Calling Sequence

BuildPlot(MSimMultibodyModel)

Parameters

MSimMultibodyModel - Maple module of a system created using the BuildEQs command or retrieved from a MapleSim/Multibody store file (`.lib`) using the GetModel command.  

Description

Important: The BuildPlot command has been deprecated. Use the templates in the MapleSim templates folder to analyze your model instead. For more information, see Opening MapleSim Templates.

The BuildPlot command opens a window that allows you to view and work with simulations stored in the selected MSimMultibodyModel.  Plots of the model state variables (or any expression containing these variables) and any expressions and functions available through the BuildExpression command can be created.

Interface

The BuildPlot command opens the following window. The available actions, indicated by the buttons at the bottom of the window, are described below.

Preview Plot

Displays a preview of the requested plot in the Plot Result section of the window.

 

Export Result to .cvs

Exports the data displayed in the Plot Result section of the window to a comma-separated value (.cvs) file.

 

Build Plot

Generates and displays the requested plot in a new window.  This window, shown below, allows you to configure how the plot is displayed and provides several export options.

 

Preview Code

Opens a new window displaying the code that is executed when you click Build Plot. You can copy and paste this code into a Maple worksheet. Note:  MapleSim/Multibody ignores any changes made to the code displayed in this window.

Examples

Important: The BuildPlot command has been deprecated. Use the templates in the MapleSim document folder to analyze your model instead.

The example below shows an embedded MapleSim model of a planar slider-crank mechanism.  In this example, the name of the embedded component is Simulation0, and the model name is SliderCrank.  When a simulation is created, the results can be plotted using the BuildPlot command.
