Various Scripts

add.m

• add FXXYYY
• adds already-prepared runs

aeroload.m

• outputs forces from a run, rather than coefficients

arcNums.m

• uploads run numbers to SharePoint

arcPeri.m

• uploads run Periview files to SharePoint

arcRuns.m

• uploads run folder to SharePoint

comp.m

• comp FXXYYYY FZZ####
• similar to compareRuns.m, but for two runs

compareRuns.m

• compares any number of runs through several parameters, at both part and vehicle level

cq.m

• cq
• clears the active queue

getSharePointDir.m

• returns user SharePoint directory

makeRun.m

• generates run files from baseline run

mq.m

• mq
• displays mesh queue

q.m

• q
• displays solve and mesh queue

runMeshQ.m

• runs mesh queue

runQ.m

• runs queue with the runs in the queue
• runs can still be added to queue once it is initialized

status.m

• status

• continuously displays solve and mesh queue
• discontinued by hitting ctrl+c(this command is true for MATLAB in general)
• automatically run when from runQ.m command
