Design and workflows

Design tools estimate useful parameters before a propagation. Offline optics and compressors analyse or modify its output. Scans then repeat a calculation over a controlled set of parameters. These chapters explain the workflows and their assumptions; the examples show them in context.

• Design tools: soliton numbers and dispersive-wave phase matching
• Offline optics and compression
• Coupling simulations
• Parameter scans
• Interactive use: the session namespace
• Noteworthy differences from Luna
