could be used as an Export Output Parameter. Such outputs are called Simple Output Parameters Simple Output Parameters .

Compound Output Parameters Compound Output Parameters terminology are post-treated outputs: they are computed from user defined expressions which involve any Export Input Parameters, Simple Output Parameters or other Compound Output Parameters. Certain functions may also be used.
