Oscillator optimization using EA flow

This example demonstrates how to create and run a direct optimization.

It uses the oscillator_optimization_ea.py file to create and run a direct optimization for an oscillator with the EA (Evolutionary Algorithm) optimizer. It then explains how you can optionally save the project to a desired location.

Perform required imports

Perform the required imports.

from ansys.optislang.core import Optislang
import ansys.optislang.core.examples as examples

Create optiSLang instance

Create the optiSLang instance.

osl = Optislang(ini_timeout=60)
print(osl)

Get paths of example scripts and run them

Get the paths of the example scripts and then run these scripts.

paths = examples.get_files("oscillator_optimization_ea")
osl.application.project.run_python_file(paths[0])

Run workflow

Run the workflow created by the preceding scripts.

osl.application.project.start()

Optionally save project

If you want to save the project to some desired location, uncomment and edit these lines:

path = r'<insert-desired-location>'
osl.application.save_as(os.path.join(path, "test_project.opf"))

Stop and cancel project

Stop and cancel the project.

osl.dispose()
