Scope results over custom time domains#
The Result class, which are instances
created by the Model, give
access to helpers for requesting results on specific mesh and time scopings.
With these helpers, working on a temporal subset of the
model is straightforward. In this example, different ways to choose the temporal subset to
evaluate a result are exposed. This example can be extended to frequency subsets.

and connect a given time_scoping accordingly to the cumulative indexes can be useful.
