DynamicSimulation Object


Description

The DynamicSimulation object represents a single dynamic simulation.

Methods

Name Description
ComputeSimulation Computes the simulation starting at the current time step and ending at the specified time step.
PlaySimulation Plays the simulation between the specified time steps. The time steps being played must have already been computed.
