SIMAnalysis

Analyze batch simulation results

Use Batch Analysis to compare completed batch runs by input parameters, output metrics, correlations, and selected telemetry traces.

Batch Analysis helps race engineers review many generated simulation runs at once. Use it after a batch completes to find which input parameters changed output metrics such as lap time, speed, downforce, drag, tire work, fuel, or acceleration.

Before you start

  • Create and queue a Batch Simulation.
  • Wait for the batch to finish.
  • Make sure at least one generated run completed successfully.
  • Use clear parameter ranges and run names so the results table stays readable.

If every generated run fails or times out, the batch detail page shows a failure message and no result charts are available.

Open Batch Analysis

  1. Open Batch Simulations.
  2. Select a finished batch.
  3. Review the batch name and run count at the top of the detail page.
  4. Use the analysis tabs to inspect results.

The batch detail page can include Details, Parallel Coordinates, Results Overview, Cross Plots, Main Effect, Correlation, Results Table, and Analysis.

Understand dimensions and runs

Batch Analysis turns completed batch designs into dimensions and runs.

ItemWhat it contains
Input dimensionsVehicle and ambient parameter values from the generated design space.
Output dimensionsResult metrics from the fastest lap when lap data exists. If lap data is missing, summary totals can be used instead.
RunsCompleted generated runs with a run ID, optional run name, simulation ID, and numeric values.

Common output metrics include lap time, fuel remaining, fuel consumed, top speed, minimum speed, average speed, longitudinal and lateral acceleration limits, gear limits, wide-open-throttle percentage, downforce, aero balance, drag, lift-drag ratio, roll gradient, tire work, fuel consumption, max brake pressure, total time, total distance, and total fuel used.

Use Batch Analysis tabs

TabUse it forMain controls
DetailsReview or edit batch name, notes, tags, metadata, credits consumed, and simulation settings.Metadata fields and tags.
Parallel CoordinatesSee each run across selected input and output dimensions.Color, gradient colors, dimension picker, axis filters, run selection.
Results OverviewReview selected dimensions together.Dimension picker.
Cross PlotsCompare input dimensions against an output metric.Chart type, X input, optional Y input, output metric.

CorrelationReview input-to-output correlation strength.Dimension picker. Selecting a cell opens Cross Plots for that pair.
Results TableSearch, sort, select, export, and load runs for detailed telemetry analysis.Text filter, sortable columns, row selection, export, Analyze runs.
AnalysisInspect selected runs with Detailed Analysis tools.Appears after selected runs are loaded from Results Table.

Filter and focus batch results

  1. Open Parallel Coordinates.
  2. Use Dimensions to choose the inputs and outputs you want on screen.
  3. Use Color to color runs by a selected dimension.
  4. Use axis filters to narrow the run set.
  5. Select runs that need closer review.

If all dimensions are hidden, charts show No dimensions selected. Select Reset to restore dimensions.

Compare inputs and outputs

Use Cross Plots when you have one output question and one or two input parameters to compare.

TypeInputsUse it for
LineX input and output metricReview output trend across one input parameter.
HeatmapX input, Y input, and output metricReview output pattern across two input parameters.
SurfaceX input, Y input, and output metricReview a 3D surface-style relationship across two input parameters.

Use Main Effect when you want the mean output value for each input level. Use Correlation when you want a fast scan of which inputs move with which outputs.

Analyze selected runs in Detailed Analysis

  1. Open Results Table.
  2. Filter or sort the table to find the runs you want.
  3. Select one or more rows.
  4. Select Analyze runs in the action bar.
  5. Wait for simulations to load.
  6. Open the Analysis tab that appears.
  7. Select laps and use the loaded analysis layout.

The first loaded simulation becomes the primary simulation. Other loaded simulations become comparisons in Detailed Analysis.

The Analyze runs action is disabled when no rows are selected, selected rows are missing simulation data, or simulations are still loading.

Export result rows

  1. Open Results Table.
  2. Select rows when you only want selected output.
  3. Select Export rows.
  4. Choose an available export format.

When rows are selected, export uses the selected rows.
