Running the Heart Model on the Cloud

You use the Mechanical Scenario Creation app to run the Heart Model.


Before you begin: You must have the Living Heart Human Model Content (LHM) role and log into a Dassault Systèmes cloud server.
  1. In the Mechanical Scenario Creation app, open the tab containing the physics simulation.
  2. From the Simulate section of the action bar, click Living Heart Simulation Solve .
    The app creates a simulation template that includes a simulation process containing the Heart Model.
  3. From the Living Heart Simulation Solve dialog box that appears, select the template that the app uses to modify the Heart Model.
  4. Select the simulation process containing the Heart Model to run.

    When you have finished configuring the execution options, Automation Process Composer runs the selected simulation process.

  5. Optional: Click Create Process to start a simulation process from the selected template.
  6. Optional: Click Open Process to open or edit the selected simulation process in Automation Process Composer.
  7. Select the License Type.
    OptionDescription
    Credits

    Uses one-time consumable licensing credits to execute the simulation. Using credits is more efficient for peak computing workloads when you occasionally run larger, more complex simulations.

    To cover the cloud infrastructure cost, simulations always consume licensing credits when you use a cloud server.

    Credit licensing is available only when your company has purchased cloud roles and you connect to a Dassault Systèmes cloud server.

    Tokens

    Uses licensing tokens to execute the simulation. Tokens are suitable for sustained simulation workloads over the license term.

    In the token licensing scheme, your company has purchased a certain number of simulation tokens, which are available from a pool. When you run a simulation, the app checks out a particular number of tokens from the pool.

    Token licensing is available when you connect to a Dassault Systèmes cloud server or when your system administrator has configured simulation tokens on your company's on-premises Dassault Systèmes license server.

    For more information about licensing options, including an explanation of the unified licensing model and SimUnit credits and tokens, see the Simulation Licensing Guide.

  8. Specify the number of Cores that you want to use to run the simulation.

    The app analyzes the size and complexity of your simulation and allocates a number of cores based on its assessment. You can allocate a higher number of cores to run the simulation faster (while using more tokens or credits), or you can allocate fewer cores to save licensing resources.

  9. Click OK.

    Automation Process Composer executes the resulting simulation process on the cloud 3DOrchestrate station.

A monitor panel appears, from which you can follow the progress of the Heart Model simulation. You can also use the Simulation Job Monitor app on a 3DEXPERIENCE dashboard to follow the progress of the simulation. The table in Run-Time Performance provides an estimate of the run-time performance of the mechanical model.
