Note to myself:
Press right-click on fields on output window and "refresh" button after setting up everything.

Thanks @montanaro!

Hello Aiping,

Bellow is a small example which might help you.

import s4l_v1 as s4l import XCoreModeling import random radius = 0.1 points = list() for ii in range(20): points.append(s4l.Vec3(random.randrange(0,20), random.randrange(0,20), random.randrange(0,20))) spline = XCoreModeling.CreateSpline(points) wire = XCoreModeling.ThickenWire(spline, radius)

Easiest way is to right click on your simulation and click on 'To Python..'

Run this to make sure it works. It should create a new simulation with the exact same parameters. You can then change whichever parameter you like and run it again

Note: If I remember correctly, if you use 'To Python', a lot of the default settings won't show up in the code. if they don't show up (like the boundary condition),change them to some non-default value in your simulation before using 'To Python'.

@sylvain Thank you for the advice Sylvain! I have tried doing as you suggested and using the StartNotebook.bat does start a Jupyter Server. Unfortunately, if I start a new Notebook and try to import a Sim4Life module, I again get a pop-up called FlexNet License Finder wanting the location of either the license or the license server.

Just to be sure I have tried doing so on different computers to try and rule out a faulty installation, however the issue persists.
I can confirm that there are no problems with using Sim4Life’s GUI or using the integrated scripter/console. I did take a closer look at the Sim4Life console though and noticed that upon start up the following message is displayed:

So perhaps this is a license issue after all?

this is extremely useful! thanks a lot.

Hi Haza,

yes, i managed to get the corresponding material with :
tissue_X_entity.MaterialName
Each entity of the anatomical model has this attribute which is visible also through the GUI.
thanks

Hi Matthew, thanks for the additional information. If I understand correctly, there are mainly 3 steps at play here, each of which repeated a certain number of times:

Posing the anatomical model to the desired posture Moving the model to the desired position inside the coil Running the simulation

What I would do for a workflow like this is:

a) Pose the model to the desired posture [in the GUI]
b) "Clone As Static" the desired posture [in the GUI]
c) Export the posed model to a .sab file [using a script in the GUI, but clicking buttons could also do] a) Starting from scratch, load the coil and load the posed model [using a script]
b) Move the model to the desired position [using a script]
c) Setup the simulation [using a script] Run the simulation [using a script]
(4). Postprocess the simulation [using a script]

So to answer your initial question: I still don't know how to Clone As Static from a script, but since I also don't know how to use the POSER from a script I would anyway still have to use the GUI to create each posture (and then the "Clone as static" is only one click away...).
Let me know if I misunderstood your workflow, or if you find a better way to achieve it than what I suggested.

thank you! It works 🙂
I finally had to separate the two hemispheres because I wanted to impose a boundary condition on one sphere and a different boundary condition on the other, but if they were too close it didn't work.

When starting and initializing Sim4Life, I do also get the error mentioned before in another thread "Error: too many positional options have been specified on the command line"

Thanks for the answer, it works!
I hadn't seen the feature Stretch.

yes you can.
Use the function CreatePolyLine from the module XCoreModeling
This function takes a list of points as input. Points need to be Vec3 objects

smth like:
import XCoreModeling
from s4l_v1.model import Vec3
#points is your array of 100 points with spatial coordinates
points = [Vec3(p) for p in points]
XCoreModeling.CreatePolyline(points)
