Simulation Run

With a completed simulation spec and a computed mesh, we are ready to launch the solution computation. This task is known as a simualtion run in the Simscale platform.

The SimulationRun object alongside the SimulationRunsApi are used to launch the task and check its progress, just like a geometry import or mesh computation operations:

import simscale_sdk as sim

simulation_run_api = sim.SimulationRunsApi(api_client)

simulation_run = simulation_run_api.create_simulation_run(
    project_id,
    simulation.simulation_id,
    sim.SimulationRun(
        name="Run 1"
    ),
)

simulation_run_api.start_simulation_run(
    project_id,
    simulation.simulation_id,
    simulation_run.run_id,
)

while simulation_run.status not in ("FINISHED", "CANCELED", "FAILED"):

    simualtion_run = simulation_run_api.get_simulation_run(
        project_id,
        simulation.simulation_id,
        simulation_run.run_id,
    )

    time.sleep(30)

print(f"Simulation run with id={simulation_run.run_id} finished with status {simulation_run.status}")

After this point, if the simualtion was successful, we can proceed to the postprocessing of the results.
