com1DFA.deriveParameterSet.setPercentVariation

setPercentVariation(cfg, variationFactor, thNameId)[source]

determine thickness value if set from percentVariation and set from shp file and update percentVariation value that is used for exactely this sim

this is required for reproducing this sim when using its configuration file - so that in the percentVariation parameter it is only one value e.g. +50$1 so +50% in 1 step

Parameters

  • cfg (configparser object) – comModule configuration file with info on thickness settings

  • variationFactor (float) – value of percent variation in terms of required multiplication of reference value (e.g. variationFactor= 0.5 - a variation of 50% performed by multiplication of reference value times variationFactor)

  • thNameId (str) – name of thickness feature (e.g. relTh0 if release thickness and feature with id 0)

Returns

variationIni – percentVariation parameter value for this sim to be added in cfg file

Return type

str
