battery_plot_mruns.py

This script makes a plot of the state of charge (SoC) of all ambulances for multiple runs. Figure 4 of the paper by Dieleman and Jagtenberg was generated with this script.

Running battery_plot_mruns.py

You can run the script by using the command line or an IDE such as Spyder. To run the script on the command line, first move to your local ELASPY folder and then run the following:

python elaspy/advanced_plotting/battery_plot_mruns.py

or, depending on your Python installation:

python3 elaspy/advanced_plotting/battery_plot_mruns.py

If you use an IDE, you can simply open the file and press “Run file”.

Input

The script requires several data sets and parameters to work. The ambulance dataframe that is saved according to the variable SIMULATION_AMBULANCE_OUTPUT_FILE_NAME of multiple runs is used. The parameters of the script are explained in the API.

Output

The output, if SAVE_OUTPUT=True, consists of the plot (named according to PLOT_NAME) and a text (.txt) file that contains the used parameters (named according to RUN_PARAMETERS_FILE_NAME). If SAVE_OUTPUT=False, then the plot is provided, but not saved.
