Introduction

The ModelRisk Results Viewer is a free stand-alone application for a person ('the reviewer') needing to review and/or make decisions based on results generated by a ModelRisk simulation. ModelRisk simulation results are stored by a ModelRisk license holder ('the modeler') in files with a .vmrs extension. The file includes any graphs and settings that the modeler has created. The ModelRisk Results Viewer can be used to:

• Open and review any ModelRisk results file (.vmrs extension);
• Edit and interrogate any of the graphs created by the modeler. For example, the reviewer might wish to know the probability of exceeding a specific target value;
• Edit any of the existing graphs and tables;
• Create new graphs and tables in new sheets (tabs)
• Save any changes to the report in a new file;
• Export selected graphs and tables to a spreadsheet. Graphs are produced in bitmap format and can be copied into other documents

Cumulative plots to show the probability of being above specific values

Various spider plots to analyze sensitivity of the model output to key input variables

Various tornado plots to analyze sensitivity of the model output to key input variables

Scatter plots to analyze detail relationships between variables.

Trend plots to display input or output trends over time with uncertainty

Box plots that give graphical summaries of input and/or output statistics

Histogram and cumulative plots can be used to plot several variables together

Statistical summary of selected input and/or output variables

Table of the actual values for inputs and outputs generated in each sample of the model run

Frequently asked questions

No, the simulation data are encrypted within the file and cannot be changed. The ModelRisk Results Viewer only allows changes to how these results are presented and evaluated. This ensures that results cannot be tampered with.

Yes, there is a built-in help file which is accessed by clicking the help icon in the ribbon. It describes each of the graphical and tabular results that the ModelRisk Results Viewer produces and how to interpret them.

No, you do not need to have Excel installed to review the results. However, you will need Excel if you wish to export graphs or tables.

ModelRisk Results Viewer is provided free of charge, so we are unfortunately not able to offer technical support for this product directly. However, the registered ModelRisk user ('modeler') who gave you the simulation results can get technical support for you provided their maintenance plan is up-to-date.

Vose Software can provide consultancy and training if you wish to learn more about risk analysis and how to use it to make better decisions. Our consultants and trainers are seasoned risk analysts with experience in a wide range of fields. We can provide online training (e.g. Webex or GoToMeeting) and on-site training around the world.

Yes, the ModelRisk Results Viewer works with simulation results generated by models using all editions of ModelRisk (Standard, Professional and Industrial).

Yes, you may distribute the ModelRisk Results Viewer without restriction.

Yes, the ModelRisk Results Viewer can read simulation results from all previous versions of ModelRisk. If the results were generated by a version of ModelRisk created later than the ModelRisk Results Viewer being used you will be prompted to download an update.
