Analytical Diagram Control Panel

The control panel associated with BlockSim analytical diagrams and fault trees consists of multiple pages, each containing options for performing particular tasks. This topic focuses on the Analytical, Analysis Settings and Drag & Drop URDs pages of the analytical diagram control panel, which contain most of the tools you will need to build and analyze a diagram. For more information about the control panel in general, see Control Panels.

Control Panel Analytical Page

The Analytical page of the control panel for analytical diagrams and fault trees contains the following options:

Click the Update icon to update the results shown in the diagram without reanalyzing the diagram.

You can click the Spreadsheet View icon to view the results for all gates and events in a spreadsheet-style report in the Results window.

  Analyze analyzes the relationships of the components in the diagram and puts the reliability-wise configuration into a mathematical formula.

  Plot creates a plot based on the analysis results. Clicking the Plot icon before the diagram has been analyzed will automatically perform the analysis and then plot the data.

  QCP opens the analytical Quick Calculation Pad (QCP). The QCP allows you to obtain reliability results based on the algebraic solution for the currently active diagram. Clicking the QCP icon before the diagram has been analyzed will automatically perform the analysis and then open the QCP.

  Change Diagram Type changes the current diagram to the opposite diagram type (i.e., changes the current analytical diagram to a simulation diagram, or the current simulation diagram to an analytical diagram). Note the following:

Control Panel Analysis Settings Page

The Analysis Settings page of the control panel for analytical diagrams and fault trees contains the following options:

Control Panel Drag & Drop URDs Page

The Drag & Drop URDs page is available in the control panel for analytical and simulation diagrams, including fault trees. It provides a list of the URDs that are available for use by blocks in the diagram. Drag a URD into the diagram to create a standard block/event that uses the URD.

The list of URDs can be filtered using the same resource filter that is available in many other locations throughout Synthesis desktop applications.
