About Utility Subroutines
Welcome to Adams/Solver Subroutines
The utility subroutines provide all the functionality found in the dataset function expressions, and more.
You use utility subroutines to perform operations such as the following:
• Access data defined in a model.
• Access current state information.
• Interpolate through raw data using standard curve-fitting techniques.
• Evaluate standard functions.
The utility subroutines are divided into the following categories:
• Execution Control Subroutines
• Data Access Subroutines
• Unsupported Subroutines
Execution Control Subroutines
CONSUB is the only subroutine that can call execution control subroutines. In conjunction with
ANALYS, DATOUT, and MODIFY, you can use CONSUB to control an Adams simulation.
ANALYS and MODIFY contain the FORTRAN equivalents of interactive commands to initiate analysis
and to modify the Adams/Solver dataset, respectively. DATOUT produces output from the simulation(s).
These subroutines are of most value if you want to run many simulations on a single dataset or on
variations of that dataset.
Data Access Subroutines
Subroutine: Does the following:
ANALYS Performs an Adams analysis.
DATOUT Outputs all data for the current time step
into the specified output files.
MODIFY Allows execution of any Adams/Solver
commands, except CONTROL and STOP.
The data access subroutines report the current values for system variables, or return static data stored in
a model. User subroutines can use this data to define their output quantities.
The following table lists the names and definitions for the data access subroutines:
