feat: Add MLP surrogate with Turbo Mode for 100x faster optimization

Neural Acceleration (MLP Surrogate):
- Add run_nn_optimization.py with hybrid FEA/NN workflow
- MLP architecture: 4-layer (64->128->128->64) with BatchNorm/Dropout
- Three workflow modes:
  - --all: Sequential export->train->optimize->validate
  - --hybrid-loop: Iterative Train->NN->Validate->Retrain cycle
  - --turbo: Aggressive single-best validation (RECOMMENDED)
- Turbo mode: 5000 NN trials + 50 FEA validations in ~12 minutes
- Separate nn_study.db to avoid overloading dashboard

Performance Results (bracket_pareto_3obj study):
- NN prediction errors: mass 1-5%, stress 1-4%, stiffness 5-15%
- Found minimum mass designs at boundary (angle~30deg, thick~30mm)
- 100x speedup vs pure FEA exploration

Protocol Operating System:
- Add .claude/skills/ with Bootstrap, Cheatsheet, Context Loader
- Add docs/protocols/ with operations (OP_01-06) and system (SYS_10-14)
- Update SYS_14_NEURAL_ACCELERATION.md with MLP Turbo Mode docs

NX Automation:
- Add optimization_engine/hooks/ for NX CAD/CAE automation
- Add study_wizard.py for guided study creation
- Fix FEM mesh update: load idealized part before UpdateFemodel()

New Study:
- bracket_pareto_3obj: 3-objective Pareto (mass, stress, stiffness)
- 167 FEA trials + 5000 NN trials completed
- Demonstrates full hybrid workflow

# Atomizer LLM Bootstrap
**Version**: 1.0
**Purpose**: First file any LLM session reads. Provides instant orientation and task routing.
---
## Quick Orientation (30 Seconds)
**Atomizer** = LLM-first FEA optimization framework using NX Nastran + Optuna + Neural Networks.
**Your Role**: Help users set up, run, and analyze structural optimization studies through conversation.
**Core Philosophy**: "Talk, don't click." Users describe what they want; you configure and execute.
---
## Task Classification Tree
When a user request arrives, classify it:
```
User Request

| Role | How to Detect | Can Do | Cannot Do |
|------|---------------|--------|-----------|
| **user** | Default for all sessions | Run studies, monitor, analyze, configure | Create extractors, modify protocols |
| **power_user** | User states they're a developer, or session context indicates | Create extractors, add hooks | Create protocols, modify skills |
| **admin** | Explicit declaration, admin config present | Full access | - |
**Default**: Assume `user` unless explicitly told otherwise.
---
## Context Loading Rules
After classifying the task, load context in this order:
### 1. Always Loaded (via CLAUDE.md)
- This file (00_BOOTSTRAP.md)
- Python environment rules
- Code reuse protocol
### 2. Load Per Task Type
See `02_CONTEXT_LOADER.md` for complete loading rules.
**Quick Reference**:
```
CREATE_STUDY → create-study-wizard.md (PRIMARY)
→ Use: from optimization_engine.study_wizard import StudyWizard, create_study
→ modules/extractors-catalog.md (if asks about extractors)
→ modules/zernike-optimization.md (if telescope/mirror)
→ modules/neural-acceleration.md (if >50 trials)
RUN_OPTIMIZATION → OP_02_RUN_OPTIMIZATION.md
→ SYS_10_IMSO.md (if adaptive)
→ SYS_13_DASHBOARD_TRACKING.md (if monitoring)
DEBUG → OP_06_TROUBLESHOOT.md
→ Relevant SYS_* based on error type
```
---
## Execution Framework
For ANY task, follow this pattern:
```
1. ANNOUNCE → State what you're about to do
2. VALIDATE → Check prerequisites are met
3. EXECUTE → Perform the action
4. VERIFY → Confirm success
5. REPORT → Summarize what was done
6. SUGGEST → Offer logical next steps
```
See `PROTOCOL_EXECUTION.md` for detailed execution rules.
---
## Emergency Quick Paths
### "I just want to run an optimization"
1. Do you have a `.prt` and `.sim` file? → Yes: OP_01 → OP_02
2. Getting errors? → OP_06
3. Want to see progress? → OP_03
### "Something broke"
1. Read the error message
2. Load OP_06_TROUBLESHOOT.md
3. Follow diagnostic flowchart
### "What did my optimization find?"
1. Load OP_04_ANALYZE_RESULTS.md
2. Query the study database
3. Generate report

---
## Key Constraints (Always Apply)
1. **Python Environment**: Always use `conda activate atomizer`
2. **Never modify master files**: Copy NX files to study working directory first
3. **Code reuse**: Check `optimization_engine/extractors/` before writing new extraction code
4. **Validation**: Always validate config before running optimization
5. **Documentation**: Every study needs README.md and STUDY_REPORT.md
---
## Next Steps After Bootstrap
1. If you know the task type → Go to relevant OP_* or SYS_* protocol
2. If unclear → Ask user clarifying question
3. If complex task → Read `01_CHEATSHEET.md` for quick reference
4. If need detailed loading rules → Read `02_CONTEXT_LOADER.md`

├─ Yes (e.g., minimize mass AND minimize stress)
│ └─► Protocol 11 + NSGA-II sampler
└─ Pareto front needed?
└─► Protocol 11 (returns best_trials, not best_trial)
```
### Neural Network Acceleration
```
Question: Do you need >50 trials OR surrogate model?
├─ Yes
│ └─► Protocol 14 (configure surrogate_settings in config)
└─ Training data export needed?
└─► OP_05_EXPORT_TRAINING_DATA.md
```

# Run with specific trial count
python run_optimization.py --n-trials 100
# Resume interrupted optimization

```
---
## Error Quick Fixes
| Error | Likely Cause | Quick Fix |
|-------|--------------|-----------|
| "No module named optuna" | Wrong environment | `conda activate atomizer` |
| "NX session timeout" | Model too complex | Increase `timeout` in config |
| "OP2 file not found" | Solve failed | Check NX log for errors |
| "No feasible solutions" | Constraints too tight | Relax constraint thresholds |
| "NSGA-II requires >1 objective" | Wrong protocol | Use P10 for single-objective |
| "Expression not found" | Wrong parameter name | Verify expression names in NX |
| **All trials identical results** | **Missing `*_i.prt`** | **Copy idealized part to study folder!** |
**Full troubleshooting**: See `OP_06_TROUBLESHOOT.md`
---
## CRITICAL: NX FEM Mesh Update
**If all optimization trials produce identical results, the mesh is NOT updating!**
### Required Files for Mesh Updates
```
studies/{study}/1_setup/model/
├── Model.prt # Geometry
├── Model_fem1_i.prt # Idealized part ← MUST EXIST!
├── Model_fem1.fem # FEM
└── Model_sim1.sim # Simulation
```
### Why It Matters
The `*_i.prt` (idealized part) MUST be:
1. **Present** in the study folder
2. **Loaded** before `UpdateFemodel()` (already implemented in `solve_simulation.py`)
Without it, `UpdateFemodel()` runs but the mesh doesn't change!

## Signal Detection Patterns
Use these patterns to detect when to load additional modules:
### Zernike/Mirror Detection
```
Signals: "mirror", "telescope", "wavefront", "WFE", "Zernike",
"RMS", "polishing", "optical", "M1", "surface error"
Action: Load modules/zernike-optimization.md
```
### Neural Acceleration Detection
```
Signals: "neural", "surrogate", "NN", "machine learning",
"acceleration", ">50 trials", "fast", "GNN"
Action: Load modules/neural-acceleration.md
```
### Multi-Objective Detection
```
Signals: Two or more objectives with different goals,
"pareto", "tradeoff", "NSGA", "multi-objective",
"minimize X AND maximize Y"
Action: Load SYS_11_MULTI_OBJECTIVE.md
```
### High-Complexity Detection
```
Signals: >10 design variables, "complex", "many parameters",
"adaptive", "characterization", "landscape"
Action: Load SYS_10_IMSO.md
```
### NX Open / Simcenter Detection
```
Signals: "NX Open", "NXOpen", "NX API", "FemPart", "CAE.",
"Nastran", "CQUAD", "CTRIA", "MAT1", "PSHELL",
"mesh", "solver", "OP2", "BDF", "Simcenter"
Action: Load modules/nx-docs-lookup.md
Use MCP tools: siemens_docs_search, siemens_docs_fetch
```
---
## Context Stack Examples
### Example 1: Simple Bracket Optimization
```
User: "Help me optimize my bracket for minimum weight"
Load Stack:
1. core/study-creation-core.md # Core study creation logic
```
### Example 2: Telescope Mirror with Neural
```
User: "I need to optimize my M1 mirror's wavefront error with 200 trials"
Load Stack:
1. core/study-creation-core.md # Core study creation
2. modules/zernike-optimization.md # Zernike-specific patterns
3. modules/neural-acceleration.md # Neural acceleration for 200 trials
```
### Example 3: Multi-Objective Structural
```
User: "Minimize mass AND maximize stiffness for my beam"
Load Stack:
1. core/study-creation-core.md # Core study creation
2. SYS_11_MULTI_OBJECTIVE.md # Multi-objective protocol
```
### Example 4: Debug Session
```
User: "My optimization failed with NX timeout error"
Load Stack:
1. OP_06_TROUBLESHOOT.md # Troubleshooting guide
```
### Example 5: Create Custom Extractor
```
User: "I need to extract thermal gradients from my results"
Load Stack:
1. EXT_01_CREATE_EXTRACTOR.md # Extractor creation guide
2. modules/extractors-catalog.md # Reference existing patterns
```
---
## Loading Priority Order
When multiple modules could apply, load in this order:
1. **Core skill** (always first for creation tasks)
2. **Primary operation protocol** (OP_*)
3. **Required system protocols** (SYS_*)
4. **Optional modules** (modules/*)
5. **Extension protocols** (EXT_*) - only if extending
---
## Anti-Patterns (Don't Do)
1. **Don't load everything**: Only load what's needed for the task
2. **Don't load extensions for users**: Check privilege first
3. **Don't skip core skill**: For study creation, always load core first
4. **Don't mix incompatible protocols**: P10 (single-obj) vs P11 (multi-obj)
5. **Don't load deprecated docs**: Only use docs/protocols/* structure

# Protocol Execution Framework (PEF)
**Version**: 1.0
**Purpose**: Meta-protocol defining how LLM sessions execute Atomizer protocols. The "protocol for using protocols."
---
## Core Execution Pattern
For ANY task, follow this 6-step pattern:
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 1. ANNOUNCE │
│ State what you're about to do in plain language │
│ "I'll create an optimization study for your bracket..." │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 2. VALIDATE │
│ Check prerequisites are met │
│ - Required files exist? │
│ - Environment ready? │
│ - User has confirmed understanding? │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 3. EXECUTE │
│ Perform the action following protocol steps │
│ - Load required context per 02_CONTEXT_LOADER.md │
│ - Follow protocol step-by-step │
│ - Handle errors with OP_06 patterns │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 4. VERIFY │
│ Confirm success │
│ - Files created correctly? │
│ - No errors in output? │
│ - Results make sense? │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 5. REPORT │
│ Summarize what was done │
│ - List files created/modified │
│ - Show key results │
│ - Note any warnings │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 6. SUGGEST │
│ Offer logical next steps │
│ - What should user do next? │
│ - Related operations available? │
│ - Dashboard URL if relevant? │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
---
## Task Classification Rules
Before executing, classify the user's request:
### Step 1: Identify Task Category
```python
TASK_CATEGORIES = {
"CREATE": {
"keywords": ["new", "create", "set up", "optimize", "study", "build"],
"protocol": "OP_01_CREATE_STUDY",
"privilege": "user"
},
"RUN": {
"keywords": ["start", "run", "execute", "begin", "launch"],
"protocol": "OP_02_RUN_OPTIMIZATION",
"privilege": "user"
},
"MONITOR": {
"keywords": ["status", "progress", "check", "how many", "trials"],
"protocol": "OP_03_MONITOR_PROGRESS",
"privilege": "user"
},
"ANALYZE": {
"keywords": ["results", "best", "compare", "pareto", "report"],
"protocol": "OP_04_ANALYZE_RESULTS",
"privilege": "user"
},
"EXPORT": {
"keywords": ["export", "training data", "neural data"],
"protocol": "OP_05_EXPORT_TRAINING_DATA",
"privilege": "user"
},
"DEBUG": {
"keywords": ["error", "failed", "not working", "crashed", "help"],
"protocol": "OP_06_TROUBLESHOOT",
"privilege": "user"
},
"EXTEND": {
"keywords": ["add extractor", "create hook", "new protocol"],
"protocol": "EXT_*",
"privilege": "power_user+"
}
}
```
### Step 2: Check Privilege
```python
def check_privilege(task_category, user_role):
required = TASK_CATEGORIES[task_category]["privilege"]
privilege_hierarchy = ["user", "power_user", "admin"]
if privilege_hierarchy.index(user_role) >= privilege_hierarchy.index(required):
return True
else:
# Inform user they need higher privilege
return False
```
### Step 3: Load Context
Follow rules in `02_CONTEXT_LOADER.md` to load appropriate documentation.
---
## Validation Checkpoints
Before executing any protocol step, validate:
### Pre-Study Creation
- [ ] Model files exist (`.prt`, `.sim`)
- [ ] Working directory is writable
- [ ] User has described objectives clearly
- [ ] Conda environment is atomizer
### Pre-Run
- [ ] `optimization_config.json` exists and is valid
- [ ] `run_optimization.py` exists
- [ ] Model files copied to `1_setup/model/`
- [ ] No conflicting process running
### Pre-Analysis
- [ ] `study.db` exists with completed trials
- [ ] No optimization currently running
### Pre-Extension (power_user+)
- [ ] User has confirmed their role
- [ ] Extension doesn't duplicate existing functionality
- [ ] Tests can be written for new code
---
## Error Recovery Protocol
When something fails during execution:
### Step 1: Identify Failure Point
```
Which step failed?
├─ File creation? → Check permissions, disk space
├─ NX solve? → Check NX log, timeout, expressions
├─ Extraction? → Check OP2 exists, subcase correct
├─ Database? → Check SQLite file, trial count
└─ Unknown? → Capture full error, check OP_06
```
### Step 2: Attempt Recovery
```python
RECOVERY_ACTIONS = {
"file_permission": "Check directory permissions, try different location",
"nx_timeout": "Increase timeout in config, simplify model",
"nx_expression_error": "Verify expression names match NX model",
"op2_missing": "Check NX solve completed successfully",
"extractor_error": "Verify correct subcase and element types",
"database_locked": "Wait for other process to finish, or kill stale process",
}
```
### Step 3: Escalate if Needed
If recovery fails:
1. Log the error with full context
2. Inform user of the issue
3. Suggest manual intervention if appropriate
4. Offer to retry after user fixes underlying issue
---
## Protocol Combination Rules
Some protocols work together, others conflict:
### Valid Combinations
```
OP_01 + SYS_10 # Create study with IMSO
OP_01 + SYS_11 # Create multi-objective study
OP_01 + SYS_14 # Create study with neural acceleration
OP_02 + SYS_13 # Run with dashboard tracking
OP_04 + SYS_11 # Analyze multi-objective results
```
### Invalid Combinations
```
SYS_10 + SYS_11 # Single-obj IMSO with multi-obj NSGA (pick one)
TPESampler + SYS_11 # TPE is single-objective; use NSGAIISampler
EXT_* without privilege # Extensions require power_user or admin
```
### Automatic Protocol Inference
```
If objectives.length == 1:
→ Use Protocol 10 (single-objective)
→ Sampler: TPE, CMA-ES, or GP
If objectives.length > 1:
→ Use Protocol 11 (multi-objective)
→ Sampler: NSGA-II (mandatory)
If n_trials > 50 OR surrogate_settings present:
→ Add Protocol 14 (neural acceleration)
```
---
## Execution Logging
During execution, maintain awareness of:
### Session State
```python
session_state = {
"current_study": None, # Active study name
"loaded_protocols": [], # Protocols currently loaded
"completed_steps": [], # Steps completed this session
"pending_actions": [], # Actions waiting for user
"last_error": None, # Most recent error if any
}
```
### User Communication
- Always explain what you're doing
- Show progress for long operations
- Warn before destructive actions
- Confirm before expensive operations (many trials)
---
## Confirmation Requirements
Some actions require explicit user confirmation:
### Always Confirm
- [ ] Deleting files or studies
- [ ] Overwriting existing study
- [ ] Running >100 trials
- [ ] Modifying master NX files (FORBIDDEN - but confirm user understands)
- [ ] Creating extension (power_user+)
### Confirm If Uncertain
- [ ] Ambiguous objective (minimize or maximize?)
- [ ] Multiple possible extractors
- [ ] Complex multi-solution setup
### No Confirmation Needed
- [ ] Creating new study in empty directory
- [ ] Running validation checks
- [ ] Reading/analyzing results
- [ ] Checking status
---
## Output Format Standards
When reporting results:
### Study Creation Output
```
Created study: {study_name}
Files generated:
- studies/{study_name}/1_setup/optimization_config.json
- studies/{study_name}/run_optimization.py
- studies/{study_name}/README.md
- studies/{study_name}/STUDY_REPORT.md
Configuration:
- Design variables: {count}
- Objectives: {list}
- Constraints: {list}
- Protocol: {protocol}
- Trials: {n_trials}
Next steps:
1. Copy your NX files to studies/{study_name}/1_setup/model/
2. Run: conda activate atomizer && python run_optimization.py
3. Monitor: http://localhost:3000
```
### Run Status Output
```
Study: {study_name}
Status: {running|completed|failed}
Trials: {completed}/{total}
Best value: {value} ({objective_name})
Elapsed: {time}
Dashboard: http://localhost:3000
```

Message: {error_message}
Location: {file}:{line}
Diagnosis:
{explanation}
Recovery:

## MANDATORY: Model Introspection
**ALWAYS use the introspection module for comprehensive model analysis:**
```python
from optimization_engine.hooks.nx_cad.model_introspection import (
introspect_part,
introspect_simulation,
introspect_op2,
introspect_study
)
# Option 1: Introspect entire study directory (recommended)
study_info = introspect_study("studies/my_study/")
# Option 2: Introspect individual files
part_info = introspect_part("path/to/model.prt")
sim_info = introspect_simulation("path/to/model.sim")
op2_info = introspect_op2("path/to/results.op2")
```
### What Introspection Extracts
| Source | Information Extracted |
|--------|----------------------|
| `.prt` | Expressions (count, values, types), bodies, mass, material, features |
| `.sim` | Solutions, boundary conditions, loads, materials, mesh info, output requests |
| `.op2` | Available results (displacement, stress, strain, SPC forces, etc.), subcases |
### Introspection Report Generation
**MANDATORY**: Generate `MODEL_INTROSPECTION.md` for every study:
```python
# Generate and save introspection report
study_info = introspect_study(study_dir)
# Create markdown report
report = generate_introspection_report(study_info)
with open(study_dir / "MODEL_INTROSPECTION.md", "w") as f:
f.write(report)
```

### Step 2: Extract Expressions ### Step 3: Extract Expressions (via Introspection)
Use NX Python API to extract all parametric expressions: The introspection module extracts expressions automatically:
```python ```python
# This requires running a journal inside NX from optimization_engine.hooks.nx_cad.model_introspection import introspect_part
# Use the expression extractor from optimization_engine
from optimization_engine.extractors.expression_extractor import extract_all_expressions result = introspect_part("path/to/model.prt")
if result["success"]:
expressions = extract_all_expressions(prt_file) expressions = result["data"].get("expressions", [])

print(f" {expr['name']}: {expr['value']} {expr.get('unit', '')}")
``` ```
**Manual Extraction Method** (if NX API not available): ### Step 4: Classify Expressions
1. Read the .prt file header for expression metadata
2. Look for common parameter naming patterns
3. Ask user to provide expression names from NX

# Study Creation Core Skill
**Last Updated**: December 6, 2025
**Version**: 2.3 - Added Model Introspection
**Type**: Core Skill
You are helping the user create a complete Atomizer optimization study from a natural language description.
**CRITICAL**: This skill is your SINGLE SOURCE OF TRUTH. DO NOT improvise or look at other studies for patterns. Use ONLY the patterns documented here and in the loaded modules.
---
## Module Loading
This core skill is always loaded. Additional modules are loaded based on context:
| Module | Load When | Path |
|--------|-----------|------|
| **extractors-catalog** | Always (for reference) | `modules/extractors-catalog.md` |
| **zernike-optimization** | "telescope", "mirror", "optical", "wavefront" | `modules/zernike-optimization.md` |
| **neural-acceleration** | >50 trials, "neural", "surrogate", "fast" | `modules/neural-acceleration.md` |
---
## MANDATORY: Model Introspection at Study Creation
**ALWAYS run introspection when creating a study or when user asks:**
```python
from optimization_engine.hooks.nx_cad.model_introspection import (
introspect_part,
introspect_simulation,
introspect_op2,
introspect_study
)
# Introspect entire study directory (recommended)
study_info = introspect_study("studies/my_study/")
# Or introspect individual files
part_info = introspect_part("path/to/model.prt")
sim_info = introspect_simulation("path/to/model.sim")
op2_info = introspect_op2("path/to/results.op2")
```
### Introspection Extracts
| Source | Information |
|--------|-------------|
| `.prt` | Expressions (count, values, types), bodies, mass, material, features |
| `.sim` | Solutions, boundary conditions, loads, materials, mesh info, output requests |
| `.op2` | Available results (displacement, stress, strain, SPC forces, etc.), subcases |
### Generate Introspection Report
**MANDATORY**: Save `MODEL_INTROSPECTION.md` to study directory at creation:
```python
# After introspection, generate and save report
study_info = introspect_study(study_dir)
# Generate markdown report and save to studies/{study_name}/MODEL_INTROSPECTION.md
```
---
## MANDATORY DOCUMENTATION CHECKLIST
**EVERY study MUST have these files. A study is NOT complete without them:**
| File | Purpose | When Created |
|------|---------|--------------|
| `MODEL_INTROSPECTION.md` | **Model Analysis** - Expressions, solutions, available results | At study creation |
| `README.md` | **Engineering Blueprint** - Full mathematical formulation | At study creation |
| `STUDY_REPORT.md` | **Results Tracking** - Progress, best designs, recommendations | At study creation (template) |
**README.md Requirements (11 sections)**:
1. Engineering Problem (objective, physical system)
2. Mathematical Formulation (objectives, design variables, constraints with LaTeX)
3. Optimization Algorithm (config, properties, return format)
4. Simulation Pipeline (trial execution flow diagram)
5. Result Extraction Methods (extractor details, code snippets)
6. Neural Acceleration (surrogate config, expected performance)
7. Study File Structure (directory tree)
8. Results Location (output files)
9. Quick Start (commands)
10. Configuration Reference (config.json mapping)
11. References
**FAILURE MODE**: If you create a study without MODEL_INTROSPECTION.md, README.md, and STUDY_REPORT.md, the study is incomplete.
---
## PR.3 NXSolver Interface
**Module**: `optimization_engine.nx_solver`
```python
from optimization_engine.nx_solver import NXSolver
nx_solver = NXSolver(
nastran_version="2412", # NX version
timeout=600, # Max solve time (seconds)
use_journal=True, # Use journal mode (recommended)
enable_session_management=True,
study_name="my_study"
)
```
**Main Method - `run_simulation()`**:
```python
result = nx_solver.run_simulation(
sim_file=sim_file, # Path to .sim file
working_dir=model_dir, # Working directory
expression_updates=design_vars, # Dict: {'param_name': value}
solution_name=None, # None = solve ALL solutions
cleanup=True # Remove temp files after
)
# Returns:
# {
# 'success': bool,
# 'op2_file': Path,
# 'log_file': Path,
# 'elapsed_time': float,
# 'errors': list,
# 'solution_name': str
# }
```
**CRITICAL**: For multi-solution workflows (static + modal), set `solution_name=None`.
---
## PR.4 Sampler Configurations
| Sampler | Use Case | Import | Config |
|---------|----------|--------|--------|
| **NSGAIISampler** | Multi-objective (2-3 objectives) | `from optuna.samplers import NSGAIISampler` | `NSGAIISampler(population_size=20, mutation_prob=0.1, crossover_prob=0.9, seed=42)` |
| **TPESampler** | Single-objective | `from optuna.samplers import TPESampler` | `TPESampler(seed=42)` |
| **CmaEsSampler** | Single-objective, continuous | `from optuna.samplers import CmaEsSampler` | `CmaEsSampler(seed=42)` |
---
## PR.5 Study Creation Patterns
**Multi-Objective (NSGA-II)**:
```python
study = optuna.create_study(
study_name=study_name,
storage=f"sqlite:///{results_dir / 'study.db'}",
sampler=NSGAIISampler(population_size=20, seed=42),
directions=['minimize', 'maximize'], # [obj1_dir, obj2_dir]
load_if_exists=True
)
```
**Single-Objective (TPE)**:
```python
study = optuna.create_study(
study_name=study_name,
storage=f"sqlite:///{results_dir / 'study.db'}",
sampler=TPESampler(seed=42),
direction='minimize', # or 'maximize'
load_if_exists=True
)
```
---
## PR.6 Objective Function Return Formats
**Multi-Objective** (directions=['minimize', 'minimize']):
```python
def objective(trial) -> Tuple[float, float]:
# ... extraction ...
return (obj1, obj2) # Both positive, framework handles direction
```
**Multi-Objective with maximize** (directions=['maximize', 'minimize']):
```python
def objective(trial) -> Tuple[float, float]:
# ... extraction ...
return (-stiffness, mass) # -stiffness so minimize → maximize
```
**Single-Objective**:
```python
def objective(trial) -> float:
# ... extraction ...
return objective_value
```
---
## PR.7 Hook System
**Available Hook Points** (from `optimization_engine.plugins.hooks`):
| Hook Point | When | Context Keys |
|------------|------|--------------|
| `PRE_MESH` | Before meshing | `trial_number, design_variables, sim_file` |
| `POST_MESH` | After mesh | `trial_number, design_variables, sim_file` |
| `PRE_SOLVE` | Before solve | `trial_number, design_variables, sim_file, working_dir` |
| `POST_SOLVE` | After solve | `trial_number, design_variables, op2_file, working_dir` |
| `POST_EXTRACTION` | After extraction | `trial_number, design_variables, results, working_dir` |
| `POST_CALCULATION` | After calculations | `trial_number, objectives, constraints, feasible` |
| `CUSTOM_OBJECTIVE` | Custom objectives | `trial_number, design_variables, extracted_results` |
See [EXT_02_CREATE_HOOK](../../docs/protocols/extensions/EXT_02_CREATE_HOOK.md) for creating custom hooks.
---
## PR.8 Structured Logging (MANDATORY)
**Always use structured logging**:
```python
from optimization_engine.logger import get_logger
logger = get_logger(study_name, study_dir=results_dir)
# Study lifecycle
logger.study_start(study_name, n_trials, "NSGAIISampler")
logger.study_complete(study_name, total_trials, successful_trials)
# Trial lifecycle
logger.trial_start(trial.number, design_vars)
logger.trial_complete(trial.number, objectives_dict, constraints_dict, feasible)
logger.trial_failed(trial.number, error_message)
# General logging
logger.info("message")
logger.warning("message")
logger.error("message", exc_info=True)
```
---
## Study Structure
```
studies/{study_name}/
├── 1_setup/ # INPUT: Configuration & Model
│ ├── model/ # WORKING COPY of NX Files
│ │ ├── {Model}.prt # Parametric part
│ │ ├── {Model}_sim1.sim # Simulation setup

├── run_optimization.py # Main entry point
├── reset_study.py # Database reset

└── STUDY_REPORT.md # Results report template
```
---
## CRITICAL: Model File Protection
**NEVER modify the user's original/master model files.** Always work on copies.
```python
import shutil
from pathlib import Path
def setup_working_copy(source_dir: Path, model_dir: Path, file_patterns: list):
"""Copy model files from user's source to study working directory."""
model_dir.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
for pattern in file_patterns:
for src_file in source_dir.glob(pattern):
dst_file = model_dir / src_file.name
if not dst_file.exists():
shutil.copy2(src_file, dst_file)
```
---
## Interactive Discovery Process
### Step 1: Problem Understanding
**Ask clarifying questions**:
- "What component are you optimizing?"
- "What do you want to optimize?" (minimize/maximize)
- "What limits must be satisfied?" (constraints)
- "What parameters can be changed?" (design variables)
- "Where are your NX files?"
### Step 2: Protocol Selection
| Scenario | Protocol | Sampler |
|----------|----------|---------|
| Single objective + constraints | Protocol 10 | TPE/CMA-ES |
| 2-3 objectives | Protocol 11 | NSGA-II |
| >50 trials, need speed | Protocol 14 | + Neural |
### Step 3: Extractor Mapping
Map user needs to extractors from [extractors-catalog module](../modules/extractors-catalog.md):
| Need | Extractor |
|------|-----------|
| Displacement | E1: `extract_displacement` |
| Stress | E3: `extract_solid_stress` |
| Frequency | E2: `extract_frequency` |
| Mass (FEM) | E4: `extract_mass_from_bdf` |
| Mass (CAD) | E5: `extract_mass_from_expression` |
### Step 4: Multi-Solution Detection
If user needs BOTH:
- Static results (stress, displacement)
- Modal results (frequency)
Then set `solution_name=None` to solve ALL solutions.

## Common Patterns
### Pattern 1: Mass Minimization with Constraints
```
Objective: Minimize mass
Constraints: Stress < limit, Displacement < limit
Protocol: Protocol 10 (single-objective TPE)
Extractors: E4/E5, E3, E1
Multi-Solution: No (static only)
```
### Pattern 2: Mass vs Stiffness Trade-off
```
Objectives: Minimize mass, Maximize stiffness
Constraints: Stress < limit
Protocol: Protocol 11 (multi-objective NSGA-II)
Extractors: E4/E5, E1 (for stiffness = F/δ), E3
Multi-Solution: No (static only)
```
### Pattern 3: Mass vs Frequency Trade-off
```
Objectives: Minimize mass, Maximize frequency
Constraints: Stress < limit, Displacement < limit
Protocol: Protocol 11 (multi-objective NSGA-II)
Extractors: E4/E5, E2, E3, E1
Multi-Solution: Yes (static + modal)
```
---
## Validation Integration
### Pre-Flight Check
```python
def preflight_check():
"""Validate study setup before running."""
from optimization_engine.validators import validate_study
result = validate_study(STUDY_NAME)
if not result.is_ready_to_run:
print("[X] Study validation failed!")
print(result)
sys.exit(1)
print("[OK] Pre-flight check passed!")
return True
```
### Validation Checklist
- [ ] All design variables have valid bounds (min < max)
- [ ] All objectives have proper extraction methods
- [ ] All constraints have thresholds defined
- [ ] Protocol matches objective count
- [ ] Part file (.prt) exists in model directory
- [ ] Simulation file (.sim) exists
---
## Output Format
After completing study creation, provide:
**Summary Table**:
```
Study Created: {study_name}
Protocol: {protocol}
Objectives: {list}
Constraints: {list}
Design Variables: {list}
Multi-Solution: {Yes/No}
```
**File Checklist**:
```
✓ studies/{study_name}/1_setup/optimization_config.json
✓ studies/{study_name}/1_setup/workflow_config.json
✓ studies/{study_name}/run_optimization.py
✓ studies/{study_name}/reset_study.py
✓ studies/{study_name}/MODEL_INTROSPECTION.md # MANDATORY - Model analysis
✓ studies/{study_name}/README.md
✓ studies/{study_name}/STUDY_REPORT.md
```
**Next Steps**:
```
1. Place your NX files in studies/{study_name}/1_setup/model/
2. Test with: python run_optimization.py --test
3. Monitor: http://localhost:3003
4. Full run: python run_optimization.py --run --trials {n_trials}
```
---
## Critical Reminders
1. **Multi-Objective Return Format**: Return tuple with positive values, use `directions` for semantics
2. **Multi-Solution**: Set `solution_name=None` for static + modal workflows
3. **Always use centralized extractors** from `optimization_engine/extractors/`
4. **Never modify master model files** - always work on copies
5. **Structured logging is mandatory** - use `get_logger()`
---
## Assembly FEM (AFEM) Workflow
For complex assemblies with `.afm` files, the update sequence is critical:
```
.prt (geometry) → _fem1.fem (component mesh) → .afm (assembly mesh) → .sim (solution)
```
### The 4-Step Update Process
1. **Update Expressions in Geometry (.prt)**
- Open part, update expressions, DoUpdate(), Save
2. **Update ALL Linked Geometry Parts** (CRITICAL!)
- Open each linked part, DoUpdate(), Save
- **Skipping this causes corrupt results ("billion nm" RMS)**
3. **Update Component FEMs (.fem)**
- UpdateFemodel() regenerates mesh from updated geometry
4. **Update Assembly FEM (.afm)**
- UpdateFemodel(), merge coincident nodes at interfaces
### Assembly Configuration
```json
{
"nx_settings": {
"expression_part": "M1_Blank",
"component_fems": ["M1_Blank_fem1.fem", "M1_Support_fem1.fem"],
"afm_file": "ASSY_M1_assyfem1.afm"
}
}
```
---
## Multi-Solution Solve Protocol
When simulation has multiple solutions (static + modal), use `SolveAllSolutions` API:
### Critical: Foreground Mode Required
```python
# WRONG - Returns immediately, async
theCAESimSolveManager.SolveChainOfSolutions(
psolutions1,
SolveMode.Background # Returns before complete!
)
# CORRECT - Waits for completion
theCAESimSolveManager.SolveAllSolutions(
SolveOption.Solve,
SetupCheckOption.CompleteCheckAndOutputErrors,
SolveMode.Foreground, # Blocks until complete
False
)
```
### When to Use
- `solution_name=None` passed to `NXSolver.run_simulation()`
- Multiple solutions that must all complete
- Multi-objective requiring results from different analysis types
### Solution Monitor Control
Solution monitor is automatically disabled when solving multiple solutions to prevent window pile-up:
```python
propertyTable.SetBooleanPropertyValue("solution monitor", False)
```
### Verification
After solve, verify:
- Both `.dat` files written (one per solution)
- Both `.op2` files created with updated timestamps
- Results are unique per trial (frequency values vary)

# Create Study Wizard Skill
**Version**: 3.0 - StudyWizard Integration
**Last Updated**: 2025-12-06
You are helping the user create a complete Atomizer optimization study using the powerful `StudyWizard` class.
---
## Quick Reference
```python
from optimization_engine.study_wizard import StudyWizard, create_study, list_extractors
# Option 1: One-liner for simple studies
create_study(
study_name="my_study",
description="Optimize bracket for stiffness",
prt_file="path/to/model.prt",
design_variables=[
{"parameter": "thickness", "bounds": [5, 20], "units": "mm"}
],
objectives=[
{"name": "stiffness", "goal": "maximize", "extractor": "extract_displacement"}
],
constraints=[
{"name": "mass", "type": "less_than", "threshold": 0.5, "extractor": "extract_mass_from_bdf", "units": "kg"}
]
)
# Option 2: Step-by-step with full control
wizard = StudyWizard("my_study", "Optimize bracket")
wizard.set_model_files("path/to/model.prt")
wizard.introspect() # Discover expressions, solutions
wizard.add_design_variable("thickness", bounds=(5, 20), units="mm")
wizard.add_objective("mass", goal="minimize", extractor="extract_mass_from_bdf")
wizard.add_constraint("stress", type="less_than", threshold=250, extractor="extract_solid_stress", units="MPa")
wizard.generate()
```
---
## Trigger Phrases
Use this skill when user says:
- "create study", "new study", "set up study", "create optimization"
- "optimize my [part/model/bracket/component]"
- "help me minimize [mass/weight/cost]"
- "help me maximize [stiffness/strength/frequency]"
- "I want to find the best [design/parameters]"
---
## Workflow Steps
### Step 1: Gather Requirements
Ask the user (if not already provided):
1. **Model files**: "Where is your NX model? (path to .prt file)"
2. **Optimization goal**: "What do you want to optimize?"
- Minimize mass/weight
- Maximize stiffness
- Target a specific frequency
- Multi-objective trade-off
3. **Constraints**: "What limits must be respected?"
- Max stress < yield/safety factor
- Max displacement < tolerance
- Mass budget
### Step 2: Introspect Model
```python
from optimization_engine.study_wizard import StudyWizard
wizard = StudyWizard("study_name", "Description")
wizard.set_model_files("path/to/model.prt")
result = wizard.introspect()
# Show user what was found
print(f"Found {len(result.expressions)} expressions:")
for expr in result.expressions[:10]:
print(f" {expr['name']}: {expr.get('value', 'N/A')}")
print(f"\nFound {len(result.solutions)} solutions:")
for sol in result.solutions:
print(f" {sol['name']}")
# Suggest design variables
suggestions = result.suggest_design_variables()
for s in suggestions:
print(f" {s['name']}: {s['current_value']} -> bounds {s['suggested_bounds']}")
```
### Step 3: Configure Study
```python
# Add design variables from introspection suggestions
for dv in selected_design_variables:
wizard.add_design_variable(
parameter=dv['name'],
bounds=dv['bounds'],
units=dv.get('units', ''),
description=dv.get('description', '')
)
# Add objectives
wizard.add_objective(
name="mass",
goal="minimize",
extractor="extract_mass_from_bdf",
description="Minimize total bracket mass"
)
wizard.add_objective(
name="stiffness",
goal="maximize",
extractor="extract_displacement",
params={"invert_for_stiffness": True},
description="Maximize structural stiffness"
)
# Add constraints
wizard.add_constraint(
name="max_stress",
constraint_type="less_than",
threshold=250,
extractor="extract_solid_stress",
units="MPa",
description="Keep stress below yield/4"
)
# Set protocol based on objectives
if len(wizard.objectives) > 1:
wizard.set_protocol("protocol_11_multi") # NSGA-II
else:
wizard.set_protocol("protocol_10_single") # TPE
wizard.set_trials(100)
```
### Step 4: Generate Study
```python
files = wizard.generate()
print("Study generated successfully!")
print(f"Location: {wizard.study_dir}")
print("\nNext steps:")
print(" 1. cd", wizard.study_dir)
print(" 2. python run_optimization.py --discover")
print(" 3. python run_optimization.py --validate")
print(" 4. python run_optimization.py --run --trials 100")
```

## Common Optimization Patterns
### Pattern 1: Minimize Mass with Stress Constraint
```python
create_study(
study_name="lightweight_bracket",
description="Minimize mass while keeping stress below yield",
prt_file="Bracket.prt",
design_variables=[
{"parameter": "wall_thickness", "bounds": [2, 10], "units": "mm"},
{"parameter": "rib_count", "bounds": [2, 8], "units": "count"}
],
objectives=[
{"name": "mass", "goal": "minimize", "extractor": "extract_mass_from_bdf"}
],
constraints=[
{"name": "stress", "type": "less_than", "threshold": 250,
"extractor": "extract_solid_stress", "units": "MPa"}
],
protocol="protocol_10_single"
)
```
### Pattern 2: Multi-Objective Stiffness vs Mass
```python
create_study(
study_name="pareto_bracket",
description="Trade-off between stiffness and mass",
prt_file="Bracket.prt",
design_variables=[
{"parameter": "thickness", "bounds": [5, 25], "units": "mm"},
{"parameter": "support_angle", "bounds": [20, 70], "units": "degrees"}
],
objectives=[
{"name": "stiffness", "goal": "maximize", "extractor": "extract_displacement"},
{"name": "mass", "goal": "minimize", "extractor": "extract_mass_from_bdf"}
],
constraints=[
{"name": "mass_limit", "type": "less_than", "threshold": 0.5,
"extractor": "extract_mass_from_bdf", "units": "kg"}
],
protocol="protocol_11_multi",
n_trials=150
)
```
### Pattern 3: Frequency-Targeted Modal Optimization
```python
create_study(
study_name="modal_bracket",
description="Tune first natural frequency to target",
prt_file="Bracket.prt",
design_variables=[
{"parameter": "thickness", "bounds": [3, 15], "units": "mm"},
{"parameter": "length", "bounds": [50, 150], "units": "mm"}
],
objectives=[
{"name": "frequency_error", "goal": "minimize",
"extractor": "get_first_frequency",
"params": {"target": 100}} # Target 100 Hz
],
constraints=[
{"name": "mass", "type": "less_than", "threshold": 0.3,
"extractor": "extract_mass_from_bdf", "units": "kg"}
]
)
```
### Pattern 4: Thermal Optimization
```python
create_study(
study_name="heat_sink",
description="Minimize max temperature",
prt_file="HeatSink.prt",
design_variables=[
{"parameter": "fin_height", "bounds": [10, 50], "units": "mm"},
{"parameter": "fin_count", "bounds": [5, 20], "units": "count"}
],
objectives=[
{"name": "max_temp", "goal": "minimize", "extractor": "get_max_temperature"}
],
constraints=[
{"name": "mass", "type": "less_than", "threshold": 0.2,
"extractor": "extract_mass_from_bdf", "units": "kg"}
]
)
```

## Protocol Selection Guide
| Scenario | Protocol | Sampler |
|----------|----------|---------|
| Single objective | `protocol_10_single` | TPESampler |
| Multiple objectives (Pareto) | `protocol_11_multi` | NSGAIISampler |
| Smooth design space | `protocol_10_single` | CmaEsSampler |
| Discrete variables | `protocol_10_single` | TPESampler |
---
## Files Generated
The wizard generates a complete study structure:
```
studies/{study_name}/
├── 1_setup/
│ ├── model/ # NX model files (copied)
│ ├── optimization_config.json
│ └── workflow_config.json
├── 2_results/ # Created on first run
├── run_optimization.py # Main script with staged workflow
├── reset_study.py # Reset results
├── README.md # Engineering documentation
├── STUDY_REPORT.md # Results tracking template
└── MODEL_INTROSPECTION.md # Model analysis report
```
---
## Staged Workflow
After generation, guide user through staged validation:
```bash
# Stage 1: Discover model outputs
python run_optimization.py --discover
# Stage 2: Validate with single trial
python run_optimization.py --validate
# Stage 3: Integration test (3 trials)
python run_optimization.py --test
# Stage 4: Full optimization
python run_optimization.py --run --trials 100
# Resume if interrupted
python run_optimization.py --run --trials 50 --resume
```
---
## Error Handling
### Common Issues and Solutions
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| "Part file not found" | Wrong path | Use absolute path or relative to studies/ |
| "No expressions found" | Part not parametric | Add expressions in NX Modeling |
| "Simulation failed" | NX not running | Start NX before running |
| "Extractor not found" | Typo in name | Use `list_extractors()` to see valid names |
---
## Example Conversation
**User**: "I want to optimize my bracket for minimum weight while keeping stress low"
**Claude**: "I'll help you create a weight optimization study. Let me gather some information:
1. Where is your NX model file?
2. What's the maximum allowable stress (e.g., yield/4)?
3. Are there specific parameters you want to vary (thickness, angles, etc.)?"
**User**: "The model is at studies/my_bracket/model/Bracket.prt. Max stress should be 250 MPa. I want to vary the wall_thickness and support_angle."
**Claude**: "I'll create the study and introspect your model to confirm the parameters exist."
```python
from optimization_engine.study_wizard import StudyWizard
wizard = StudyWizard(
study_name="my_bracket_optimization",
description="Minimize bracket mass with stress constraint"
)
wizard.set_model_files("studies/my_bracket/model/Bracket.prt")
# Introspect to verify parameters
result = wizard.introspect()
print(f"Found expressions: {result.get_expression_names()}")
# Configure
wizard.add_design_variable("wall_thickness", bounds=(2, 15), units="mm")
wizard.add_design_variable("support_angle", bounds=(20, 60), units="degrees")
wizard.add_objective("mass", goal="minimize", extractor="extract_mass_from_bdf")
wizard.add_constraint("stress", constraint_type="less_than", threshold=250,
extractor="extract_solid_stress", units="MPa")
wizard.set_trials(100)
files = wizard.generate()
```
**Claude**: "Study created! Here's what I generated:
- `studies/my_bracket_optimization/run_optimization.py`
- `studies/my_bracket_optimization/README.md`
- Configuration files in `1_setup/`
Next steps:
1. `cd studies/my_bracket_optimization`
2. `python run_optimization.py --discover`
3. `python run_optimization.py --validate`
4. `python run_optimization.py --run --trials 100`"

## MANDATORY: Model Introspection
**ALWAYS run introspection when user provides NX files or asks for model analysis:**
```python
from optimization_engine.hooks.nx_cad.model_introspection import (
introspect_part,
introspect_simulation,
introspect_op2,
introspect_study
)
# Introspect entire study directory (recommended)
study_info = introspect_study("studies/my_study/")
# Or introspect individual files
part_info = introspect_part("path/to/model.prt")
sim_info = introspect_simulation("path/to/model.sim")
op2_info = introspect_op2("path/to/results.op2")
```
### What Introspection Provides
| Source | Information Extracted |
|--------|----------------------|
| `.prt` | Expressions (potential design variables), bodies, mass, material, features |
| `.sim` | Solutions (SOL types), boundary conditions, loads, materials, mesh info, output requests |
| `.op2` | Available results (displacement, stress, strain, SPC forces, frequencies), subcases |
### Generate MODEL_INTROSPECTION.md
**MANDATORY**: Save introspection report at study creation:
- Location: `studies/{study_name}/MODEL_INTROSPECTION.md`
- Contains: All expressions, solutions, available results, optimization recommendations

# Guided Study Creation Wizard
**Version**: 1.0
**Purpose**: Interactive conversational wizard for creating new optimization studies from scratch.
---
## Overview
This skill provides a step-by-step guided experience for users who want to create a new optimization study. It asks focused questions to gather requirements, then generates the complete study configuration.
---
## Wizard Flow
### Phase 1: Understanding the Problem (Discovery)
Start with open-ended questions to understand what the user wants to optimize:
**Opening Prompt:**
```
I'll help you set up a new optimization study. Let's start with the basics:
1. **What are you trying to optimize?**
- Describe the physical system (e.g., "a telescope mirror", "a UAV arm", "a bracket")
2. **What's your goal?**
- Minimize weight? Maximize stiffness? Minimize stress? Multiple objectives?
3. **Do you have an NX model ready?**
- If yes, where is it located?
- If no, we can discuss what's needed
```
### Phase 2: Model Analysis (If NX model provided)
If user provides a model path:
1. **Check the model exists**
```python
# Verify path
model_path = Path(user_provided_path)
if model_path.exists():
# Proceed with analysis
else:
# Ask for correct path
```
2. **Extract expressions (design parameters)**
- List all NX expressions that could be design variables
- Ask user to confirm which ones to optimize
3. **Identify simulation setup**
- What solution types are present? (static, modal, buckling)
- What results are available?
### Phase 3: Define Objectives & Constraints
Ask focused questions:
```
Based on your model, I can see these results are available:
- Displacement (from static solution)
- Von Mises stress (from static solution)
- Natural frequency (from modal solution)
- Mass (from geometry)
**Questions:**
1. **Primary Objective** - What do you want to minimize/maximize?
Examples: "minimize tip displacement", "minimize mass"
2. **Secondary Objectives** (optional) - Any other goals?
Examples: "also minimize stress", "maximize first frequency"
3. **Constraints** - What limits must be respected?
Examples: "stress < 200 MPa", "frequency > 50 Hz", "mass < 2 kg"
```
### Phase 4: Define Design Space
For each design variable identified:
```
For parameter `{param_name}` (current value: {current_value}):
- **Minimum value**: (default: -20% of current)
- **Maximum value**: (default: +20% of current)
- **Type**: continuous or discrete?
```
### Phase 5: Optimization Settings
```
**Optimization Configuration:**
1. **Number of trials**: How thorough should the search be?
- Quick exploration: 50-100 trials
- Standard: 100-200 trials
- Thorough: 200-500 trials
- With neural acceleration: 500+ trials
2. **Protocol Selection** (I'll recommend based on your setup):
- Single objective → Protocol 10 (IMSO)
- Multi-objective (2-3 goals) → Protocol 11 (NSGA-II)
- Large-scale with NN → Protocol 12 (Hybrid)
3. **Neural Network Acceleration**:
- Enable if n_trials > 100 and you want faster iterations
```
### Phase 6: Summary & Confirmation
Present the complete configuration for user approval:
```
## Study Configuration Summary
**Study Name**: {study_name}
**Location**: studies/{study_name}/
**Model**: {model_path}
**Design Variables** ({n_vars} parameters):
| Parameter | Min | Max | Type |
|-----------|-----|-----|------|
| {name1} | {min1} | {max1} | continuous |
| ... | ... | ... | ... |
**Objectives**:
- {objective1}: {direction1}
- {objective2}: {direction2} (if multi-objective)
**Constraints**:
- {constraint1}
- {constraint2}
**Settings**:
- Protocol: {protocol}
- Trials: {n_trials}
- Sampler: {sampler}
- Neural Acceleration: {enabled/disabled}
---
Does this look correct?
- Type "yes" to generate the study files
- Type "change X" to modify a specific setting
- Type "start over" to begin again
```
### Phase 7: Generation
Once confirmed, generate:
1. Create study directory structure
2. Copy model files to working directory
3. Generate `optimization_config.json`
4. Generate `run_optimization.py`
5. Validate everything works
```
✓ Study created successfully!
**Next Steps:**
1. Review the generated files in studies/{study_name}/
2. Run a quick validation: `python run_optimization.py --validate`
3. Start optimization: `python run_optimization.py --start`
Or just tell me "start the optimization" and I'll handle it!
```
---
## Question Templates
### For Understanding Goals
- "What problem are you trying to solve?"
- "What makes a 'good' design for your application?"
- "Are there any hard limits that must not be exceeded?"
- "Is this a weight reduction study, a performance study, or both?"
### For Design Variables
- "Which dimensions or parameters should I vary?"
- "Are there any parameters that must stay fixed?"
- "What are reasonable bounds for {parameter}?"
- "Should {parameter} be continuous or discrete (specific values only)?"
### For Constraints
- "What's the maximum stress this component can handle?"
- "Is there a minimum stiffness requirement?"
- "Are there weight limits?"
- "What frequency should the structure avoid (resonance concerns)?"
### For Optimization Settings
- "How much time can you allocate to this study?"
- "Do you need a quick exploration or thorough optimization?"
- "Is this a preliminary study or final optimization?"
---
## Default Configurations by Use Case
### Structural Weight Minimization
```json
{
"objectives": [
{"name": "mass", "direction": "minimize", "target": null}
],
"constraints": [
{"name": "max_stress", "type": "<=", "value": 200e6, "unit": "Pa"},
{"name": "max_displacement", "type": "<=", "value": 0.001, "unit": "m"}
],
"n_trials": 150,
"sampler": "TPE"
}
```
### Multi-Objective (Weight vs Performance)
```json
{
"objectives": [
{"name": "mass", "direction": "minimize"},
{"name": "max_displacement", "direction": "minimize"}
],
"n_trials": 200,
"sampler": "NSGA-II"
}
```
### Modal Optimization (Frequency Tuning)
```json
{
"objectives": [
{"name": "first_frequency", "direction": "maximize"}
],
"constraints": [
{"name": "mass", "type": "<=", "value": 5.0, "unit": "kg"}
],
"n_trials": 150,
"sampler": "TPE"
}
```
### Telescope Mirror (Zernike WFE)
```json
{
"objectives": [
{"name": "filtered_rms", "direction": "minimize", "unit": "nm"}
],
"constraints": [
{"name": "mass", "type": "<=", "value": null}
],
"extractor": "ZernikeExtractor",
"n_trials": 200,
"sampler": "NSGA-II"
}
```
---
## Error Handling
### Model Not Found
```
I couldn't find a model at that path. Let's verify:
- Current directory: {cwd}
- You specified: {user_path}
Could you check the path and try again?
Tip: Use an absolute path like "C:/Users/.../model.prt"
```
### No Expressions Found
```
I couldn't find any parametric expressions in this model.
For optimization, we need parameters defined as NX expressions.
Would you like me to explain how to add expressions to your model?
```
### Invalid Constraint
```
That constraint doesn't match any available results.
Available results from your model:
- {result1}
- {result2}
Which of these would you like to constrain?
```
---
## Integration with Dashboard
When running from the Atomizer dashboard with a connected Claude terminal:
1. **No study selected** → Offer to create a new study
2. **Study selected** → Use that study's context, offer to modify or run
The dashboard will display the study once created, showing real-time progress.
---
## Quick Commands
For users who know what they want:
- `create study {name} from {model_path}` - Skip to model analysis
- `quick setup` - Use all defaults, just confirm
- `copy study {existing} as {new}` - Clone an existing study as starting point
---
## Remember
- **Be conversational** - This is a wizard, not a form
- **Offer sensible defaults** - Don't make users specify everything
- **Validate as you go** - Catch issues early
- **Explain decisions** - Say why you recommend certain settings
- **Keep it focused** - One question at a time, don't overwhelm

| Temperature/Custom | E6 | Thermal or custom field results |
| k = F/δ | E7 | Stiffness maximization |
| Wavefront error | E8-E10 | Telescope/mirror optimization |
| Part mass + material | E11 | Direct from .prt file with material info |

## Engineering Result Types
| Result Type | Nastran SOL | Output File | Extractor |
|-------------|-------------|-------------|-----------|
| Static Stress | SOL 101 | `.op2` | E3: `extract_solid_stress` |
| Displacement | SOL 101 | `.op2` | E1: `extract_displacement` |
| Natural Frequency | SOL 103 | `.op2` | E2: `extract_frequency` |
| Buckling Load | SOL 105 | `.op2` | `extract_buckling` |
| Modal Shapes | SOL 103 | `.op2` | `extract_mode_shapes` |
| Mass | - | `.dat`/`.bdf` | E4: `bdf_mass_extractor` |
| Stiffness | SOL 101 | `.fld` + `.op2` | E7: `stiffness_calculator` |
---
## Common Objective Formulations
### Stiffness Maximization
- k = F/δ (force/displacement)
- Maximize k or minimize 1/k (compliance)
- Requires consistent load magnitude across trials
### Mass Minimization
- Extract from BDF element properties + material density
- Units: typically kg (NX uses kg-mm-s)
### Stress Constraints
- Von Mises < σ_yield / safety_factor
- Account for stress concentrations
### Frequency Constraints
- f₁ > threshold (avoid resonance)
- Often paired with mass minimization

## Adding New Extractors
When the study needs result extraction not covered by existing extractors (E1-E10):
```
STEP 1: Check existing extractors in this catalog
├── If exists → IMPORT and USE it (done!)
└── If missing → Continue to STEP 2
STEP 2: Create extractor in optimization_engine/extractors/
├── File: extract_{feature}.py
├── Follow existing extractor patterns
└── Include comprehensive docstrings
STEP 3: Add to __init__.py
└── Export functions in optimization_engine/extractors/__init__.py
STEP 4: Update this module
├── Add to Extractor Catalog table
└── Add code snippet
STEP 5: Document in SYS_12_EXTRACTOR_LIBRARY.md
```
See [EXT_01_CREATE_EXTRACTOR](../../docs/protocols/extensions/EXT_01_CREATE_EXTRACTOR.md) for full guide.

export_dir=export_dir,
study_name=study_name,
design_variable_names=['param1', 'param2'],
objective_names=['stiffness', 'mass'],
constraint_names=['mass_limit'],
metadata={'atomizer_version': '2.0', 'optimization_algorithm': 'NSGA-II'}
)
# In objective function:
training_exporter.export_trial(
trial_number=trial.number,
design_variables=design_vars,
results={'objectives': {...}, 'constraints': {...}},
simulation_files={'dat_file': dat_path, 'op2_file': op2_path}
)
# After optimization:
training_exporter.finalize()
```
### Training Data Structure
```
atomizer_field_training_data/{study_name}/
├── trial_0001/
│ ├── input/model.bdf # Nastran input (mesh + params)

Output (objectives):
├── mass (grams)
├── frequency (Hz)
├── max_displacement (mm)
└── max_stress (MPa)
```

**Use When**: You need field visualization or complex derived quantities.
### Ensemble Models
Multiple models for uncertainty quantification.
```python
# Run N models
predictions = [model_i(x) for model_i in ensemble]
# Statistics
mean_prediction = np.mean(predictions)
uncertainty = np.std(predictions)
# Decision
if uncertainty > threshold:
result = run_fea(x) # Fall back to FEA
else:
result = mean_prediction
```
---
## Hybrid FEA/Neural Workflow
### Phase 1: FEA Exploration (50-100 trials)
- Run standard FEA optimization
- Export training data automatically
- Build landscape understanding
### Phase 2: Neural Training
- Parse collected data
- Train parametric predictor
- Validate accuracy
### Phase 3: Neural Acceleration (1000s of trials)
- Use neural network for rapid exploration
- Periodic FEA validation
- Retrain if distribution shifts
### Phase 4: FEA Refinement (10-20 trials)
- Validate top candidates with FEA
- Ensure results are physically accurate
- Generate final Pareto front
---
## Training Pipeline

```bash
python run_optimization.py --train --trials 100
```
### Step 2: Parse to Neural Format
```bash
cd atomizer-field
python batch_parser.py ../atomizer_field_training_data/my_study
```

{
"neural_surrogate": {
"enabled": true,
"model_checkpoint": "atomizer-field/runs/my_model/checkpoint_best.pt",
"confidence_threshold": 0.85
}
}
```
---
## Uncertainty Thresholds
| Uncertainty | Action |

# NX Documentation Lookup Module
## Overview
This module provides on-demand access to Siemens NX Open and Simcenter documentation via the Dalidou MCP server. Use these tools when building new extractors, NX automation scripts, or debugging NX-related issues.
## CRITICAL: When to AUTO-SEARCH Documentation
**You MUST call `siemens_docs_search` BEFORE writing any code that uses NX Open APIs.**
### Automatic Search Triggers
| User Request | Action Required |
|--------------|-----------------|
| "Create extractor for {X}" | → `siemens_docs_search("{X} NXOpen")` |
| "Get {property} from part" | → `siemens_docs_search("{property} NXOpen.Part")` |
| "Extract {data} from FEM" | → `siemens_docs_search("{data} NXOpen.CAE")` |
| "How do I {action} in NX" | → `siemens_docs_search("{action} NXOpen")` |
| Any code with `NXOpen.*` | → Search before writing |
### Example: User asks "Create an extractor for inertia values"
```
STEP 1: Immediately search
→ siemens_docs_search("inertia mass properties NXOpen")
STEP 2: Review results, fetch details
→ siemens_docs_fetch("NXOpen.MeasureManager")
STEP 3: Now write code with correct API calls
```
**DO NOT guess NX Open API names.** Always search first.
## When to Load
Load this module when:
- Creating new NX Open scripts or extractors
- Working with `NXOpen.*` namespaces
- Debugging NX automation errors
- User mentions "NX API", "NX Open", "Simcenter docs"
- Building features that interact with NX/Simcenter
## Available MCP Tools
### `siemens_docs_search`
**Purpose**: Search across NX Open, Simcenter, and Teamcenter documentation
**When to use**:
- Finding which class/method performs a specific task
- Discovering available APIs for a feature
- Looking up Nastran card references
**Examples**:
```
siemens_docs_search("get node coordinates FEM")
siemens_docs_search("CQUAD4 element properties")
siemens_docs_search("NXOpen.CAE mesh creation")
siemens_docs_search("extract stress results OP2")
```
### `siemens_docs_fetch`
**Purpose**: Fetch a specific documentation page with full content
**When to use**:
- Need complete class reference
- Getting detailed method signatures
- Reading full examples
**Examples**:
```
siemens_docs_fetch("NXOpen.CAE.FemPart")
siemens_docs_fetch("Nastran Quick Reference CQUAD4")
```
### `siemens_auth_status`
**Purpose**: Check if the Siemens SSO session is valid
**When to use**:
- Before a series of documentation lookups
- When fetch requests fail
- Debugging connection issues
### `siemens_login`
**Purpose**: Re-authenticate with Siemens if session expired
**When to use**:
- After `siemens_auth_status` shows expired
- When documentation fetches return auth errors
## Workflow: Building New Extractor
When creating a new extractor that uses NX Open APIs:
### Step 1: Search for Relevant APIs
```
→ siemens_docs_search("element stress results OP2")
```
Review results to identify candidate classes/methods.
### Step 2: Fetch Detailed Documentation
```
→ siemens_docs_fetch("NXOpen.CAE.Result")
```
Get full class documentation with method signatures.
### Step 3: Understand Data Formats
```
→ siemens_docs_search("CQUAD4 stress output format")
```
Understand Nastran output structure.
### Step 4: Build Extractor
Following EXT_01 template, create the extractor with:
- Proper API calls based on documentation
- Docstring referencing the APIs used
- Error handling for common NX exceptions
### Step 5: Document API Usage
In the extractor docstring:
```python
def extract_element_stress(op2_path: Path) -> Dict:
"""
Extract element stress results from OP2 file.
NX Open APIs Used:
- NXOpen.CAE.Result.AskElementStress
- NXOpen.CAE.ResultAccess.AskResultValues
Nastran Cards:
- CQUAD4, CTRIA3 (shell elements)
- STRESS case control
"""
```
## Workflow: Debugging NX Errors
When encountering NX Open errors:
### Step 1: Search for Correct API
```
Error: AttributeError: 'FemPart' object has no attribute 'GetNodes'
→ siemens_docs_search("FemPart get nodes")
```
### Step 2: Fetch Correct Class Reference
```
→ siemens_docs_fetch("NXOpen.CAE.FemPart")
```
Find the actual method name and signature.
### Step 3: Apply Fix
Document the correction:
```python
# Wrong: femPart.GetNodes()
# Right: femPart.BaseFEModel.FemMesh.Nodes
```
## Common Search Patterns
| Task | Search Query |
|------|--------------|
| Mesh operations | `siemens_docs_search("NXOpen.CAE mesh")` |
| Result extraction | `siemens_docs_search("CAE result OP2")` |
| Geometry access | `siemens_docs_search("NXOpen.Features body")` |
| Material properties | `siemens_docs_search("Nastran MAT1 material")` |
| Load application | `siemens_docs_search("CAE load force")` |
| Constraint setup | `siemens_docs_search("CAE boundary condition")` |
| Expressions/Parameters | `siemens_docs_search("NXOpen Expression")` |
| Part manipulation | `siemens_docs_search("NXOpen.Part")` |
## Key NX Open Namespaces
| Namespace | Domain |
|-----------|--------|
| `NXOpen.CAE` | FEA, meshing, results |
| `NXOpen.Features` | Parametric features |
| `NXOpen.Assemblies` | Assembly operations |
| `NXOpen.Part` | Part-level operations |
| `NXOpen.UF` | User Function (legacy) |
| `NXOpen.GeometricUtilities` | Geometry helpers |
## Integration with Extractors
All extractors in `optimization_engine/extractors/` should:
1. **Search before coding**: Use `siemens_docs_search` to find correct APIs
2. **Document API usage**: List NX Open APIs in docstring
3. **Handle NX exceptions**: Catch `NXOpen.NXException` appropriately
4. **Follow 20-line rule**: If extraction is complex, check if existing extractor handles it
## Troubleshooting
| Issue | Solution |
|-------|----------|
| Auth errors | Run `siemens_auth_status`, then `siemens_login` if needed |
| No results | Try broader search terms, check namespace spelling |
| Incomplete docs | Fetch the parent class for full context |
| Network errors | Verify Dalidou is accessible: `ping dalidou.local` |

# Zernike Optimization Module
**Last Updated**: December 5, 2025
**Version**: 1.0
**Type**: Optional Module
This module provides specialized guidance for telescope mirror and optical surface optimization using Zernike polynomial decomposition.
---
## When to Load
- User mentions "telescope", "mirror", "optical", "wavefront"
- Optimization involves surface deformation analysis
- Need to extract Zernike coefficients from FEA results
- Working with multi-subcase elevation angle comparisons
---
## Zernike Extractors (E8-E10)
| ID | Extractor | Function | Input | Output | Use Case |
|----|-----------|----------|-------|--------|----------|
| E8 | **Zernike WFE** | `extract_zernike_from_op2()` | `.op2` + `.bdf` | nm | Single subcase wavefront error |
| E9 | **Zernike Relative** | `extract_zernike_relative_rms()` | `.op2` + `.bdf` | nm | Compare target vs reference subcase |
| E10 | **Zernike Helpers** | `ZernikeObjectiveBuilder` | `.op2` | nm | Multi-subcase optimization builder |
---
## E8: Single Subcase Zernike Extraction
Extract Zernike coefficients and RMS metrics for a single subcase (e.g., one elevation angle).
```python
from optimization_engine.extractors.extract_zernike import extract_zernike_from_op2
# Extract Zernike coefficients and RMS metrics for a single subcase
result = extract_zernike_from_op2(
op2_file,
bdf_file=None, # Auto-detect from op2 location
subcase="20", # Subcase label (e.g., "20" = 20 deg elevation)
displacement_unit="mm"
)
global_rms = result['global_rms_nm'] # Total surface RMS in nm
filtered_rms = result['filtered_rms_nm'] # RMS with low orders removed
coefficients = result['coefficients'] # List of 50 Zernike coefficients
```
**Return Dictionary**:
```python
{
'global_rms_nm': 45.2, # Total surface RMS (nm)
'filtered_rms_nm': 12.8, # RMS with J1-J4 (piston, tip, tilt, defocus) removed
'coefficients': [0.0, 12.3, ...], # 50 Zernike coefficients (Noll indexing)
'n_nodes': 5432, # Number of surface nodes
'rms_per_mode': {...} # RMS contribution per Zernike mode
}
```
**When to Use**:
- Single elevation angle analysis
- Polishing orientation (zenith) wavefront error
- Absolute surface quality metrics
---
## E9: Relative RMS Between Subcases
Compare wavefront error between two subcases (e.g., 40° vs 20° reference).
```python
from optimization_engine.extractors.extract_zernike import extract_zernike_relative_rms
# Compare wavefront error between subcases (e.g., 40 deg vs 20 deg reference)
result = extract_zernike_relative_rms(
op2_file,
bdf_file=None,
target_subcase="40", # Target orientation
reference_subcase="20", # Reference (usually polishing orientation)
displacement_unit="mm"
)
relative_rms = result['relative_filtered_rms_nm'] # Differential WFE in nm
delta_coeffs = result['delta_coefficients'] # Coefficient differences
```
**Return Dictionary**:
```python
{
'relative_filtered_rms_nm': 8.7, # Differential WFE (target - reference)
'delta_coefficients': [...], # Coefficient differences
'target_rms_nm': 52.3, # Target subcase absolute RMS
'reference_rms_nm': 45.2, # Reference subcase absolute RMS
'improvement_percent': -15.7 # Negative = worse than reference
}
```
**When to Use**:
- Comparing performance across elevation angles
- Minimizing deformation relative to polishing orientation
- Multi-angle telescope mirror optimization
---
## E10: Multi-Subcase Objective Builder
Build objectives for multiple subcases in a single extractor (most efficient for complex optimization).
```python
from optimization_engine.extractors.zernike_helpers import ZernikeObjectiveBuilder
# Build objectives for multiple subcases in one extractor
builder = ZernikeObjectiveBuilder(
op2_finder=lambda: model_dir / "ASSY_M1-solution_1.op2"
)
# Add relative objectives (target vs reference)
builder.add_relative_objective(
"40", "20", # 40° vs 20° reference
metric="relative_filtered_rms_nm",
weight=5.0
)
builder.add_relative_objective(
"60", "20", # 60° vs 20° reference
metric="relative_filtered_rms_nm",
weight=5.0
)
# Add absolute objective for polishing orientation
builder.add_subcase_objective(
"90", # Zenith (polishing orientation)
metric="rms_filter_j1to3", # Only remove piston, tip, tilt
weight=1.0
)
# Evaluate all at once (efficient - parses OP2 only once)
results = builder.evaluate_all()
# Returns: {'rel_40_vs_20': 4.2, 'rel_60_vs_20': 8.7, 'rms_90': 15.3}
```
**When to Use**:
- Multi-objective telescope optimization
- Multiple elevation angles to optimize
- Weighted combination of absolute and relative WFE
---
## Zernike Modes Reference
| Noll Index | Name | Physical Meaning | Correctability |
|------------|------|------------------|----------------|
| J1 | Piston | Constant offset | Easily corrected |
| J2 | Tip | X-tilt | Easily corrected |
| J3 | Tilt | Y-tilt | Easily corrected |
| J4 | Defocus | Power error | Easily corrected |
| J5 | Astigmatism (0°) | Cylindrical error | Correctable |
| J6 | Astigmatism (45°) | Cylindrical error | Correctable |
| J7 | Coma (x) | Off-axis aberration | Harder to correct |
| J8 | Coma (y) | Off-axis aberration | Harder to correct |
| J9-J10 | Trefoil | Triangular error | Hard to correct |
| J11+ | Higher order | Complex aberrations | Very hard to correct |
**Filtering Convention**:
- `filtered_rms`: Removes J1-J4 (piston, tip, tilt, defocus) - standard
- `rms_filter_j1to3`: Removes only J1-J3 (keeps defocus) - for focus-sensitive applications
---
## Common Zernike Optimization Patterns
### Pattern 1: Minimize Relative WFE Across Elevations
```python
# Objective: Minimize max relative WFE across all elevation angles
objectives = [
{"name": "rel_40_vs_20", "goal": "minimize"},
{"name": "rel_60_vs_20", "goal": "minimize"},
]
# Use weighted sum or multi-objective
def objective(trial):
results = builder.evaluate_all()
return (results['rel_40_vs_20'], results['rel_60_vs_20'])
```
### Pattern 2: Single Elevation + Mass
```python
# Objective: Minimize WFE at 45° while minimizing mass
objectives = [
{"name": "wfe_45", "goal": "minimize"}, # Wavefront error
{"name": "mass", "goal": "minimize"}, # Mirror mass
]
```
### Pattern 3: Weighted Multi-Angle
```python
# Weighted combination of multiple angles
def combined_wfe(trial):
results = builder.evaluate_all()
weighted_wfe = (
5.0 * results['rel_40_vs_20'] +
5.0 * results['rel_60_vs_20'] +
1.0 * results['rms_90']
)
return weighted_wfe
```
---
## Telescope Mirror Study Configuration
```json
{
"study_name": "m1_mirror_optimization",
"description": "Minimize wavefront error across elevation angles",
"objectives": [
{
"name": "wfe_40_vs_20",
"goal": "minimize",
"unit": "nm",
"extraction": {
"action": "extract_zernike_relative_rms",
"params": {
"target_subcase": "40",
"reference_subcase": "20"
}
}
}
],
"simulation": {
"analysis_types": ["static"],
"subcases": ["20", "40", "60", "90"],
"solution_name": null
}
}
```
---
## Performance Considerations
1. **Parse OP2 Once**: Use `ZernikeObjectiveBuilder` to parse the OP2 file only once per trial
2. **Subcase Labels**: Match exact subcase labels from NX simulation
3. **Node Selection**: Zernike extraction uses surface nodes only (auto-detected from BDF)
4. **Memory**: Large meshes (>50k nodes) may require chunked processing
---
## Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---------|-------|----------|
| "Subcase not found" | Wrong subcase label | Check NX .sim for exact labels |
| High J1-J4 coefficients | Rigid body motion not constrained | Check boundary conditions |
| NaN in coefficients | Insufficient nodes for polynomial order | Reduce max Zernike order |
| Inconsistent RMS | Different node sets per subcase | Verify mesh consistency |
| "Billion nm" RMS values | Node merge failed in AFEM | Check `MergeOccurrenceNodes = True` |
| Corrupt OP2 data | All-zero displacements | Validate OP2 before processing |
---
## Assembly FEM (AFEM) Structure for Mirrors
Telescope mirror assemblies in NX typically consist of:
```
ASSY_M1.prt # Master assembly part
ASSY_M1_assyfem1.afm # Assembly FEM container
ASSY_M1_assyfem1_sim1.sim # Simulation file (solve this)
M1_Blank.prt # Mirror blank part
M1_Blank_fem1.fem # Mirror blank mesh
M1_Vertical_Support_Skeleton.prt # Support structure
```
**Key Point**: Expressions in master `.prt` propagate through assembly → AFEM updates automatically.
---
## Multi-Subcase Gravity Analysis
For telescope mirrors, analyze multiple gravity orientations:
| Subcase | Elevation Angle | Purpose |
|---------|-----------------|---------|
| 1 | 90° (zenith) | Polishing orientation - manufacturing reference |
| 2 | 20° | Low elevation - reference for relative metrics |
| 3 | 40° | Mid-low elevation |
| 4 | 60° | Mid-high elevation |
**CRITICAL**: NX subcase numbers don't always match angle labels! Use explicit mapping:
```json
"subcase_labels": {
"1": "90deg",
"2": "20deg",

## Lessons Learned (M1 Mirror V1-V9)
### 1. TPE Sampler Seed Issue
**Problem**: Resuming study with fixed seed causes duplicate parameters.
**Solution**:
```python
if is_new_study:
sampler = TPESampler(seed=42)
else:
sampler = TPESampler() # No seed for resume
```
### 2. OP2 Data Validation
**Always validate before processing**:
```python
unique_values = len(np.unique(disp_z))
if unique_values < 10:
raise RuntimeError("CORRUPT OP2: insufficient unique values")
if np.abs(disp_z).max() > 1e6:
raise RuntimeError("CORRUPT OP2: unrealistic displacement")
```
### 3. Reference Subcase Selection
Use lowest operational elevation (typically 20°) as reference. Higher elevations show positive relative WFE as gravity effects increase.
### 4. Optical Convention
For mirror surface to wavefront error:
```python
WFE = 2 * surface_displacement # Reflection doubles path difference
wfe_nm = 2.0 * displacement_mm * 1e6 # Convert mm to nm
```

You are the AI orchestrator for **Atomizer**, an LLM-first FEA optimization framework. Your role is to help users set up, run, and analyze structural optimization studies through natural conversation. You are the AI orchestrator for **Atomizer**, an LLM-first FEA optimization framework. Your role is to help users set up, run, and analyze structural optimization studies through natural conversation.
## Quick Start - Protocol Operating System
**For ANY task, first check**: `.claude/skills/00_BOOTSTRAP.md`
This file provides:
- Task classification (CREATE → RUN → MONITOR → ANALYZE → DEBUG)
- Protocol routing (which docs to load)
- Role detection (user / power_user / admin)
## Core Philosophy ## Core Philosophy
**Talk, don't click.** Users describe what they want in plain language. You interpret, configure, execute, and explain. The dashboard is for monitoring - you handle the setup. **Talk, don't click.** Users describe what they want in plain language. You interpret, configure, execute, and explain.
## What Atomizer Does ## Context Loading Layers
Atomizer automates parametric FEA optimization using NX Nastran: The Protocol Operating System (POS) provides layered documentation:
- User describes optimization goals in natural language
- You create configurations, scripts, and study structure
- NX Nastran runs FEA simulations
- Optuna optimizes design parameters
- Neural networks accelerate repeated evaluations
- Dashboard visualizes results in real-time
## Your Capabilities | Layer | Location | When to Load |
|-------|----------|--------------|
| **Bootstrap** | `.claude/skills/00-02*.md` | Always (via this file) |
| **Operations** | `docs/protocols/operations/OP_*.md` | Per task type |
| **System** | `docs/protocols/system/SYS_*.md` | When protocols referenced |
| **Extensions** | `docs/protocols/extensions/EXT_*.md` | When extending (power_user+) |
### 1. Create Optimization Studies **Context loading rules**: See `.claude/skills/02_CONTEXT_LOADER.md`
When user wants to optimize something:
- Gather requirements through conversation
- Read `.claude/skills/create-study.md` for the full protocol
- Generate all configuration files
- Validate setup before running
### 2. Analyze NX Models ## Task → Protocol Quick Lookup
When user provides NX files:
- Extract expressions (design parameters)
- Identify simulation setup
- Suggest optimization targets
- Check for multi-solution requirements

| Debug issues | OP_06 | `docs/protocols/operations/OP_06_TROUBLESHOOT.md` |
### 4. Configure Neural Network Surrogates ## System Protocols (Technical Specs)
When optimization needs >50 trials:
- Generate space-filling training data
- Run parallel FEA for training
- Train and validate surrogates
- Enable accelerated optimization
### 5. Troubleshoot Issues | # | Name | When to Load |

## Conversation Patterns ## CRITICAL: NX Open Development Protocol
### User: "I want to optimize this bracket" ### Always Use Official Documentation First
1. Ask about model location, goals, constraints
2. Load skill: `.claude/skills/create-study.md`
3. Follow the interactive discovery process
4. Generate files, validate, confirm
### User: "Run 200 trials with neural network" **For ANY development involving NX, NX Open, or Siemens APIs:**
1. Check if surrogate_settings needed
2. Modify config to enable NN
3. Explain the hybrid workflow stages
4. Start run, show monitoring options
### User: "What's the status?" 1. **FIRST** - Query the MCP Siemens docs tools:
1. Query database for trial counts - `mcp__siemens-docs__nxopen_get_class` - Get class documentation
2. Check for running background processes - `mcp__siemens-docs__nxopen_get_index` - Browse class/function indexes
3. Summarize progress and best results - `mcp__siemens-docs__siemens_docs_list` - List available resources
4. Suggest next steps
### User: "The optimization failed" 2. **THEN** - Use secondary sources if needed:
1. Read error logs - PyNastran documentation (for BDF/OP2 parsing)
2. Check common failure modes - NXOpen TSE examples in `nx_journals/`
3. Suggest fixes - Existing extractors in `optimization_engine/extractors/`
4. Offer to retry
## Protocols Reference 3. **NEVER** - Guess NX Open API calls without checking documentation first
| Protocol | Use Case | Sampler | **Available NX Open Classes (quick lookup):**
|----------|----------|---------| | Class | Page ID | Description |
| Protocol 10 | Single objective + constraints | TPE/CMA-ES | |-------|---------|-------------|
| Protocol 11 | Multi-objective (2-3 goals) | NSGA-II | | Session | a03318.html | Main NX session object |
| Protocol 12 | Hybrid FEA/NN acceleration | NSGA-II + surrogate | | Part | a02434.html | Part file operations |
| BasePart | a00266.html | Base class for parts |
## Result Extraction | CaeSession | a10510.html | CAE/FEM session |
| PdmSession | a50542.html | PDM integration |
Use centralized extractors from `optimization_engine/extractors/`:
| Need | Extractor | Example |
|------|-----------|---------|
| Displacement | `extract_displacement` | Max tip deflection |
| Stress | `extract_solid_stress` | Max von Mises |
| Frequency | `extract_frequency` | 1st natural freq |
| Mass | `extract_mass_from_expression` | CAD mass property |
## Multi-Solution Detection
If user needs BOTH:
- Static results (stress, displacement)
- Modal results (frequency)
Then set `solution_name=None` to solve ALL solutions.
## Validation Before Action
Always validate before:
- Starting optimization (config validator)
- Generating files (check paths exist)
- Running FEA (check NX files present)
## Dashboard Integration
- Setup/Config: **You handle it**
- Real-time monitoring: **Dashboard at localhost:3000**
- Results analysis: **Both (you interpret, dashboard visualizes)**
## CRITICAL: Code Reuse Protocol (MUST FOLLOW)
### STOP! Before Writing ANY Code in run_optimization.py
**This is the #1 cause of code duplication. EVERY TIME you're about to write:**
- A function longer than 20 lines
- Any physics/math calculations (Zernike, RMS, stress, etc.)
- Any OP2/BDF parsing logic
- Any post-processing or extraction logic
**STOP and run this checklist:**
**Example workflow for NX journal development:**
``` ```
□ Did I check optimization_engine/extractors/__init__.py? 1. User: "Extract mass from NX part"
□ Did I grep for similar function names in optimization_engine/? 2. Claude: Query nxopen_get_class("Part") to find mass-related methods
□ Does this functionality exist somewhere else in the codebase? 3. Claude: Query nxopen_get_class("Session") to understand part access
4. Claude: Check existing extractors for similar functionality
5. Claude: Write code using verified API calls
``` ```
**MCP Server Setup:** See `mcp-server/README.md`
## CRITICAL: Code Reuse Protocol
### The 20-Line Rule ### The 20-Line Rule
If you're writing a function longer than ~20 lines in `studies/*/run_optimization.py`: If you're writing a function longer than ~20 lines in `run_optimization.py`:
1. **STOP** - This is a code smell 1. **STOP** - This is a code smell
2. **SEARCH** - The functionality probably exists 2. **SEARCH** - Check `optimization_engine/extractors/`
3. **IMPORT** - Use the existing module 3. **IMPORT** - Use existing extractor
4. **Only if truly new** - Create in `optimization_engine/extractors/`, NOT in the study 4. **Only if truly new** - Follow EXT_01 to create new extractor
### Available Extractors (ALWAYS CHECK FIRST) ### Available Extractors
| Module | Functions | Use For | | ID | Physics | Function |
|--------|-----------|---------| |----|---------|----------|
| **`extract_zernike.py`** | `ZernikeExtractor`, `extract_zernike_from_op2`, `extract_zernike_filtered_rms`, `extract_zernike_relative_rms` | Telescope mirror WFE analysis - Noll indexing, RMS calculations, multi-subcase | | E1 | Displacement | `extract_displacement()` |
| **`zernike_helpers.py`** | `create_zernike_objective`, `ZernikeObjectiveBuilder`, `extract_zernike_for_trial` | Zernike optimization integration | | E2 | Frequency | `extract_frequency()` |
| **`extract_displacement.py`** | `extract_displacement` | Max/min displacement from OP2 | | E3 | Stress | `extract_solid_stress()` |
| **`extract_von_mises_stress.py`** | `extract_solid_stress` | Von Mises stress extraction | | E4 | BDF Mass | `extract_mass_from_bdf()` |
| **`extract_frequency.py`** | `extract_frequency` | Natural frequencies from OP2 | | E5 | CAD Mass | `extract_mass_from_expression()` |
| **`extract_mass.py`** | `extract_mass_from_expression` | CAD mass property | | E8-10 | Zernike | `extract_zernike_*()` |
| **`op2_extractor.py`** | Generic OP2 result extraction | Low-level OP2 access |
| **`field_data_extractor.py`** | Field data for neural networks | Training data generation |
### Correct Pattern: Zernike Example **Full catalog**: `docs/protocols/system/SYS_12_EXTRACTOR_LIBRARY.md`
**❌ WRONG - What I did (and must NEVER do again):** ## Privilege Levels
```python
# studies/m1_mirror/run_optimization.py
def noll_indices(j): # 30 lines
...
def zernike_radial(n, m, r): # 20 lines
...
def compute_zernike_coefficients(...): # 80 lines
...
def compute_rms_metrics(...): # 40 lines
...
# Total: 500+ lines of duplicated code
```
**✅ CORRECT - What I should have done:** | Level | Operations | Extensions |
```python |-------|------------|------------|
# studies/m1_mirror/run_optimization.py | **user** | All OP_* | None |
from optimization_engine.extractors import ( | **power_user** | All OP_* | EXT_01, EXT_02 |
ZernikeExtractor, | **admin** | All | All |
extract_zernike_for_trial
)
# In objective function - 5 lines instead of 500 Default to `user` unless explicitly stated otherwise.
extractor = ZernikeExtractor(op2_file, bdf_file)
result = extractor.extract_relative(target_subcase="40", reference_subcase="20")
filtered_rms = result['relative_filtered_rms_nm']
```
### Creating New Extractors (Only When Truly Needed)
When functionality genuinely doesn't exist:
```
1. CREATE module in optimization_engine/extractors/new_feature.py
2. ADD exports to optimization_engine/extractors/__init__.py
3. UPDATE this table in CLAUDE.md
4. IMPORT in run_optimization.py (just the import, not the implementation)
```
### Why This Is Critical
| Embedding Code in Studies | Using Central Extractors |
|---------------------------|-------------------------|
| Bug fixes don't propagate | Fix once, applies everywhere |
| No unit tests | Tested in isolation |
| Hard to discover | Clear API in __init__.py |
| Copy-paste errors | Single source of truth |
| 500+ line studies | Clean, readable studies |
## Key Principles ## Key Principles
1. **Conversation first** - Don't ask user to edit JSON manually 1. **Conversation first** - Don't ask user to edit JSON manually
2. **Validate everything** - Catch errors before they cause failures 2. **Validate everything** - Catch errors before they cause failures
3. **Explain decisions** - Say why you chose a sampler/protocol 3. **Explain decisions** - Say why you chose a sampler/protocol
4. **Sensible defaults** - User only specifies what they care about 4. **NEVER modify master files** - Copy NX files to study directory
5. **Progressive disclosure** - Start simple, add complexity when needed 5. **ALWAYS reuse code** - Check extractors before writing new code
6. **NEVER modify master files** - Always copy model files to study working directory before optimization. User's source files must remain untouched. If corruption occurs during iteration, working copy can be deleted and re-copied.
7. **ALWAYS reuse existing code** - Check `optimization_engine/extractors/` BEFORE writing any new post-processing logic. Never duplicate functionality that already exists.
## Current State Awareness ## CRITICAL: NX FEM Mesh Update Requirements
Check these before suggesting actions: **When parametric optimization produces identical results, the mesh is NOT updating!**
- Running background processes: `/tasks` command
- Study databases: `studies/*/2_results/study.db` ### Required File Chain
- Model files: `studies/*/1_setup/model/` ```
- Dashboard status: Check if servers running .sim (Simulation)
└── .fem (FEM)
└── *_i.prt (Idealized Part) ← MUST EXIST AND BE LOADED!
└── .prt (Geometry Part)
```
### The Fix (Already Implemented in solve_simulation.py)
The idealized part (`*_i.prt`) MUST be explicitly loaded BEFORE calling `UpdateFemodel()`:
```python
# STEP 2: Load idealized part first (CRITICAL!)
for filename in os.listdir(working_dir):
if '_i.prt' in filename.lower():
idealized_part, status = theSession.Parts.Open(path)
break
# THEN update FEM - now it will actually regenerate the mesh
feModel.UpdateFemodel()
```
**Without loading the `_i.prt`, `UpdateFemodel()` runs but the mesh doesn't change!**
### Study Setup Checklist
When creating a new study, ensure ALL these files are copied:
- [ ] `Model.prt` - Geometry part
- [ ] `Model_fem1_i.prt` - Idealized part ← **OFTEN MISSING!**
- [ ] `Model_fem1.fem` - FEM file
- [ ] `Model_sim1.sim` - Simulation file
See `docs/protocols/operations/OP_06_TROUBLESHOOT.md` for full troubleshooting guide.

## Overview
This protocol guides you through creating a new physics extractor for the centralized extractor library. Follow this when you need to extract results not covered by existing extractors.
**Privilege Required**: power_user or admin
---
## When to Use
| Trigger | Action |
|---------|--------|
| Need physics not in library | Follow this protocol |
| "create extractor", "new extractor" | Follow this protocol |
| Custom result extraction needed | Follow this protocol |
**First**: Check [SYS_12_EXTRACTOR_LIBRARY](../system/SYS_12_EXTRACTOR_LIBRARY.md) - the functionality may already exist!
---
## Quick Reference
**Create in**: `optimization_engine/extractors/`
**Export from**: `optimization_engine/extractors/__init__.py`
**Document in**: Update SYS_12 and this protocol
**Template location**: `docs/protocols/extensions/templates/extractor_template.py`
---
## Step-by-Step Guide
### Step 1: Verify Need
Before creating:
1. Check existing extractors in [SYS_12](../system/SYS_12_EXTRACTOR_LIBRARY.md)
2. Search codebase: `grep -r "your_physics" optimization_engine/`
3. Confirm no existing solution
### Step 1.5: Research NX Open APIs (REQUIRED for NX extractors)
**If the extractor needs NX Open APIs** (not just pyNastran OP2 parsing):
```
# 1. Search for relevant NX Open APIs
siemens_docs_search("inertia properties NXOpen")
siemens_docs_search("mass properties body NXOpen.CAE")
# 2. Fetch detailed documentation for promising classes
siemens_docs_fetch("NXOpen.MeasureManager")
siemens_docs_fetch("NXOpen.UF.UFWeight")
# 3. Get method signatures
siemens_docs_search("AskMassProperties NXOpen")
```
**When to use NX Open vs pyNastran:**
| Data Source | Tool | Example |
|-------------|------|---------|
| OP2 results (stress, disp, freq) | pyNastran | `extract_displacement()` |
| CAD properties (mass, inertia) | NX Open | New extractor with NXOpen API |
| BDF data (mesh, properties) | pyNastran | `extract_mass_from_bdf()` |
| NX expressions | NX Open | `extract_mass_from_expression()` |
| FEM model data | NX Open CAE | Needs `NXOpen.CAE.*` APIs |
**Document the APIs used** in the extractor docstring:
```python
def extract_inertia(part_file: Path) -> Dict[str, Any]:
"""
Extract mass and inertia properties from NX part.
NX Open APIs Used:
- NXOpen.MeasureManager.NewMassProperties()
- NXOpen.MeasureBodies.InformationUnit
- NXOpen.UF.UFWeight.AskProps()
See: docs.sw.siemens.com for full API reference
"""
```
### Step 2: Create Extractor File
Create `optimization_engine/extractors/extract_{physics}.py`:
```python
"""
Extract {Physics Name} from FEA results.
Author: {Your Name}
Created: {Date}
Version: 1.0
"""
from pathlib import Path
from typing import Dict, Any, Optional, Union
from pyNastran.op2.op2 import OP2
def extract_{physics}(
op2_file: Union[str, Path],
subcase: int = 1,
# Add other parameters as needed
) -> Dict[str, Any]:
"""
Extract {physics description} from OP2 file.
Args:
op2_file: Path to the OP2 results file
subcase: Subcase number to extract (default: 1)
Returns:
Dictionary containing:
- '{main_result}': The primary result value
- '{secondary}': Additional result info

# Or for class
from .extract_{physics} import {Physics}Extractor
# Add to __all__
__all__ = [
# ... existing exports ...
'extract_{physics}',
'{Physics}Extractor',
]
```
### Step 4: Write Tests
Create `tests/test_extract_{physics}.py`:
```python
"""Tests for {physics} extractor."""
import pytest
from pathlib import Path
from optimization_engine.extractors import extract_{physics}
class TestExtract{Physics}:
"""Test suite for {physics} extraction."""
@pytest.fixture

def test_invalid_subcase(self, sample_op2):
"""Test error handling for invalid subcase."""
with pytest.raises(KeyError):
extract_{physics}(sample_op2, subcase=999)
```
### Step 5: Document
#### Update SYS_12_EXTRACTOR_LIBRARY.md
Add to Quick Reference table:
```markdown
| E{N} | {Physics} | `extract_{physics}()` | .op2 | {unit} |
```
Add detailed section:
```markdown
### E{N}: {Physics} Extraction
**Module**: `optimization_engine.extractors.extract_{physics}`
\`\`\`python
from optimization_engine.extractors import extract_{physics}
result = extract_{physics}(op2_file, subcase=1)
{main_result} = result['{main_result}']
\`\`\`
```
#### Update skills/modules/extractors-catalog.md
Add entry following existing pattern.
### Step 6: Validate
```bash
# Run tests
pytest tests/test_extract_{physics}.py -v
# Test import
python -c "from optimization_engine.extractors import extract_{physics}; print('OK')"
# Test with real file
python -c "
from optimization_engine.extractors import extract_{physics}
result = extract_{physics}('path/to/test.op2')
print(result)
"
```

## Extractor Design Guidelines
### Do's
- Return dictionaries with clear keys
- Include metadata (subcase, units, etc.)
- Handle edge cases gracefully
- Provide clear error messages
- Document all parameters and returns
- Write tests
### Don'ts
- Don't re-parse OP2 multiple times in one call
- Don't hardcode paths
- Don't swallow exceptions silently
- Don't return raw pyNastran objects
- Don't modify input files
### Naming Conventions
| Type | Convention | Example |
|------|------------|---------|
| File | `extract_{physics}.py` | `extract_thermal.py` |
| Function | `extract_{physics}` | `extract_thermal` |
| Class | `{Physics}Extractor` | `ThermalExtractor` |
| Return key | lowercase_with_underscores | `max_temperature` |
---
## Examples
### Example: Thermal Gradient Extractor
```python
"""Extract thermal gradients from temperature results."""
from pathlib import Path
from typing import Dict, Any
from pyNastran.op2.op2 import OP2
import numpy as np
def extract_thermal_gradient(
op2_file: Path,
subcase: int = 1,
direction: str = 'magnitude'
) -> Dict[str, Any]:
"""
Extract thermal gradient from temperature field.
Args:
op2_file: Path to OP2 file
subcase: Subcase number
direction: 'magnitude', 'x', 'y', or 'z'
Returns:
Dictionary with gradient results
"""
op2 = OP2()
op2.read_op2(str(op2_file))
temps = op2.temperatures[subcase]
# Calculate gradient...
return {
'max_gradient': max_grad,
'mean_gradient': mean_grad,
'max_gradient_location': location,
'direction': direction,
'subcase': subcase,
'unit': 'K/mm'
}
```
---
## Troubleshooting
| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Import error | Not added to __init__.py | Add export |
| "No module" | Wrong file location | Check path |
| KeyError | Wrong OP2 data structure | Debug OP2 contents |
| Tests fail | Missing test data | Create fixtures |

# EXT_02: Create Lifecycle Hook
<!--
PROTOCOL: Create Lifecycle Hook Plugin
LAYER: Extensions
VERSION: 1.0
STATUS: Active
LAST_UPDATED: 2025-12-05
PRIVILEGE: power_user
LOAD_WITH: []
-->
## Overview
This protocol guides you through creating lifecycle hooks that execute at specific points during optimization. Hooks enable custom logic injection without modifying core code.
**Privilege Required**: power_user or admin
---
## When to Use
| Trigger | Action |
|---------|--------|
| Need custom logic at specific point | Follow this protocol |
| "create hook", "callback" | Follow this protocol |
| Want to log/validate/modify at runtime | Follow this protocol |
---
## Quick Reference
**Hook Points Available**:
| Hook Point | When It Runs | Use Case |
|------------|--------------|----------|
| `pre_mesh` | Before meshing | Validate geometry |
| `post_mesh` | After meshing | Check mesh quality |
| `pre_solve` | Before solver | Log trial start |
| `post_solve` | After solver | Validate results |
| `post_extraction` | After extraction | Custom metrics |
| `post_calculation` | After objectives | Derived quantities |
| `custom_objective` | Custom objective | Complex objectives |
**Create in**: `optimization_engine/plugins/{hook_point}/`
---
## Step-by-Step Guide
### Step 1: Identify Hook Point
Choose the appropriate hook point:
```
Trial Flow:
├─► PRE_MESH → Validate model before meshing
├─► POST_MESH → Check mesh quality
├─► PRE_SOLVE → Log trial start, validate inputs
├─► POST_SOLVE → Check solve success, capture timing
├─► POST_EXTRACTION → Compute derived quantities
├─► POST_CALCULATION → Final validation, logging
└─► CUSTOM_OBJECTIVE → Custom objective functions
```
### Step 2: Create Hook File
Create `optimization_engine/plugins/{hook_point}/{hook_name}.py`:
```python
"""
{Hook Description}
Author: {Your Name}
Created: {Date}
Version: 1.0
Hook Point: {hook_point}
"""
from typing import Dict, Any
def {hook_name}_hook(context: Dict[str, Any]) -> Dict[str, Any]:
"""
{Description of what this hook does}.
Args:
context: Dictionary containing:
- trial_number: Current trial number
- design_params: Current design parameters
- results: Results so far (if post-extraction)
- config: Optimization config
- working_dir: Path to working directory
Returns:
Dictionary with computed values or modifications.
Return empty dict if no modifications needed.
Example:
>>> result = {hook_name}_hook({'trial_number': 1, ...})
>>> print(result)
{'{computed_key}': 123.45}
"""
# Access context
trial_num = context.get('trial_number')
design_params = context.get('design_params', {})
results = context.get('results', {})
# Your logic here
# ...
# Return computed values
return {
'{computed_key}': computed_value,
}
def register_hooks(hook_manager):
"""
Register this hook with the hook manager.
This function is called automatically when plugins are loaded.
Args:
hook_manager: The HookManager instance
"""
hook_manager.register_hook(
hook_point='{hook_point}',
function={hook_name}_hook,
name='{hook_name}_hook',
description='{Brief description}',
priority=100, # Lower = runs earlier
enabled=True
)
```
### Step 3: Test Hook
```python
# Test in isolation
from optimization_engine.plugins.{hook_point}.{hook_name} import {hook_name}_hook
test_context = {
'trial_number': 1,
'design_params': {'thickness': 5.0},
'results': {'max_stress': 200.0},
}
result = {hook_name}_hook(test_context)
print(result)
```
### Step 4: Enable Hook
Hooks are auto-discovered from the plugins directory. To verify:
```python
from optimization_engine.plugins.hook_manager import HookManager
manager = HookManager()
manager.discover_plugins()
print(manager.list_hooks())
```
---
## Hook Examples
### Example 1: Safety Factor Calculator (post_calculation)
```python
"""Calculate safety factor after stress extraction."""
def safety_factor_hook(context):
"""Calculate safety factor from stress results."""
results = context.get('results', {})
config = context.get('config', {})
max_stress = results.get('max_von_mises', 0)
yield_strength = config.get('material', {}).get('yield_strength', 250)
if max_stress > 0:
safety_factor = yield_strength / max_stress
else:
safety_factor = float('inf')
return {
'safety_factor': safety_factor,
'yield_strength': yield_strength,
}
def register_hooks(hook_manager):
hook_manager.register_hook(
hook_point='post_calculation',
function=safety_factor_hook,
name='safety_factor_hook',
description='Calculate safety factor from stress',
priority=100,
enabled=True
)
```
### Example 2: Trial Logger (pre_solve)
```python
"""Log trial information before solve."""
import json
from datetime import datetime
from pathlib import Path
def trial_logger_hook(context):
"""Log trial start information."""
trial_num = context.get('trial_number')
design_params = context.get('design_params', {})
working_dir = context.get('working_dir', Path('.'))
log_entry = {
'trial': trial_num,
'timestamp': datetime.now().isoformat(),
'params': design_params,
}
log_file = working_dir / 'trial_log.jsonl'
with open(log_file, 'a') as f:
f.write(json.dumps(log_entry) + '\n')
return {} # No modifications
def register_hooks(hook_manager):
hook_manager.register_hook(
hook_point='pre_solve',
function=trial_logger_hook,
name='trial_logger_hook',
description='Log trial parameters before solve',
priority=10, # Run early
enabled=True
)
```
### Example 3: Mesh Quality Check (post_mesh)
```python
"""Validate mesh quality after meshing."""
def mesh_quality_hook(context):
"""Check mesh quality metrics."""
mesh_file = context.get('mesh_file')
# Check quality metrics
quality_issues = []
# ... quality checks ...
if quality_issues:
context['warnings'] = context.get('warnings', []) + quality_issues
return {
'mesh_quality_passed': len(quality_issues) == 0,
'mesh_issues': quality_issues,
}
def register_hooks(hook_manager):
hook_manager.register_hook(
hook_point='post_mesh',
function=mesh_quality_hook,
name='mesh_quality_hook',
description='Validate mesh quality',
priority=50,
enabled=True
)
```
---
## Hook Context Reference
### Standard Context Keys
| Key | Type | Available At | Description |
|-----|------|--------------|-------------|
| `trial_number` | int | All | Current trial number |
| `design_params` | dict | All | Design parameter values |
| `config` | dict | All | Optimization config |
| `working_dir` | Path | All | Study working directory |
| `model_file` | Path | pre_mesh+ | NX model file path |
| `mesh_file` | Path | post_mesh+ | Mesh file path |
| `op2_file` | Path | post_solve+ | Results file path |
| `results` | dict | post_extraction+ | Extracted results |
| `objectives` | dict | post_calculation | Computed objectives |
### Priority Guidelines
| Priority Range | Use For |
|----------------|---------|
| 1-50 | Critical hooks that must run first |
| 50-100 | Standard hooks |
| 100-150 | Logging and monitoring |
| 150+ | Cleanup and finalization |
---
## Managing Hooks
### Enable/Disable at Runtime
```python
hook_manager.disable_hook('my_hook')
hook_manager.enable_hook('my_hook')
```
### Check Hook Status
```python
hooks = hook_manager.list_hooks()
for hook in hooks:
print(f"{hook['name']}: {'enabled' if hook['enabled'] else 'disabled'}")
```
### Hook Execution Order
Hooks at the same point run in priority order (lower first):
```
Priority 10: trial_logger_hook
Priority 50: mesh_quality_hook
Priority 100: safety_factor_hook
```
---
## Troubleshooting
| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Hook not running | Not registered | Check `register_hooks` function |
| Wrong hook point | Misnamed directory | Check directory name matches hook point |
| Context missing key | Wrong hook point | Use appropriate hook point for data needed |
| Hook error crashes trial | Unhandled exception | Add try/except in hook |

# EXT_04: Create New Skill
<!--
PROTOCOL: Create New Skill or Module
LAYER: Extensions
VERSION: 1.0
STATUS: Active
LAST_UPDATED: 2025-12-05
PRIVILEGE: admin
LOAD_WITH: []
-->
## Overview
This protocol guides you through creating new skills or skill modules for the LLM instruction system. Skills provide task-specific guidance to Claude sessions.
**Privilege Required**: admin
---
## When to Use
| Trigger | Action |
|---------|--------|
| Need new LLM capability | Follow this protocol |
| "create skill", "new skill" | Follow this protocol |
| Task pattern needs documentation | Follow this protocol |
---
## Skill Types
| Type | Location | Purpose | Example |
|------|----------|---------|---------|
| Bootstrap | `.claude/skills/0X_*.md` | LLM orientation | 00_BOOTSTRAP.md |
| Core | `.claude/skills/core/` | Always-load skills | study-creation-core.md |
| Module | `.claude/skills/modules/` | Optional, load-on-demand | extractors-catalog.md |
| Dev | `.claude/skills/DEV_*.md` | Developer workflows | DEV_DOCUMENTATION.md |
---
## Step-by-Step Guide
### Step 1: Determine Skill Type
**Bootstrap (0X_)**: System-level LLM guidance
- Task classification
- Context loading rules
- Execution patterns
**Core**: Essential task skills that are always loaded
- Study creation
- Run optimization (basic)
**Module**: Specialized skills loaded on demand
- Specific extractors
- Domain-specific (Zernike, neural)
- Advanced features
**Dev (DEV_)**: Developer-facing workflows
- Documentation maintenance
- Testing procedures
- Contribution guides
### Step 2: Create Skill File
#### For Core/Module Skills
```markdown
# {Skill Name}
**Version**: 1.0
**Purpose**: {One-line description}
---
## Overview
{What this skill enables Claude to do}
---
## When to Load
This skill should be loaded when:
- {Condition 1}
- {Condition 2}
---
## Quick Reference
{Tables with key patterns, commands}
---
## Detailed Instructions
### Pattern 1: {Name}
{Step-by-step instructions}
**Example**:
\`\`\`python
{code example}
\`\`\`
### Pattern 2: {Name}
{Step-by-step instructions}
---
## Code Templates
### Template 1: {Name}
\`\`\`python
{copy-paste ready code}
\`\`\`
---
## Validation
Before completing:
- [ ] {Check 1}
- [ ] {Check 2}
---
## Related
- **Protocol**: [{related}]({path})
- **Module**: [{related}]({path})
```
### Step 3: Register Skill
#### For Bootstrap Skills
Add to `00_BOOTSTRAP.md` task classification tree.
#### For Core Skills
Add to `02_CONTEXT_LOADER.md`:
```yaml
{TASK_TYPE}:
always_load:
- core/{skill_name}.md
```
#### For Modules
Add to `02_CONTEXT_LOADER.md`:
```yaml
{TASK_TYPE}:
load_if:
- modules/{skill_name}.md: "{condition}"
```
### Step 4: Update Navigation
Add to `01_CHEATSHEET.md` if relevant to common tasks.
### Step 5: Test
Test with fresh Claude session:
1. Start new conversation
2. Describe task that should trigger skill
3. Verify correct skill is loaded
4. Verify skill instructions are followed
---
## Skill Design Guidelines
### Structure
- **Front-load**: Most important info first
- **Tables**: Use for structured data
- **Code blocks**: Complete, copy-paste ready
- **Checklists**: For validation steps
### Content
- **Task-focused**: What should Claude DO?
- **Prescriptive**: Clear instructions, not options
- **Examples**: Show expected patterns
- **Validation**: How to verify success
### Length Guidelines
| Skill Type | Target Lines | Rationale |
|------------|--------------|-----------|
| Bootstrap | 100-200 | Quick orientation |
| Core | 500-1000 | Comprehensive task guide |
| Module | 150-400 | Focused specialization |
### Avoid
- Duplicating protocol content (reference instead)
- Vague instructions ("consider" → "do")
- Missing examples
- Untested code
---
## Module vs Protocol
**Skills** teach Claude HOW to interact:
- Conversation patterns
- Code templates
- Validation steps
- User interaction
**Protocols** document WHAT exists:
- Technical specifications
- Configuration options
- Architecture details
- Troubleshooting
Skills REFERENCE protocols, don't duplicate them.
---
## Examples
### Example: Domain-Specific Module
`modules/thermal-optimization.md`:
```markdown
# Thermal Optimization Module
**Version**: 1.0
**Purpose**: Specialized guidance for thermal FEA optimization
---
## When to Load
Load when:
- "thermal", "temperature", "heat" in user request
- Optimizing for thermal properties
---
## Quick Reference
| Physics | Extractor | Unit |
|---------|-----------|------|
| Max temp | E11 | K |
| Gradient | E12 | K/mm |
| Heat flux | E13 | W/m² |
---
## Objective Patterns
### Minimize Max Temperature
\`\`\`python
from optimization_engine.extractors import extract_temperature
def objective(trial):
# ... run simulation ...
temp_result = extract_temperature(op2_file)
return temp_result['max_temperature']
\`\`\`
### Minimize Thermal Gradient
\`\`\`python
from optimization_engine.extractors import extract_thermal_gradient
def objective(trial):
# ... run simulation ...
grad_result = extract_thermal_gradient(op2_file)
return grad_result['max_gradient']
\`\`\`
---
## Configuration Example
\`\`\`json
{
"objectives": [
{
"name": "max_temperature",
"type": "minimize",
"unit": "K",
"description": "Maximum temperature in component"
}
]
}
\`\`\`
---
## Related
- **Extractors**: E11, E12, E13 in SYS_12
- **Protocol**: See OP_01 for study creation
```
---
## Troubleshooting
| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Skill not loaded | Not in context loader | Add loading rule |
| Wrong skill loaded | Ambiguous triggers | Refine conditions |
| Instructions not followed | Too vague | Make prescriptive |

# OP_01: Create Optimization Study
<!--
PROTOCOL: Create Optimization Study
LAYER: Operations
VERSION: 1.0
STATUS: Active
LAST_UPDATED: 2025-12-05
PRIVILEGE: user
LOAD_WITH: [core/study-creation-core.md]
-->
## Overview
This protocol guides you through creating a complete Atomizer optimization study from scratch. It covers gathering requirements, generating configuration files, and validating setup.
**Skill to Load**: `.claude/skills/core/study-creation-core.md`
---
## When to Use
| Trigger | Action |
|---------|--------|
| "new study", "create study" | Follow this protocol |
| "set up optimization" | Follow this protocol |
| "optimize my design" | Follow this protocol |
| User provides NX model | Assess and follow this protocol |
---
## Quick Reference
**Required Outputs**:
| File | Purpose | Location |
|------|---------|----------|
| `optimization_config.json` | Design vars, objectives, constraints | `1_setup/` |
| `run_optimization.py` | Execution script | Study root |
| `README.md` | Engineering documentation | Study root |
| `STUDY_REPORT.md` | Results template | Study root |
**Study Structure**:
```
studies/{study_name}/
├── 1_setup/
│ ├── model/ # NX files (.prt, .sim, .fem)
│ └── optimization_config.json
├── 2_results/ # Created during run
├── README.md # MANDATORY
├── STUDY_REPORT.md # MANDATORY
└── run_optimization.py
```
---
## Detailed Steps
### Step 1: Gather Requirements
**Ask the user**:
1. What are you trying to optimize? (objective)
2. What can you change? (design variables)
3. What limits must be respected? (constraints)
4. Where are your NX files?
**Example Dialog**:
```
User: "I want to optimize my bracket"
You: "What should I optimize for - minimum mass, maximum stiffness,
target frequency, or something else?"
User: "Minimize mass while keeping stress below 250 MPa"
```
### Step 2: Analyze Model (Introspection)
**MANDATORY**: When user provides NX files, run comprehensive introspection:
```python
from optimization_engine.hooks.nx_cad.model_introspection import (
introspect_part,
introspect_simulation,
introspect_op2,
introspect_study
)
# Introspect the part file to get expressions, mass, features
part_info = introspect_part("C:/path/to/model.prt")
# Introspect the simulation to get solutions, BCs, loads
sim_info = introspect_simulation("C:/path/to/model.sim")
# If OP2 exists, check what results are available
op2_info = introspect_op2("C:/path/to/results.op2")
# Or introspect entire study directory at once
study_info = introspect_study("studies/my_study/")
```
**Introspection Report Contents**:
| Source | Information Extracted |
|--------|----------------------|
| `.prt` | Expressions (count, values, types), bodies, mass, material, features |
| `.sim` | Solutions, boundary conditions, loads, materials, mesh info, output requests |
| `.op2` | Available results (displacement, stress, strain, SPC forces, etc.), subcases |
**Generate Introspection Report** at study creation:
1. Save report to `studies/{study_name}/MODEL_INTROSPECTION.md`
2. Include summary of what's available for optimization
3. List potential design variables (expressions)
4. List extractable results (from OP2)
**Key Questions Answered by Introspection**:
- What expressions exist? (potential design variables)
- What solution types? (static, modal, etc.)
- What results are available in OP2? (displacement, stress, SPC forces)
- Multi-solution required? (static + modal = set `solution_name=None`)
### Step 3: Select Protocol
Based on objectives:
| Scenario | Protocol | Sampler |
|----------|----------|---------|
| Single objective | Protocol 10 (IMSO) | TPE, CMA-ES, or GP |
| 2-3 objectives | Protocol 11 | NSGA-II |
| >50 trials, need speed | Protocol 14 | + Neural acceleration |
See [SYS_10_IMSO](../system/SYS_10_IMSO.md), [SYS_11_MULTI_OBJECTIVE](../system/SYS_11_MULTI_OBJECTIVE.md).
### Step 4: Select Extractors
Match physics to extractors from [SYS_12_EXTRACTOR_LIBRARY](../system/SYS_12_EXTRACTOR_LIBRARY.md):
| Need | Extractor ID | Function |
|------|--------------|----------|
| Max displacement | E1 | `extract_displacement()` |
| Natural frequency | E2 | `extract_frequency()` |
| Von Mises stress | E3 | `extract_solid_stress()` |
| Mass from BDF | E4 | `extract_mass_from_bdf()` |
| Mass from NX | E5 | `extract_mass_from_expression()` |
| Wavefront error | E8-E10 | Zernike extractors |
### Step 5: Generate Configuration
Create `optimization_config.json`:
```json
{
"study_name": "bracket_optimization",
"description": "Minimize bracket mass while meeting stress constraint",
"design_variables": [
{
"name": "thickness",
"type": "continuous",
"min": 2.0,
"max": 10.0,
"unit": "mm",
"description": "Wall thickness"
}
],
"objectives": [
{
"name": "mass",
"type": "minimize",
"unit": "kg",
"description": "Total bracket mass"
}
],
"constraints": [
{
"name": "max_stress",
"type": "less_than",
"value": 250.0,
"unit": "MPa",
"description": "Maximum allowable von Mises stress"
}
],
"simulation": {
"model_file": "1_setup/model/bracket.prt",
"sim_file": "1_setup/model/bracket.sim",
"solver": "nastran",
"solution_name": null
},
"optimization_settings": {
"protocol": "protocol_10_single_objective",
"sampler": "TPESampler",
"n_trials": 50
}
}
```
### Step 6: Generate run_optimization.py
```python
#!/usr/bin/env python
"""
{study_name} - Optimization Runner
Generated by Atomizer LLM
"""
import sys
from pathlib import Path
# Add optimization engine to path
sys.path.insert(0, str(Path(__file__).parent.parent.parent))
from optimization_engine.nx_solver import NXSolver
from optimization_engine.extractors import extract_displacement, extract_solid_stress
# Paths
STUDY_DIR = Path(__file__).parent
MODEL_DIR = STUDY_DIR / "1_setup" / "model"
RESULTS_DIR = STUDY_DIR / "2_results"
def objective(trial):
"""Optimization objective function."""
# Sample design variables
thickness = trial.suggest_float("thickness", 2.0, 10.0)
# Update NX model and solve
nx_solver = NXSolver(...)
result = nx_solver.run_simulation(
sim_file=MODEL_DIR / "bracket.sim",
working_dir=MODEL_DIR,
expression_updates={"thickness": thickness}
)
if not result['success']:
raise optuna.TrialPruned("Simulation failed")
# Extract results using library extractors
op2_file = result['op2_file']
stress_result = extract_solid_stress(op2_file)
max_stress = stress_result['max_von_mises']
# Check constraint
if max_stress > 250.0:
raise optuna.TrialPruned(f"Stress constraint violated: {max_stress} MPa")
# Return objective
mass = extract_mass(...)
return mass
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Run optimization
import optuna
study = optuna.create_study(direction="minimize")
study.optimize(objective, n_trials=50)
```
### Step 7: Generate Documentation
**README.md** (11 sections required):
1. Engineering Problem
2. Mathematical Formulation
3. Optimization Algorithm
4. Simulation Pipeline
5. Result Extraction Methods
6. Neural Acceleration (if applicable)
7. Study File Structure
8. Results Location
9. Quick Start
10. Configuration Reference
11. References
**STUDY_REPORT.md** (template):
```markdown
# Study Report: {study_name}
## Executive Summary
- Trials completed: _pending_
- Best objective: _pending_
- Constraint satisfaction: _pending_
## Optimization Progress
_To be filled after run_
## Best Designs Found
_To be filled after run_
## Recommendations
_To be filled after analysis_
```
### Step 8: Validate NX Model File Chain
**CRITICAL**: NX simulation files have parent-child dependencies. ALL linked files must be copied to the study folder.
**Required File Chain Check**:
```
.sim (Simulation)
└── .fem (FEM)
└── _i.prt (Idealized Part) ← OFTEN MISSING!
└── .prt (Geometry Part)
```
**Validation Steps**:
1. Open the `.sim` file in NX
2. Go to **Assemblies → Assembly Navigator** or check **Part Navigator**
3. Identify ALL child components (especially `*_i.prt` idealized parts)
4. Copy ALL linked files to `1_setup/model/`
**Common Issue**: The `_i.prt` (idealized part) is often forgotten. Without it:
- `UpdateFemodel()` runs but mesh doesn't change
- Geometry changes don't propagate to FEM
- All optimization trials produce identical results
**File Checklist**:
| File Pattern | Description | Required |
|--------------|-------------|----------|
| `*.prt` | Geometry part | ✅ Always |
| `*_i.prt` | Idealized part | ✅ If FEM uses idealization |
| `*.fem` | FEM file | ✅ Always |
| `*.sim` | Simulation file | ✅ Always |
**Introspection should report**:
- List of all parts referenced by .sim
- Warning if any referenced parts are missing from study folder
### Step 9: Final Validation Checklist
Before running:
- [ ] NX files exist in `1_setup/model/`
- [ ] **ALL child parts copied** (especially `*_i.prt`)
- [ ] Expression names match model
- [ ] Config validates (JSON schema)
- [ ] `run_optimization.py` has no syntax errors
- [ ] README.md has all 11 sections
- [ ] STUDY_REPORT.md template exists
---
## Examples
### Example 1: Simple Bracket
```
User: "Optimize my bracket.prt for minimum mass, stress < 250 MPa"
Generated config:
- 1 design variable (thickness)
- 1 objective (minimize mass)
- 1 constraint (stress < 250)
- Protocol 10, TPE sampler
- 50 trials
```
### Example 2: Multi-Objective Beam
```
User: "Minimize mass AND maximize stiffness for my beam"
Generated config:
- 2 design variables (width, height)
- 2 objectives (minimize mass, maximize stiffness)
- Protocol 11, NSGA-II sampler
- 50 trials (Pareto front)
```
### Example 3: Telescope Mirror
```
User: "Minimize wavefront error at 40deg vs 20deg reference"
Generated config:
- Multiple design variables (mount positions)
- 1 objective (minimize relative WFE)
- Zernike extractor E9
- Protocol 10
```
---
## Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---------|-------|----------|
| "Expression not found" | Name mismatch | Verify expression names in NX |
| "No feasible designs" | Constraints too tight | Relax constraint values |
| Config validation fails | Missing required field | Check JSON schema |
| Import error | Wrong path | Check sys.path setup |

cd atomizer-dashboard/frontend && npm run dev
# Open browser
http://localhost:3000
```
### Option 3: Query Database
```bash
python -c "
import optuna
study = optuna.load_study('study_name', 'sqlite:///2_results/study.db')
print(f'Trials: {len(study.trials)}')
print(f'Best value: {study.best_value}')
"
```
### Option 4: Optuna Dashboard
```bash
optuna-dashboard sqlite:///2_results/study.db
# Open http://localhost:8080
```
---
## During Execution
### What Happens Per Trial
1. **Sample parameters**: Optuna suggests design variable values
2. **Update model**: NX expressions updated via journal
3. **Solve**: NX Nastran runs FEA simulation
4. **Extract results**: Extractors read OP2 file
5. **Evaluate**: Check constraints, compute objectives
6. **Record**: Trial stored in Optuna database
### Normal Output
```
[2025-12-05 10:15:30] Trial 1 started
[2025-12-05 10:17:45] NX solve complete (135.2s)
[2025-12-05 10:17:46] Extraction complete
[2025-12-05 10:17:46] Trial 1 complete: mass=0.342 kg, stress=198.5 MPa
[2025-12-05 10:17:47] Trial 2 started
...
```
### Expected Timing
| Operation | Typical Time |
|-----------|--------------|
| NX solve | 30s - 30min |
| Extraction | <1s |
| Per trial total | 1-30 min |
| 50 trials | 1-24 hours |
---
## Handling Issues
### Trial Failed / Pruned
```
[WARNING] Trial 12 pruned: Stress constraint violated (312.5 MPa > 250 MPa)
```
**Normal behavior** - optimizer learns from failures.
### NX Session Timeout
```
[ERROR] NX session timeout after 600s
```
**Solution**: Increase timeout in config or simplify model.
### Expression Not Found
```
[ERROR] Expression 'thicknes' not found in model
```
**Solution**: Check spelling, verify expression exists in NX.
### OP2 File Missing
```
[ERROR] OP2 file not found: model.op2
```
**Solution**: Check NX solve completed. Review NX log file.
### Database Locked
```
[ERROR] Database is locked
```
**Solution**: Another process using database. Wait or kill stale process.
---
## Stopping and Resuming
### Graceful Stop
Press `Ctrl+C` once. Current trial completes, then exits.
### Force Stop
Press `Ctrl+C` twice. Immediate exit (may lose current trial).
### Resume
```bash
python run_optimization.py --resume
```
Continues from last completed trial. Same study database used.
---
## Post-Run Actions
After optimization completes:
1. **Check results**:
```bash
python -c "import optuna; s=optuna.load_study(...); print(s.best_params)"
```
2. **View in dashboard**: `http://localhost:3000`
3. **Generate report**: See [OP_04_ANALYZE_RESULTS](./OP_04_ANALYZE_RESULTS.md)
4. **Update STUDY_REPORT.md**: Fill in results template
---
## Protocol Integration
### With Protocol 10 (IMSO)
If enabled, optimization runs in two phases:
1. Characterization (10-30 trials)
2. Optimization (remaining trials)
Dashboard shows phase transitions.
### With Protocol 11 (Multi-Objective)
If 2+ objectives, uses NSGA-II. Returns Pareto front, not single best.
### With Protocol 13 (Dashboard)
Writes `optimizer_state.json` every trial for real-time updates.
### With Protocol 14 (Neural)
If `--neural` flag, uses trained surrogate for fast evaluation.
---
## Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---------|-------|----------|
| "ModuleNotFoundError" | Wrong environment | `conda activate atomizer` |
| All trials pruned | Constraints too tight | Relax constraints |
| Very slow | Model too complex | Simplify mesh, increase timeout |
| No improvement | Wrong sampler | Try different algorithm |
| "NX license error" | License unavailable | Check NX license server |

---
## Key Metrics to Monitor
### Trial Progress
- Completed trials vs target
- Completion rate (trials/hour)
- Estimated time remaining
### Objective Improvement
- Current best value
- Improvement trend
- Plateau detection
### Constraint Satisfaction
- Feasibility rate (% passing constraints)
- Most violated constraint
### For Protocol 10 (IMSO)
- Current phase (Characterization vs Optimization)
- Current strategy (TPE, GP, CMA-ES)
- Characterization confidence
### For Protocol 11 (Multi-Objective)
- Pareto front size
- Hypervolume indicator
- Spread of solutions
---
## Interpreting Results
### Healthy Optimization
```
Trial 45/50: mass=0.198 kg (best: 0.195 kg)
Feasibility rate: 78%
```
- Progress toward target
- Reasonable feasibility rate (60-90%)
- Gradual improvement
### Potential Issues
**All Trials Pruned**:
```
Trial 20 pruned: constraint violated
Trial 21 pruned: constraint violated
...
```
→ Constraints too tight. Consider relaxing.
**No Improvement**:
```
Trial 30: best=0.234 (unchanged since trial 8)
Trial 31: best=0.234 (unchanged since trial 8)
```
→ May have converged, or stuck in local minimum.
**High Failure Rate**:
```
Failed: 15/50 (30%)
```
→ Model issues. Check NX logs.
---
## Real-Time State File
If using Protocol 10, check:
```bash
cat studies/my_study/2_results/intelligent_optimizer/optimizer_state.json
```
```json
{
"timestamp": "2025-12-05T10:15:30",
"trial_number": 29,
"total_trials": 50,
"current_phase": "adaptive_optimization",
"current_strategy": "GP_UCB",
"is_multi_objective": false
}
```
---
## Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---------|-------|----------|
| Dashboard shows old data | Backend not running | Start backend |
| "No study found" | Wrong path | Check study name and path |
| Trial count not increasing | Process stopped | Check if still running |
| Dashboard not updating | Polling issue | Refresh browser |

| Pareto front | `study.best_trials` | Trade-off solutions |
| Trial history | `study.trials` | Full exploration |
| Intelligence report | `intelligent_optimizer/` | Algorithm insights |
---
## Analysis Methods
### 1. Single-Objective Results
```python
import optuna
study = optuna.load_study(
study_name='my_study',
storage='sqlite:///2_results/study.db'
)
# Best result
print(f"Best value: {study.best_value}")
print(f"Best parameters: {study.best_params}")
print(f"Best trial: #{study.best_trial.number}")
# Get full best trial details
best = study.best_trial
print(f"User attributes: {best.user_attrs}")
```
### 2. Multi-Objective Results (Pareto Front)
```python
import optuna
study = optuna.load_study(
study_name='my_study',
storage='sqlite:///2_results/study.db'
)
# All Pareto-optimal solutions
pareto_trials = study.best_trials
print(f"Pareto front size: {len(pareto_trials)}")
# Print all Pareto solutions
for trial in pareto_trials:
print(f"Trial {trial.number}: {trial.values} - {trial.params}")
# Find extremes
# Assuming objectives: [stiffness (max), mass (min)]
best_stiffness = max(pareto_trials, key=lambda t: t.values[0])
lightest = min(pareto_trials, key=lambda t: t.values[1])
print(f"Best stiffness: Trial {best_stiffness.number}")
print(f"Lightest: Trial {lightest.number}")
```
### 3. Parameter Importance
```python
import optuna
study = optuna.load_study(...)
# Parameter importance (which parameters matter most)
importance = optuna.importance.get_param_importances(study)
for param, score in importance.items():
print(f"{param}: {score:.3f}")
```
### 4. Constraint Analysis
```python
# Find feasibility rate
completed = [t for t in study.trials if t.state == optuna.trial.TrialState.COMPLETE]
pruned = [t for t in study.trials if t.state == optuna.trial.TrialState.PRUNED]
feasibility_rate = len(completed) / (len(completed) + len(pruned))
print(f"Feasibility rate: {feasibility_rate:.1%}")
# Analyze why trials were pruned
for trial in pruned[:5]: # First 5 pruned
reason = trial.user_attrs.get('pruning_reason', 'Unknown')
print(f"Trial {trial.number}: {reason}")
```
---
## Visualization
### Using Optuna Dashboard
```bash
optuna-dashboard sqlite:///2_results/study.db
# Open http://localhost:8080
```
**Available Plots**:
- Optimization history
- Parameter importance

fig.show()
# Plot Pareto front (multi-objective)
if len(study.directions) > 1:
fig = optuna.visualization.plot_pareto_front(study)
fig.show()
```
---
## Generate Reports
### Update STUDY_REPORT.md
After analysis, fill in the template:
```markdown
# Study Report: bracket_optimization
## Executive Summary
- **Trials completed**: 50
- **Best mass**: 0.195 kg
- **Best parameters**: thickness=4.2mm, width=25.8mm
- **Constraint satisfaction**: All constraints met
## Optimization Progress
- Initial best: 0.342 kg (trial 1)
- Final best: 0.195 kg (trial 38)
- Improvement: 43%
## Best Designs Found
### Design 1 (Overall Best)
| Parameter | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| thickness | 4.2 mm |
| width | 25.8 mm |
| Metric | Value | Constraint |
|--------|-------|------------|
| Mass | 0.195 kg | - |
| Max stress | 238.5 MPa | < 250 MPa ✓ |
## Engineering Recommendations
1. Recommended design: Trial 38 parameters
2. Safety margin: 4.6% on stress constraint
3. Consider manufacturing tolerance analysis
```
### Export to CSV
```python
import pandas as pd
# All trials to DataFrame
trials_data = []
for trial in study.trials:
if trial.state == optuna.trial.TrialState.COMPLETE:
row = {'trial': trial.number, 'value': trial.value}
row.update(trial.params)
trials_data.append(row)
df = pd.DataFrame(trials_data)
df.to_csv('optimization_results.csv', index=False)
```
### Export Best Design for FEA Validation
```python
# Get best parameters
best_params = study.best_params
# Format for NX expression update
for name, value in best_params.items():
print(f"{name} = {value}")
# Or save as JSON
import json
with open('best_design.json', 'w') as f:
json.dump(best_params, f, indent=2)
```
---
## Intelligence Report (Protocol 10)
If using Protocol 10, check intelligence files:
```bash
# Landscape analysis
cat 2_results/intelligent_optimizer/intelligence_report.json
# Characterization progress
cat 2_results/intelligent_optimizer/characterization_progress.json
```
**Key Insights**:
- Landscape classification (smooth/rugged, unimodal/multimodal)
- Algorithm recommendation rationale
- Parameter correlations
- Confidence metrics
---
## Validation Checklist
Before finalizing results:
- [ ] Best solution satisfies all constraints
- [ ] Results are physically reasonable
- [ ] Parameter values within manufacturing limits
- [ ] Consider re-running FEA on best design to confirm
- [ ] Document any anomalies or surprises
- [ ] Update STUDY_REPORT.md
---
## Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---------|-------|----------|
| Best value seems wrong | Constraint not enforced | Check objective function |
| No Pareto solutions | All trials failed | Check constraints |
| Unexpected best params | Local minimum | Try different starting points |
| Can't load study | Wrong path | Verify database location |

---
## Configuration
### Enable Export in Config
Add to `optimization_config.json`:
```json
{
"training_data_export": {
"enabled": true,
"export_dir": "atomizer_field_training_data/my_study",
"export_bdf": true,
"export_op2": true,
"export_fields": ["displacement", "stress"],
"include_failed": false
}
}
```
### Configuration Options
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|--------|------|---------|-------------|
| `enabled` | bool | false | Enable export |
| `export_dir` | string | - | Output directory |

| `export_op2` | bool | true | Save binary results |
| `export_fields` | list | all | Which result fields |
| `include_failed` | bool | false | Include failed trials |
---
## Export Workflow
### Step 1: Run with Export Enabled
```bash
conda activate atomizer
cd studies/my_study
python run_optimization.py --export-training
```
Or run standard optimization with config export enabled.
### Step 2: Verify Export
```bash
ls atomizer_field_training_data/my_study/
# Should see trial_0001/, trial_0002/, etc.
# Check a trial
ls atomizer_field_training_data/my_study/trial_0001/
# input/model.bdf
# output/model.op2
# metadata.json
```
### Step 3: Check Metadata
```bash
cat atomizer_field_training_data/my_study/trial_0001/metadata.json
```
```json
{
"trial_number": 1,
"design_parameters": {
"thickness": 5.2,
"width": 30.0
},
"objectives": {
"mass": 0.234,
"max_stress": 198.5
},
"constraints_satisfied": true,
"simulation_time": 145.2
}
```
### Step 4: Check Study Summary
```bash
cat atomizer_field_training_data/my_study/study_summary.json
```
```json
{
"study_name": "my_study",
"total_trials": 50,
"successful_exports": 47,
"failed_exports": 3,
"design_parameters": ["thickness", "width"],
"objectives": ["mass", "max_stress"],
"export_timestamp": "2025-12-05T15:30:00"
}
```
---
## Data Quality Checks
### Verify Sample Count
```python
from pathlib import Path
import json
export_dir = Path("atomizer_field_training_data/my_study")
trials = list(export_dir.glob("trial_*"))
print(f"Exported trials: {len(trials)}")
# Check for missing files
for trial_dir in trials:
bdf = trial_dir / "input" / "model.bdf"
op2 = trial_dir / "output" / "model.op2"
meta = trial_dir / "metadata.json"
if not all([bdf.exists(), op2.exists(), meta.exists()]):
print(f"Missing files in {trial_dir}")
```
### Check Parameter Coverage
```python
import json
import numpy as np
# Load all metadata
params = []
for trial_dir in export_dir.glob("trial_*"):
with open(trial_dir / "metadata.json") as f:
meta = json.load(f)
params.append(meta["design_parameters"])
# Check coverage
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame(params)
print(df.describe())
# Look for gaps
for col in df.columns:
print(f"{col}: min={df[col].min():.2f}, max={df[col].max():.2f}")
```
---
## Space-Filling Sampling
For best neural network training, use space-filling designs:
### Latin Hypercube Sampling
```python
from scipy.stats import qmc
# Generate space-filling samples
n_samples = 100
n_params = 4
sampler = qmc.LatinHypercube(d=n_params)
samples = sampler.random(n=n_samples)
# Scale to parameter bounds
lower = [2.0, 20.0, 5.0, 1.0]
upper = [10.0, 50.0, 15.0, 5.0]
scaled = qmc.scale(samples, lower, upper)
```
### Sobol Sequence
```python
sampler = qmc.Sobol(d=n_params)
samples = sampler.random(n=n_samples)
scaled = qmc.scale(samples, lower, upper)
```
---
## Next Steps After Export
### 1. Parse to Neural Format
```bash
cd atomizer-field
python batch_parser.py ../atomizer_field_training_data/my_study
```
### 2. Split Train/Validation
```python
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
# 80/20 split
train_trials, val_trials = train_test_split(
all_trials,
test_size=0.2,
random_state=42
)
```
### 3. Train Model
```bash
python train_parametric.py \
--train_dir ../training_data/parsed \
--val_dir ../validation_data/parsed \
--epochs 200
```
See [SYS_14_NEURAL_ACCELERATION](../system/SYS_14_NEURAL_ACCELERATION.md) for full training workflow.
---
## Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---------|-------|----------|
| No export directory | Export not enabled | Add `training_data_export` to config |
| Missing OP2 files | Solve failed | Check `include_failed: false` |
| Incomplete metadata | Extraction error | Check extractor logs |
| Low sample count | Too many failures | Relax constraints |

### 2. NX Model Setup Errors
#### "All optimization trials produce identical results"
**Cause**: Missing idealized part (`*_i.prt`) or broken file chain
**Symptoms**:
- Journal shows "FE model updated" but results don't change
- DAT files have same node coordinates with different expressions
- OP2 file timestamps update but values are identical
**Root Cause**: NX simulation files have a parent-child hierarchy:
```
.sim → .fem → _i.prt → .prt (geometry)
```
If the `_i.prt` (idealized part) is missing or not properly linked, `UpdateFemodel()` runs but the mesh doesn't regenerate because:
- FEM mesh is tied to idealized geometry, not master geometry
- Without idealized part updating, FEM has nothing new to mesh against
**Solution**:
1. **Check file chain in NX**:
- Open `.sim` file
- Go to **Part Navigator** or **Assembly Navigator**
- List ALL referenced parts
2. **Copy ALL linked files** to study folder:
```bash
# Typical file set needed:
Model.prt # Geometry
Model_fem1_i.prt # Idealized part ← OFTEN MISSING!
Model_fem1.fem # FEM file
Model_sim1.sim # Simulation file
```
3. **Verify links are intact**:
- Open model in NX after copying
- Check that updates propagate: Geometry → Idealized → FEM → Sim
4. **CRITICAL CODE FIX** (already implemented in `solve_simulation.py`):
The idealized part MUST be explicitly loaded before `UpdateFemodel()`:
```python
# Load idealized part BEFORE updating FEM
for filename in os.listdir(working_dir):
if '_i.prt' in filename.lower():
idealized_part, status = theSession.Parts.Open(path)
break
# Now UpdateFemodel() will work correctly
feModel.UpdateFemodel()
```
Without loading the `_i.prt`, NX cannot propagate geometry changes to the mesh.
**Prevention**: Always use introspection to list all parts referenced by a simulation.
---
### 3. NX/Solver Errors
#### "NX session timeout after 600s"
**Cause**: Model too complex or NX stuck
**Solution**:
1. Increase timeout in config:
```json
"simulation": {
"timeout": 1200
}
```
2. Simplify mesh if possible
3. Check NX license availability
#### "Expression 'xxx' not found in model"
**Cause**: Expression name mismatch
**Solution**:
1. Open model in NX
2. Go to Tools → Expressions
3. Verify exact expression name (case-sensitive)
4. Update config to match
#### "NX license error"
**Cause**: License server unavailable
**Solution**:
1. Check license server status
2. Wait and retry
3. Contact IT if persistent
#### "NX solve failed - check log"
**Cause**: Nastran solver error
**Solution**:
1. Find log file: `1_setup/model/*.log` or `*.f06`
2. Search for "FATAL" or "ERROR"
3. Common causes:
- Singular stiffness matrix (constraints issue)
- Bad mesh (distorted elements)
- Missing material properties
---
### 3. Extraction Errors
#### "OP2 file not found"
**Cause**: Solve didn't produce output
**Solution**:
1. Check if solve completed
2. Look for `.op2` file in model directory
3. Check NX log for solve errors
#### "No displacement data for subcase X"
**Cause**: Wrong subcase number
**Solution**:
1. Check available subcases in OP2:
```python
from pyNastran.op2.op2 import OP2
op2 = OP2()
op2.read_op2('model.op2')
print(op2.displacements.keys())
```
2. Update subcase in extractor call
#### "Element type 'xxx' not supported"
**Cause**: Extractor doesn't support element type
**Solution**:
1. Check available types in extractor
2. Common types: `cquad4`, `ctria3`, `ctetra`, `chexa`
3. May need different extractor
---
### 4. Database Errors
#### "Database is locked"
**Cause**: Another process using database
**Solution**:
1. Check for running processes:
```bash
ps aux | grep run_optimization
```
2. Kill stale process if needed
3. Wait for other optimization to finish
#### "Study 'xxx' not found"
**Cause**: Wrong study name or path
**Solution**:
1. Check exact study name in database:
```python
import optuna
storage = optuna.storages.RDBStorage('sqlite:///study.db')
print(storage.get_all_study_summaries())
```
2. Use correct name when loading
#### "IntegrityError: UNIQUE constraint failed"
**Cause**: Duplicate trial number
**Solution**:
1. Don't run multiple optimizations on same study simultaneously
2. Use `--resume` flag for continuation
---
### 5. Constraint/Feasibility Errors
#### "All trials pruned"
**Cause**: No feasible region
**Solution**:
1. Check constraint values:
```python
# In objective function, print constraint values
print(f"Stress: {stress}, limit: 250")
```
2. Relax constraints
3. Widen design variable bounds
#### "No improvement after N trials"
**Cause**: Stuck in local minimum or converged
**Solution**:
1. Check if truly converged (good result)
2. Try different starting region
3. Use different sampler
4. Increase exploration (lower `n_startup_trials`)
---
### 6. Performance Issues
#### "Trials running very slowly"
**Cause**: Complex model or inefficient extraction
**Solution**:
1. Profile time per component:
```python
import time
start = time.time()
# ... operation ...
print(f"Took: {time.time() - start:.1f}s")
```
2. Simplify mesh if NX is slow
3. Check extraction isn't re-parsing OP2 multiple times
#### "Memory error"
**Cause**: Large OP2 file or many trials
**Solution**:
1. Clear Python memory between trials
2. Don't store all results in memory
3. Use database for persistence

# SYS_10: Intelligent Multi-Strategy Optimization (IMSO)
<!--
PROTOCOL: Intelligent Multi-Strategy Optimization
LAYER: System
VERSION: 2.1
STATUS: Active
LAST_UPDATED: 2025-12-05
PRIVILEGE: user

-->
## Overview
Protocol 10 implements adaptive optimization that automatically characterizes the problem landscape and selects the best optimization algorithm. This two-phase approach combines automated landscape analysis with algorithm-specific optimization.
**Key Innovation**: Adaptive characterization phase that intelligently determines when enough exploration has been done, then transitions to the optimal algorithm.
---
## When to Use

|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| `min_trials` | 10 | 5-50 | Minimum characterization trials |
| `max_trials` | 30 | 10-100 | Maximum characterization trials |
| `confidence_threshold` | 0.85 | 0.0-1.0 | Stopping confidence level |
| `check_interval` | 5 | 1-10 | Trials between checks |
**Landscape → Algorithm Mapping**:
| Landscape Type | Primary Strategy | Fallback |
|----------------|------------------|----------|
| smooth_unimodal | GP-BO | CMA-ES |

```
---
## Core Components
### 1. Adaptive Characterization (`adaptive_characterization.py`)
**Confidence Calculation**:
```python
confidence = (
0.40 * metric_stability_score + # Are metrics converging?
0.30 * parameter_coverage_score + # Explored enough space?
0.20 * sample_adequacy_score + # Enough samples for complexity?
0.10 * landscape_clarity_score # Clear classification?
)
```
**Stopping Criteria**:
- **Minimum trials**: 10 (baseline data requirement)
- **Maximum trials**: 30 (prevent over-characterization)
- **Confidence threshold**: 85% (high confidence required)
- **Check interval**: Every 5 trials
**Adaptive Behavior**:
```python
# Simple problem (smooth, unimodal, low noise):
if smoothness > 0.6 and unimodal and noise < 0.3:
required_samples = 10 + dimensionality
# Stops at ~10-15 trials
# Complex problem (multimodal with N modes):
if multimodal and n_modes > 2:
required_samples = 10 + 5 * n_modes + 2 * dimensionality
# Continues to ~20-30 trials
```
### 2. Landscape Analyzer (`landscape_analyzer.py`)
**Metrics Computed**:
| Metric | Method | Interpretation |
|--------|--------|----------------|
| Smoothness (0-1) | Spearman correlation | >0.6: Good for CMA-ES, GP-BO |
| Multimodality | DBSCAN clustering | Detects distinct good regions |
| Correlation | Parameter-objective correlation | Identifies influential params |
| Noise (0-1) | Local consistency check | True simulation instability |
**Landscape Classifications**:
- `smooth_unimodal`: Single smooth bowl
- `smooth_multimodal`: Multiple smooth regions
- `rugged_unimodal`: Single rugged region
- `rugged_multimodal`: Multiple rugged regions
- `noisy`: High noise level
### 3. Strategy Selector (`strategy_selector.py`)
**Algorithm Characteristics**:
**GP-BO (Gaussian Process Bayesian Optimization)**:
- Best for: Smooth, expensive functions (like FEA)
- Explicit surrogate model with uncertainty quantification
- Acquisition function balances exploration/exploitation
**CMA-ES (Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy)**:
- Best for: Smooth unimodal problems
- Fast convergence to local optimum
- Adapts search distribution to landscape
**TPE (Tree-structured Parzen Estimator)**:
- Best for: Multimodal, rugged, or noisy problems
- Robust to noise and discontinuities
- Good global exploration
### 4. Intelligent Optimizer (`intelligent_optimizer.py`)
**Workflow**:
1. Create characterization study (Random/Sobol sampler)
2. Run adaptive characterization with stopping criterion
3. Analyze final landscape
4. Select optimal strategy
5. Create optimization study with recommended sampler
6. Warm-start from best characterization point
7. Run optimization
8. Generate intelligence report
---
## Configuration
Add to `optimization_config.json`:
```json
{
"intelligent_optimization": {
"enabled": true,
"characterization": {
"min_trials": 10,
"max_trials": 30,
"confidence_threshold": 0.85,
"check_interval": 5
},
"landscape_analysis": {
"min_trials_for_analysis": 10
},
"strategy_selection": {
"allow_cmaes": true,
"allow_gpbo": true,
"allow_tpe": true
}
},
"trials": {
"n_trials": 50
}
}
```
---
## Usage Example
```python
from pathlib import Path
from optimization_engine.intelligent_optimizer import IntelligentOptimizer
# Create optimizer
optimizer = IntelligentOptimizer(
study_name="my_optimization",
study_dir=Path("studies/my_study/2_results"),
config=optimization_config,
verbose=True
)
# Define design variables
design_vars = {
'parameter1': (lower_bound, upper_bound),
'parameter2': (lower_bound, upper_bound)
}
# Run Protocol 10
results = optimizer.optimize(
objective_function=my_objective,
design_variables=design_vars,
n_trials=50,
target_value=target,
tolerance=0.1
)
```
---
## Performance Benefits
**Efficiency**:
- **Simple problems**: Early stop at ~10-15 trials (33% reduction)
- **Complex problems**: Extended characterization at ~20-30 trials
- **Right algorithm**: Uses optimal strategy for landscape type
**Example Performance** (Circular Plate Frequency Tuning):
- TPE alone: ~95 trials to target
- Random search: ~150+ trials
- **Protocol 10**: ~56 trials (**41% reduction**)
---
## Intelligence Reports
Protocol 10 generates three tracking files:
| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `characterization_progress.json` | Metric evolution, confidence progression, stopping decision |
| `intelligence_report.json` | Final landscape classification, parameter correlations, strategy recommendation |
| `strategy_transitions.json` | Phase transitions, algorithm switches, performance metrics |
**Location**: `studies/{study_name}/2_results/intelligent_optimizer/`
---
## Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---------|-------|----------|
| Characterization takes too long | Complex landscape | Increase `max_trials` or accept longer characterization |
| Wrong algorithm selected | Insufficient exploration | Lower `confidence_threshold` or increase `min_trials` |
| Poor convergence | Mismatch between landscape and algorithm | Review `intelligence_report.json`, consider manual override |
| "No characterization data" | Study not using Protocol 10 | Enable `intelligent_optimization.enabled: true` |

## Version History
| Version | Date | Changes |
|---------|------|---------|
| 2.1 | 2025-11-20 | Fixed strategy selector timing, multimodality detection, added simulation validation |
| 2.0 | 2025-11-20 | Added adaptive characterization, two-study architecture |
| 1.0 | 2025-11-19 | Initial implementation |
### Version 2.1 Bug Fixes Detail
**Fix #1: Strategy Selector - Use Characterization Trial Count**
*Problem*: Strategy selector used total trial count (including pruned) instead of characterization trial count, causing wrong algorithm selection after characterization.
*Solution* (`strategy_selector.py`): Use `char_trials = landscape.get('total_trials', trials_completed)` for decisions.
**Fix #2: Improved Multimodality Detection**
*Problem*: False multimodality detected on smooth continuous surfaces (2 modes detected when problem was unimodal).
*Solution* (`landscape_analyzer.py`): Added heuristic - if only 2 modes with smoothness > 0.6 and noise < 0.2, reclassify as unimodal (smooth continuous manifold).
**Fix #3: Simulation Validation**
*Problem*: 20% pruning rate due to extreme parameters causing mesh/solver failures.
*Solution*: Created `simulation_validator.py` with:
- Hard limits (reject invalid parameters)
- Soft limits (warn about risky parameters)
- Aspect ratio checks
- Model-specific validation rules
*Impact*: Reduced pruning rate from 20% to ~5%.

# SYS_11: Multi-Objective Support
<!--
PROTOCOL: Multi-Objective Optimization Support
LAYER: System
VERSION: 1.0
STATUS: Active (MANDATORY)
LAST_UPDATED: 2025-12-05
PRIVILEGE: user
LOAD_WITH: []
-->
## Overview
**ALL** optimization engines in Atomizer **MUST** support both single-objective and multi-objective optimization without requiring code changes. This protocol ensures system robustness and prevents runtime failures when handling Pareto optimization.
**Key Requirement**: Code must work with both `study.best_trial` (single) and `study.best_trials` (multi) APIs.
---
## When to Use
| Trigger | Action |
|---------|--------|
| 2+ objectives defined in config | Use NSGA-II sampler |
| "pareto", "multi-objective" mentioned | Load this protocol |
| "tradeoff", "competing goals" | Suggest multi-objective approach |
| "minimize X AND maximize Y" | Configure as multi-objective |
---
## Quick Reference
**Single vs. Multi-Objective API**:
| Operation | Single-Objective | Multi-Objective |
|-----------|-----------------|-----------------|
| Best trial | `study.best_trial` | `study.best_trials[0]` |
| Best params | `study.best_params` | `trial.params` |
| Best value | `study.best_value` | `trial.values` (tuple) |
| Direction | `direction='minimize'` | `directions=['minimize', 'maximize']` |
| Sampler | TPE, CMA-ES, GP | NSGA-II (mandatory) |
---
## The Problem This Solves
Previously, optimization components only supported single-objective. When used with multi-objective studies:
1. Trials run successfully
2. Trials saved to database
3. **CRASH** when compiling results
- `study.best_trial` raises RuntimeError
- No tracking files generated
- Silent failures
**Root Cause**: Optuna has different APIs:
```python
# Single-Objective (works)
study.best_trial # Returns Trial object
study.best_params # Returns dict
study.best_value # Returns float
# Multi-Objective (RAISES RuntimeError)
study.best_trial # ❌ RuntimeError
study.best_params # ❌ RuntimeError
study.best_value # ❌ RuntimeError
study.best_trials # ✓ Returns LIST of Pareto-optimal trials
```
---
## Solution Pattern
### 1. Always Check Study Type
```python
is_multi_objective = len(study.directions) > 1
```
### 2. Use Conditional Access
```python
if is_multi_objective:
best_trials = study.best_trials
if best_trials:
# Select representative trial (e.g., first Pareto solution)
representative_trial = best_trials[0]
best_params = representative_trial.params
best_value = representative_trial.values # Tuple
best_trial_num = representative_trial.number
else:
best_params = {}
best_value = None
best_trial_num = None
else:
# Single-objective: safe to use standard API
best_params = study.best_params
best_value = study.best_value
best_trial_num = study.best_trial.number
```
### 3. Return Rich Metadata
Always include in results:
```python
{
'best_params': best_params,
'best_value': best_value, # float or tuple
'best_trial': best_trial_num,
'is_multi_objective': is_multi_objective,
'pareto_front_size': len(study.best_trials) if is_multi_objective else 1,
}
```
---
## Implementation Checklist
When creating or modifying any optimization component:
- [ ] **Study Creation**: Support `directions` parameter
```python
if len(objectives) > 1:
directions = [obj['type'] for obj in objectives] # ['minimize', 'maximize']
study = optuna.create_study(directions=directions, ...)
else:
study = optuna.create_study(direction='minimize', ...)
```
- [ ] **Result Compilation**: Check `len(study.directions) > 1`
- [ ] **Best Trial Access**: Use conditional logic
- [ ] **Logging**: Print Pareto front size for multi-objective
- [ ] **Reports**: Handle tuple objectives in visualization
- [ ] **Testing**: Test with BOTH single and multi-objective cases
---
## Configuration
**Multi-Objective Config Example**:
```json
{
"objectives": [
{
"name": "stiffness",
"type": "maximize",
"description": "Structural stiffness (N/mm)",
"unit": "N/mm"
},
{
"name": "mass",
"type": "minimize",
"description": "Total mass (kg)",
"unit": "kg"
}
],
"optimization_settings": {
"sampler": "NSGAIISampler",
"n_trials": 50
}
}
```
**Objective Function Return Format**:
```python
# Single-objective: return float
def objective_single(trial):
# ... compute ...
return objective_value # float
# Multi-objective: return tuple
def objective_multi(trial):
# ... compute ...
return (stiffness, mass) # tuple of floats
```
---
## Semantic Directions
Use semantic direction values - no negative tricks:
```python
# ✅ CORRECT: Semantic directions
objectives = [
{"name": "stiffness", "type": "maximize"},
{"name": "mass", "type": "minimize"}
]
# Return: (stiffness, mass) - both positive values
# ❌ WRONG: Negative trick
def objective(trial):
return (-stiffness, mass) # Don't negate to fake maximize
```
Optuna handles directions correctly when you specify `directions=['maximize', 'minimize']`.
---
## Testing Protocol
Before marking any optimization component complete:
### Test 1: Single-Objective
```python
# Config with 1 objective
directions = None # or ['minimize']
# Run optimization
# Verify: completes without errors
```
### Test 2: Multi-Objective
```python
# Config with 2+ objectives
directions = ['minimize', 'minimize']
# Run optimization
# Verify: completes without errors
# Verify: ALL tracking files generated
```
### Test 3: Verify Outputs
- `2_results/study.db` exists
- `2_results/intelligent_optimizer/` has tracking files
- `2_results/optimization_summary.json` exists
- No RuntimeError in logs
---
## NSGA-II Configuration
For multi-objective optimization, use NSGA-II:
```python
import optuna
from optuna.samplers import NSGAIISampler
sampler = NSGAIISampler(
population_size=50, # Pareto front population
mutation_prob=None, # Auto-computed
crossover_prob=0.9, # Recombination rate
swapping_prob=0.5, # Gene swapping probability
seed=42 # Reproducibility
)
study = optuna.create_study(
directions=['maximize', 'minimize'],
sampler=sampler,
study_name="multi_objective_study",
storage="sqlite:///study.db"
)
```
---
## Pareto Front Handling
### Accessing Pareto Solutions
```python
if is_multi_objective:
pareto_trials = study.best_trials
print(f"Found {len(pareto_trials)} Pareto-optimal solutions")
for trial in pareto_trials:
print(f"Trial {trial.number}: {trial.values}")
print(f" Params: {trial.params}")
```
### Selecting Representative Solution
```python
# Option 1: First Pareto solution
representative = study.best_trials[0]
# Option 2: Weighted selection
def weighted_selection(trials, weights):
best_score = float('inf')
best_trial = None
for trial in trials:
score = sum(w * v for w, v in zip(weights, trial.values))
if score < best_score:
best_score = score
best_trial = trial
return best_trial
# Option 3: Knee point (maximum distance from ideal line)
# Requires more complex computation
```
---
## Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---------|-------|----------|
| RuntimeError on `best_trial` | Multi-objective study using single API | Use conditional check pattern |
| Empty Pareto front | No feasible solutions | Check constraints, relax if needed |
| Only 1 Pareto solution | Objectives not conflicting | Verify objectives are truly competing |
| NSGA-II with single objective | Wrong config | Use TPE/CMA-ES for single-objective |

```
---
## Backend Components
### 1. Real-Time Tracking System (`realtime_tracking.py`)
**Purpose**: Write JSON state files after every trial completion.
**Integration** (in `intelligent_optimizer.py`):
```python
from optimization_engine.realtime_tracking import create_realtime_callback
# Create callback
callback = create_realtime_callback(
tracking_dir=results_dir / "intelligent_optimizer",
optimizer_ref=self,
verbose=True
)
# Register with Optuna
study.optimize(objective, n_trials=n_trials, callbacks=[callback])
```
**Data Structure** (`optimizer_state.json`):
```json
{
"timestamp": "2025-11-21T15:27:28.828930",
"trial_number": 29,
"total_trials": 50,
"current_phase": "adaptive_optimization",
"current_strategy": "GP_UCB",
"is_multi_objective": true,
"study_directions": ["maximize", "minimize"]
}
```
### 2. REST API Endpoints
**Base**: `/api/optimization/studies/{study_id}/`
| Endpoint | Method | Returns |
|----------|--------|---------|
| `/metadata` | GET | Objectives, design vars, constraints with units |
| `/optimizer-state` | GET | Current phase, strategy, progress |
| `/pareto-front` | GET | Pareto-optimal solutions (multi-objective) |
| `/history` | GET | All trial history |
| `/` | GET | List all studies |
**Unit Inference**:
```python
def _infer_objective_unit(objective: Dict) -> str:
name = objective.get("name", "").lower()
desc = objective.get("description", "").lower()
if "frequency" in name or "hz" in desc:
return "Hz"
elif "stiffness" in name or "n/mm" in desc:
return "N/mm"
elif "mass" in name or "kg" in desc:
return "kg"
# ... more patterns
```
---

---
## Configuration
**In `optimization_config.json`**:
```json
{
"dashboard_settings": {
"enabled": true,
"port": 8000,
"realtime_updates": true
}
}
```
**Study Requirements**:
- Must use Protocol 10 (IntelligentOptimizer) for optimizer state
- Must have `optimization_config.json` with objectives and design_variables
- Real-time tracking enabled automatically with Protocol 10
---
## Usage Workflow
### 1. Start Dashboard
```bash
# Terminal 1: Backend
cd atomizer-dashboard/backend
python -m uvicorn api.main:app --reload --port 8000
# Terminal 2: Frontend
cd atomizer-dashboard/frontend
npm run dev
```
### 2. Start Optimization
```bash
cd studies/my_study
conda activate atomizer
python run_optimization.py --n-trials 50
```
### 3. View Dashboard
- Open browser to `http://localhost:3000`
- Select study from dropdown
- Watch real-time updates every trial
### 4. Interact with Plots
- Toggle normalization on Pareto plot
- Click lines in parallel coordinates to select trials
- Hover for detailed trial information
---
## Performance
| Metric | Value |
|--------|-------|
| Backend endpoint latency | ~10ms |
| Frontend polling interval | 2 seconds |
| Real-time write overhead | <5ms per trial |
| Dashboard initial load | <500ms |
---
## Integration with Other Protocols
### Protocol 10 Integration
- Real-time callback integrated into `IntelligentOptimizer.optimize()`
- Tracks phase transitions (characterization → adaptive optimization)
- Reports strategy changes
### Protocol 11 Integration
- Pareto front endpoint checks `len(study.directions) > 1`
- Dashboard conditionally renders Pareto plots
- Uses Optuna's `study.best_trials` for Pareto front
---
## Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---------|-------|----------|
| "No Pareto front data yet" | Single-objective or no trials | Wait for trials, check objectives |
| OptimizerPanel shows "Not available" | Not using Protocol 10 | Enable IntelligentOptimizer |
| Units not showing | Missing unit in config | Add `unit` field or use pattern in description |
| Dashboard not updating | Backend not running | Start backend with uvicorn |
| CORS errors | Backend/frontend mismatch | Check ports, restart both |
---

- **Used By**: [OP_03_MONITOR_PROGRESS](../operations/OP_03_MONITOR_PROGRESS.md)
- **See Also**: Optuna Dashboard for alternative visualization
---
## Implementation Files
**Backend**:
- `atomizer-dashboard/backend/api/main.py` - FastAPI app
- `atomizer-dashboard/backend/api/routes/optimization.py` - Endpoints
- `optimization_engine/realtime_tracking.py` - Callback system
**Frontend**:
- `atomizer-dashboard/frontend/src/pages/Dashboard.tsx` - Main page
- `atomizer-dashboard/frontend/src/components/OptimizerPanel.tsx`
- `atomizer-dashboard/frontend/src/components/ParetoPlot.tsx`
- `atomizer-dashboard/frontend/src/components/ParallelCoordinatesPlot.tsx`
---
## Implementation Details
### Backend API Example (FastAPI)
```python
@router.get("/studies/{study_id}/pareto-front")
async def get_pareto_front(study_id: str):
"""Get Pareto-optimal solutions for multi-objective studies."""
study = optuna.load_study(study_name=study_id, storage=storage)
if len(study.directions) == 1:
return {"is_multi_objective": False}
return {
"is_multi_objective": True,
"pareto_front": [
{
"trial_number": t.number,
"values": t.values,
"params": t.params,
"user_attrs": dict(t.user_attrs)
}
for t in study.best_trials
]
}
```
### Frontend OptimizerPanel (React/TypeScript)
```typescript
export function OptimizerPanel({ studyId }: { studyId: string }) {
const [state, setState] = useState<OptimizerState | null>(null);
useEffect(() => {
const fetchState = async () => {
const res = await fetch(`/api/optimization/studies/${studyId}/optimizer-state`);
setState(await res.json());
};
fetchState();
const interval = setInterval(fetchState, 1000);
return () => clearInterval(interval);
}, [studyId]);
return (
<Card title="Optimizer Status">
<div>Phase: {state?.current_phase}</div>
<div>Strategy: {state?.current_strategy}</div>
<ProgressBar value={state?.trial_number} max={state?.total_trials} />
</Card>
);
}
```
### Callback Integration
**CRITICAL**: Every `study.optimize()` call must include the realtime callback:
```python
# In IntelligentOptimizer
self.realtime_callback = create_realtime_callback(
tracking_dir=self.tracking_dir,
optimizer_ref=self,
verbose=self.verbose
)
# Register with ALL optimize calls
self.study.optimize(
objective_function,
n_trials=check_interval,
callbacks=[self.realtime_callback] # Required for real-time updates
)
```
---
## Chart Library Options
The dashboard supports two chart libraries:
| Feature | Recharts | Plotly |
|---------|----------|--------|
| Load Speed | Fast | Slower (lazy loaded) |
| Interactivity | Basic | Advanced |
| Export | Screenshot | PNG/SVG native |
| 3D Support | No | Yes |
| Real-time Updates | Better | Good |
**Recommendation**: Use Recharts during active optimization, Plotly for post-analysis.
### Quick Start
```bash
# Both backend and frontend
python start_dashboard.py
# Or manually:
cd atomizer-dashboard/backend && python -m uvicorn main:app --port 8000
cd atomizer-dashboard/frontend && npm run dev
```
Access at: `http://localhost:3003`

# SYS_14: Neural Network Acceleration
<!--
PROTOCOL: Neural Network Surrogate Acceleration
LAYER: System
VERSION: 2.0
STATUS: Active
LAST_UPDATED: 2025-12-06
PRIVILEGE: user
LOAD_WITH: [SYS_10_IMSO, SYS_11_MULTI_OBJECTIVE]
-->
## Overview
Atomizer provides **neural network surrogate acceleration** enabling 100-1000x faster optimization by replacing expensive FEA evaluations with instant neural predictions.
**Two approaches available**:
1. **MLP Surrogate** (Simple, integrated) - 4-layer MLP trained on FEA data, runs within study
2. **GNN Field Predictor** (Advanced) - Graph neural network for full field predictions
**Key Innovation**: Train once on FEA data, then explore 5,000-50,000+ designs in the time it takes to run 50 FEA trials.
---
## When to Use
| Trigger | Action |
|---------|--------|
| >50 trials needed | Consider neural acceleration |
| "neural", "surrogate", "NN" mentioned | Load this protocol |
| "fast", "acceleration", "speed" needed | Suggest neural acceleration |
| Training data available | Enable surrogate |
---
## Quick Reference
**Performance Comparison**:
| Metric | Traditional FEA | Neural Network | Improvement |
|--------|-----------------|----------------|-------------|
| Time per evaluation | 10-30 minutes | 4.5 milliseconds | **2,000-500,000x** |
| Trials per hour | 2-6 | 800,000+ | **1000x** |
| Design exploration | ~50 designs | ~50,000 designs | **1000x** |
**Model Types**:
| Model | Purpose | Use When |
|-------|---------|----------|
| **MLP Surrogate** | Direct objective prediction | Simple studies, quick setup |
| Field Predictor GNN | Full displacement/stress fields | Need field visualization |
| Parametric Predictor GNN | Direct objective prediction | Complex geometry, need accuracy |
| Ensemble | Uncertainty quantification | Need confidence bounds |
---
## MLP Surrogate (Recommended for Quick Start)
### Overview
The MLP (Multi-Layer Perceptron) surrogate is a simple but effective neural network that predicts objectives directly from design parameters. It's integrated into the study workflow via `run_nn_optimization.py`.
### Architecture
```
Input Layer (N design variables)
Linear(N, 64) + ReLU + BatchNorm + Dropout(0.1)
Linear(64, 128) + ReLU + BatchNorm + Dropout(0.1)
Linear(128, 128) + ReLU + BatchNorm + Dropout(0.1)
Linear(128, 64) + ReLU + BatchNorm + Dropout(0.1)
Linear(64, M objectives)
```
**Parameters**: ~34,000 trainable
### Workflow Modes
#### 1. Standard Hybrid Mode (`--all`)
Run all phases sequentially:
```bash
python run_nn_optimization.py --all
```
Phases:
1. **Export**: Extract training data from existing FEA trials
2. **Train**: Train MLP surrogate (300 epochs default)
3. **NN-Optimize**: Run 1000 NN trials with NSGA-II
4. **Validate**: Validate top 10 candidates with FEA
#### 2. Hybrid Loop Mode (`--hybrid-loop`)
Iterative refinement:
```bash
python run_nn_optimization.py --hybrid-loop --iterations 5 --nn-trials 500
```
Each iteration:
1. Train/retrain surrogate from current FEA data
2. Run NN optimization
3. Validate top candidates with FEA
4. Add validated results to training set
5. Repeat until convergence (max error < 5%)
#### 3. Turbo Mode (`--turbo`) ⚡ RECOMMENDED
Aggressive single-best validation:
```bash
python run_nn_optimization.py --turbo --nn-trials 5000 --batch-size 100 --retrain-every 10
```
Strategy:
- Run NN in small batches (100 trials)
- Validate ONLY the single best candidate with FEA
- Add to training data immediately
- Retrain surrogate every N FEA validations
- Repeat until total NN budget exhausted
**Example**: 5,000 NN trials with batch=100 → 50 FEA validations in ~12 minutes
### Configuration
```json
{
"neural_acceleration": {
"enabled": true,
"min_training_points": 50,
"auto_train": true,
"epochs": 300,
"validation_split": 0.2,
"nn_trials": 1000,
"validate_top_n": 10,
"model_file": "surrogate_best.pt",
"separate_nn_database": true
}
}
```
**Important**: `separate_nn_database: true` stores NN trials in `nn_study.db` instead of `study.db` to avoid overloading the dashboard with thousands of NN-only results.
### Typical Accuracy
| Objective | Expected Error |
|-----------|----------------|
| Mass | 1-5% |
| Stress | 1-4% |
| Stiffness | 5-15% |

### Workflow Diagram
```
Traditional:
Design → NX Model → Mesh → Solve (30 min) → Results → Objective
Neural (after training):
Design → Neural Network (4.5 ms) → Results → Objective
```
---
## Neural Model Types
### 1. Field Predictor GNN
**Use Case**: When you need full field predictions (stress distribution, deformation shape).
```
Input Features (12D per node):
├── Node coordinates (x, y, z)
├── Material properties (E, nu, rho)
├── Boundary conditions (fixed/free per DOF)
└── Load information (force magnitude, direction)
GNN Layers (6 message passing):
├── MeshGraphConv (custom for FEA topology)
├── Layer normalization
├── ReLU activation
└── Dropout (0.1)
Output (per node):
├── Displacement (6 DOF: Tx, Ty, Tz, Rx, Ry, Rz)
└── Von Mises stress (1 value)
```
**Parameters**: ~718,221 trainable
### 2. Parametric Predictor GNN (Recommended)
**Use Case**: Direct optimization objective prediction (fastest option).
```
Design Parameters (ND) → Design Encoder (MLP) → GNN Backbone → Scalar Heads
Output (objectives):
├── mass (grams)
├── frequency (Hz)
├── max_displacement (mm)
└── max_stress (MPa)
```
**Parameters**: ~500,000 trainable
### 3. Ensemble Models
**Use Case**: Uncertainty quantification.
1. Train 3-5 models with different random seeds
2. At inference, run all models
3. Use mean for prediction, std for uncertainty
4. High uncertainty → trigger FEA validation
---
## Training Pipeline
### Step 1: Collect Training Data
Enable export in workflow config:
```json
{
"training_data_export": {
"enabled": true,
"export_dir": "atomizer_field_training_data/my_study"
}
}
```
Output structure:
```
atomizer_field_training_data/my_study/
├── trial_0001/
│ ├── input/model.bdf # Nastran input
│ ├── output/model.op2 # Binary results
│ └── metadata.json # Design params + objectives
├── trial_0002/
│ └── ...
└── study_summary.json
```
**Recommended**: 100-500 FEA samples for good generalization.
### Step 2: Parse to Neural Format
```bash
cd atomizer-field
python batch_parser.py ../atomizer_field_training_data/my_study
```
Creates HDF5 + JSON files per trial.
### Step 3: Train Model
**Parametric Predictor** (recommended):
```bash
python train_parametric.py \
--train_dir ../training_data/parsed \
--val_dir ../validation_data/parsed \
--epochs 200 \
--hidden_channels 128 \
--num_layers 4
```
**Field Predictor**:
```bash
python train.py \
--train_dir ../training_data/parsed \
--epochs 200 \
--model FieldPredictorGNN \
--hidden_channels 128 \
--num_layers 6 \
--physics_loss_weight 0.3
```
### Step 4: Validate
```bash
python validate.py --checkpoint runs/my_model/checkpoint_best.pt
```
Expected output:
```
Validation Results:
├── Mean Absolute Error: 2.3% (mass), 1.8% (frequency)
├── R² Score: 0.987
├── Inference Time: 4.5ms ± 0.8ms
└── Physics Violations: 0.2%
```
### Step 5: Deploy
```json
{
"neural_surrogate": {
"enabled": true,
"model_checkpoint": "atomizer-field/runs/my_model/checkpoint_best.pt",
"confidence_threshold": 0.85

- Export training data automatically
- Build landscape understanding
### Phase 2: Neural Training
- Parse collected data
- Train parametric predictor
- Validate accuracy
### Phase 3: Neural Acceleration (1000s of trials)
- Use neural network for rapid exploration
- Periodic FEA validation
- Retrain if distribution shifts
### Phase 4: FEA Refinement (10-20 trials)
- Validate top candidates with FEA
- Ensure results are physically accurate
- Generate final Pareto front
---
## Adaptive Iteration Loop
For complex optimizations, use iterative refinement:
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Iteration 1: │
│ ┌──────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ │
│ │ Initial FEA │ -> │ Train NN │ -> │ NN Search │ │
│ │ (50-100) │ │ Surrogate │ │ (1000 trials)│ │
│ └──────────────┘ └──────────────┘ └──────────────┘ │
│ │ │
│ Iteration 2+: ▼ │
│ ┌──────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ │
│ │ Validate Top │ -> │ Retrain NN │ -> │ NN Search │ │
│ │ NN with FEA │ │ with new data│ │ (1000 trials)│ │
│ └──────────────┘ └──────────────┘ └──────────────┘ │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
### Adaptive Configuration
```json
{
"adaptive_settings": {
"enabled": true,
"initial_fea_trials": 50,
"nn_trials_per_iteration": 1000,
"fea_validation_per_iteration": 5,
"max_iterations": 10,
"convergence_threshold": 0.01,
"retrain_epochs": 100
}
}
```
### Convergence Criteria
Stop when:
- No improvement for 2-3 consecutive iterations
- Reached FEA budget limit
- Objective improvement < 1% threshold
### Output Files
```
studies/my_study/3_results/
├── adaptive_state.json # Current iteration state
├── surrogate_model.pt # Trained neural network
└── training_history.json # NN training metrics
```
---
## Loss Functions
### Data Loss (MSE)
Standard prediction error:
```python
data_loss = MSE(predicted, target)
```
### Physics Loss
Enforce physical constraints:
```python
physics_loss = (
equilibrium_loss + # Force balance
boundary_loss + # BC satisfaction
compatibility_loss # Strain compatibility
)
```
### Combined Training
```python
total_loss = data_loss + 0.3 * physics_loss
```
Physics loss weight typically 0.1-0.5.
---
## Uncertainty Quantification
### Ensemble Method
```python
# Run N models
predictions = [model_i(x) for model_i in ensemble]
# Statistics
mean_prediction = np.mean(predictions)
uncertainty = np.std(predictions)
# Decision
if uncertainty > threshold:
# Use FEA instead
result = run_fea(x)
else:
result = mean_prediction
```
### Confidence Thresholds
| Uncertainty | Action |
|-------------|--------|
| < 5% | Use neural prediction |
| 5-15% | Use neural, flag for validation |
| > 15% | Fall back to FEA |
---
## Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---------|-------|----------|
| High prediction error | Insufficient training data | Collect more FEA samples |
| Out-of-distribution warnings | Design outside training range | Retrain with expanded range |
| Slow inference | Large mesh | Use parametric predictor instead |
| Physics violations | Low physics loss weight | Increase `physics_loss_weight` |

```
## NX Open API Reference
These hooks use the following NX Open APIs (verified via Siemens MCP documentation):
| Hook | NX Open API |
|------|-------------|
| Open part | `Session.Parts.OpenActiveDisplay()` |
| Close part | `Part.Close()` |
| Save part | `Part.Save()`, `Part.SaveAs()` |
| Get expressions | `Part.Expressions` collection |
| Set expression | `ExpressionCollection.Edit()` |
| Update model | `Session.UpdateManager.DoUpdate()` |
| Mass properties | `MeasureManager.NewMassProperties()` |
| Get bodies | `Part.Bodies` collection |
| Suppress feature | `Feature.Suppress()` |
| Unsuppress feature | `Feature.Unsuppress()` |
## Configuration
### NX Path
Set the NX installation path via environment variable:
```bash
# Windows
set NX_BIN_PATH=C:\Program Files\Siemens\NX2506\NXBIN
# Or in Python before importing
import os
os.environ["NX_BIN_PATH"] = r"C:\Program Files\Siemens\NX2506\NXBIN"
```
### Timeout
Journal execution has a default 2-minute timeout. For large parts, you may need to increase this in the hook source code.
## Integration with Atomizer
These hooks are designed to integrate with Atomizer's optimization workflow:
```python
# In run_optimization.py or custom extractor
from optimization_engine.hooks.nx_cad import expression_manager, geometry_query
def evaluate_design(part_path: str, params: dict) -> dict:
"""Evaluate a design point by updating NX model and extracting metrics."""
# 1. Update design parameters
result = expression_manager.set_expressions(part_path, params)
if not result["success"]:
raise RuntimeError(f"Failed to set expressions: {result['error']}")
# 2. Extract mass (objective)
result = geometry_query.get_mass_properties(part_path)
if not result["success"]:
raise RuntimeError(f"Failed to get mass: {result['error']}")
return {
"mass_kg": result["data"]["mass"],
"volume_mm3": result["data"]["volume"],
"material": result["data"]["material"]
}
```
## Testing
Run the test script to verify hooks work with your NX installation:
```bash
# Activate atomizer environment
conda activate atomizer
# Run tests with default bracket part
python -m optimization_engine.hooks.test_hooks
# Or specify a custom part
python -m optimization_engine.hooks.test_hooks "C:/path/to/your/part.prt"
```
## Troubleshooting
### "Part file not found"
- Verify the path exists and is accessible
- Use forward slashes or raw strings: `r"C:\path\to\file.prt"`
### "Failed to open part"
- Ensure NX license is available
- Check `NX_BIN_PATH` environment variable
- Verify NX version compatibility
### "Expression not found"
- Expression names are case-sensitive
- Use `get_expressions()` to list available names
### Journal execution timeout
- Large parts may need longer timeout
- Check NX is not displaying modal dialogs
## Version History
| Version | Date | Changes |
