scenario module

The base class for the scenarios.

class gemseo.core.scenario.Scenario(disciplines, formulation, objective_name, design_space, name=None, grammar_type=GrammarType.JSON, maximize_objective=False, **formulation_options)[source]

Bases: MDODiscipline

Base class for the scenarios.

The instantiation of a Scenario creates an OptimizationProblem, by linking MDODiscipline objects with an MDOFormulation and defining both the objective to minimize or maximize and the DesignSpace on which to solve the problem. Constraints can also be added to the OptimizationProblem with the Scenario.add_constraint() method, as well as observables with the Scenario.add_observable() method.

Then, the Scenario.execute() method takes a driver (see DriverLibrary) with options as input data and uses it to solve the optimization problem. This driver is in charge of executing the multidisciplinary process.

To view the results, use the Scenario.post_process() method after execution with one of the available post-processors that can be listed by Scenario.posts.

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

set_optimal_fd_step(outputs=None, inputs=None, compute_all_jacobians=False, print_errors=False, numerical_error=2.220446049250313e-16)

Compute the optimal finite-difference step.

Compute the optimal step for a forward first order finite differences gradient approximation. Requires a first evaluation of the perturbed functions values. The optimal step is reached when the truncation error (cut in the Taylor development), and the numerical cancellation errors (round-off when doing f(x+step)-f(x)) are approximately equal.

Warning

This calls the discipline execution twice per input variables.
