Antares Simulator Hybrid studies
This page explains how to configure and run a hybrid study i.e. a study combining GEMS components and Antares Simulator's Legacy Components. In a hybrid study, the GEMS files are integrated into a Antares Simulator study's directory structure, allowing Antares Simulator to incorporate GEMS components.
Definition
A hybrid study is essentially a Antares Simulator study that includes additional GEMS input data (in the input/ folder). The Antares Simulator executable (antares-solver) is able to run such a simulation, although the input directory contains GEMS-specific files (such as system, model libraries and data-series) describing GEMS components.
In this hybrid mode, the file parameter.yml is not used: if it exists, it will be ignored. Instead, the study relies on the Antares Simulator simulation settings. In summary, the hybrid study's input directory merges the modeler files with the typical Antares files, and the Antares solver's built-in GEMS interpreter handles the GEMS components during the simulation.
