Starting Tosca Structure.report in Tosca Structure.gui

Start Tosca Structure.report with the button Generate Report as shown in the following figure.
Once the generation of post-processing files is finished, press View Report to open eventually generated VTFX files in Tosca Structure.view.
In the field Jobname, select the parameter file of the optimization job for which the post-processing report is to be generated.
The Directory of the job is shown for control reasons and is filled in automatically. The Output Name is set automatically to <jobname>_report, but can be changed by the user.
Group selection allows to write the whole report restricted to one group chosen in the Select Group drop down dialog. With this option, you can reduce the file size significantly and also focus the attention directly to special preselected regions of interest.
The field Original Model defines if the start model including groups is added to the report. Additional parameters can be used to add command line parametersmanually and are mostly used for debug reasons.

When selecting your parameter file, all optimization results available for this job appear in the result selection table. Per default, all results will be added to the report and can be visualized as 3D animation sequences. To decrease the report file size, several results can be excluded from the report generation.


Tosca Structure.report: Result Names
Result Name	File	Generated visualization sequence
Controller Input	TP	Controller Input from topology optimization shown as fringe plot on corresponding case
Material Distribution (normalized)	TP	Relative material distribution from topology optimization shown as fringe plot on corresponding case
Optimization Displacements	SHAPE	Shape optimization displacements (that is, deformed model) shown on all cases with scalar results as fringe plots
Controller Input	SHAPE	Controller input values from shape optimization shown as fringe plot on corresponding case
Opt. Displacement Values	SHAPE	Optimization displacement values from shape optimization shown as fringe plot on corresponding case
Optimization Displacements	BEAD	Bead optimization displacements (that is, deformed model) shown on all cases with scalar results as fringe plots
Controller Input	BEAD	Controller input values from bead optimization shown as fringe plot on corresponding case
Opt. Displacement Values	BEAD	Optimization displacement values from bead optimization shown as fringe plot on corresponding case

Specific settings are available for some of the results to control coloring and filtering.


Tosca Structure.report: Result Selection Parameters
ITER	ALL \| LAST \|<nr>	Iteration(s) added to report, a specific number can also be entered
FILTER MIN (MAX)	<value>	Minimum and maximum value for filtering. Applies only for result = Material Distribution (normalized). No or both values must be set.
FRINGE MIN (MAX)	<value>	Minimum and maximum value for fringe visualization. Applies for shape and bead controller input results. No or both values must be set.
ADD UNDEFORMED MODEL		Adds undeformed model (in blue) to all displacement views in the vtfx file.
