<div class = "body conbody">

<p><span class = "ph">SIMULIA Tosca Structure</span> control will add the following lines (in bold)
to the <code class = "ph codeph">SMOOTH</code> command if missing:</p>

<pre class = "codeblock"><code class = "ph codeph">
SMOOTH
 ID_NAME     = &lt;some_id_name&gt;
 ...
 DATABASE    = "opt_res_database"
 OUTPUT_FILE = TOSCA_POST/&lt;smooth_id_name&gt;.ext
END_
</code></pre>

<p>The modified <code class = "ph codeph">SMOOTH</code> command is written to a file <code class = "ph codeph">&lt;jobname&gt;_
smooth.par</code> located in the <code class = "ph codeph">TOSCA_POST</code> subdirectory of the working directory. After the optimization, <span class = "ph">Tosca Structure.smooth</span> is called by <span class = "ph">SIMULIA Tosca Structure</span> control with this parameter file.
It is also possible to generate a <span class = "ph">Tosca Structure.smooth</span>
result with different parameters. This is done by changing the parameters in
the parameter file (<code class = "ph codeph">&lt;jobname&gt;.par</code>) and calling <span class = "ph">SIMULIA Tosca Structure</span> as follows:</p>

<pre class = "codeblock"><code class = "ph codeph">
tosca post -j &lt;jobname&gt; --smooth
</code></pre>

<p>A new smooth file will be generated <code class = "ph codeph">&lt;jobname&gt;_smooth(&lt;n&gt;).par</code>, where <code class = "ph codeph">&lt;n&gt;</code> is a number starting at 1. <span class = "ph">Tosca Structure.smooth</span> will be called with the modified parameters using the optimization
results from the last optimization.
Each time <span class = "ph">Tosca Structure.smooth</span> is called a new post-file is created (<code class = "ph codeph">&lt;jobname&gt;_
  smooth(&lt;n&gt;).par</code>). To avoid this behavior use overwrite (<code class = "ph codeph">--ow</code>):</p>

<pre class = "codeblock"><code class = "ph codeph">tosca post -j &lt;jobname&gt; --smooth --ow</code></pre>

<p>in which case the post-file (<code class = "ph codeph">&lt;jobname&gt;_smooth.par</code>) is overwritten for each call.</p>

<table class = "Remark" id = "table132"><tr><td class = "Remark"><span class = "run-in.important">Important:
				</span><span class = "notecontent"><p>Using <code class = "ph codeph">--ow</code> and <code class = "ph codeph">--smooth</code> together will not overwrite the job directory.</p></span></td></tr></table>
