At runtime, we would want Dakota to replace “10.0” with whatever value it is currently using. You can see “length = 10.0” in the input file.

For instance, suppose you want to define a “length” parameter for this model. The Parameters page is used for defining your simulation model’s parameters according to text replacements in the input file template. When you are ready to proceed, click Next. If you are using the provided cantilever example files, this is what the wizard should look like once populated:

Console Syntax for This Model – The exact command-line text that should be executed in order to launch your simulation model.

You may specify that a generated file should be expected after the simulation has finished running, or that console output should be expected instead of a file. This will be needed by the Responses page of the wizard to know how to parse your output and extract quantities of interest from the text.

Output – Provide one (or more) template output files for your simulation model.

This will be needed by the Parameters page of the wizard to identify which portions of text will be replaced by Dakota in your template input file at runtime.

Input – Provide one (or more) template input files for your simulation model.

Simulation Model Executable – Provide the path to your external simulation model that Dakota will run.

Simulation Model Name – Provide a custom name for your simulation model to identify it later.

The controls on this wizard page are as follows: The general idea behind this wizard is to tell the Dakota GUI how to communicate with your simulation model executable.

This will cause the Simulation Model Wizard to appear. To get started, click on the New Simulation Model link underneath the Simulation Models table: After creating a blank Dakota project, generally the first step is to define the simulation model that Dakota will be studying.
