Variables

Overview

The following variables, when used within the statements of the DRIVER-command, are replaced automatically with strings which correspond to the specific run of SIMULIA Tosca Structure.

Variable	Example
`__WORKDIR__`	E:\scratch\WORK\tosca_job_files\holeplate_dam_stlx
`__JOBNAME__`	holeplate_dam_stlx
`__FE_MODEL_PATH__`	E:\scratch\WORK\tosca_job_files\holeplate_dam.inp
`__FE_MODEL_FILE__`	holeplate_dam.inp
`__FE_MODEL__`	holeplate_dam
`__FE_MODEL_PATH_LIST__`	['E:\\scratch\\WORK\\tosca_job_files\\holeplate_dam.inp']
`__FE_MODEL_FILE_LIST__`	['holeplate_dam.inp']
`__FE_MODEL_LIST__`	['holeplate_dam']
`__LIFE_MODEL_PATH__`	E:\scratch\WORK\tosca_job_files\Job-1.stlx
`__LIFE_MODEL_FILE__`	Job-1.stlx
`__LIFE_MODEL__`	Job-1
`__LIFE_MODEL_PATH_LIST__`	['E:\\scratch\\WORK\\tosca_job_files\\Job-1.stlx', 'E:\\scratch\\WORK\\tosca_job_files\\Job-2.stlx']
`__LIFE_MODEL_FILE_LIST__`	['Job-1.stlx', 'Job-2.stlx']
`__LIFE_MODEL_LIST__`	['Job-1', 'Job-2']

Using Variables

Use the Variables in the DRIVER section or configuration file without any special symbols. For example:

_work_dir = os.path.join( r'__WORKDIR__', 'SAVE.fesafe' )
_batch    = os.path.join( r'__WORKDIR__', r'__LIFE_MODEL_FILE__' )
_output   = os.path.join( r'__WORKDIR__', r'__LIFE_MODEL__.onf' )
solver.StandardCallArgs = [ '-project', _work_dir, 'b=%s'%_batch, 'j=refresh', 'mode=surface', 'o=%s'%_output, 'OUTPUT_NODES=1', 'LOGLIVES=0' ]

Note: When you have more than one file (fe-solver or life solver) corresponding files change for every call.

For example in this case __LIFE_MODEL__ is "Job-1" for the first call and "Job-2" for the second.
