Using Sandia's Automatic Report Generator to Document EMPIRE-based Electrostatic Simulations

Pebay, Philippe P.; Lifflander, Jonathan

The goal of this report is to illustrate the use of Sandia's Automatic Report Generator (ARG), when applied to an Electrostatic simulation case run with Sandia's EMPIRE code. It documents the results of a hackathon session that was held at the March 19-22 DOE Workshop Workflow and Hackathon that was held in Livermore, where the co-authors demonstrated ARG's flexibilty by extending it to several aspect of such simulation in less than a day's worth of work. The Explorator component of ARG automatically picks up the case's input deck, hereby determining the data components that the Generator and Assembler components are currently able to document: meta-data, input deck, mesh, and solution fields. The ARG is not yet capable of documenting the particles file created by the simulation, which will require further work.
