Switching from Dakota 5.x to Dakota 6.x

Since the release of Dakota 6.0, few modifications have to be made to the input file in order to run cases made with Dakota 5.x.

Make the following modifications to the input file (dakota_of.in in the Blunt Body case):

  • change "strategy" (first specification block) with "environment" ;
  • in the same block, remove the "single_method" line ;
  • remove commas in specification blocks 4 and 5: "variables," has to be changed to "variables"; "interface," to "interface".

This simple but necessary modifications should get the simulation running in Dakota 6.x.
