Hi Siva,
read the following instructions:
****************************************************************************
**
TITLE: Starting BLAST the first time without using SA
Purpose: This app note will show a simple startup script that
can be used when the user is starting BLAST for
the first time on a design.
Sources of reference material in the documentation:
1. BLAST System Reference Manual page 14-60
Description: This file can be modified to define the user's own design and
file names in place of "exclock" and "top". Execute the following commands
to start up and read this batch file. This will load the design and create
a .stm file. Once you have created the .stm file for your design, start
blast with a simple command of (blast exclock).
blast exclock -no_sa
File > Batch File start.cmd
File > Save
========================================
# create the design name "exclock"
design create exclock
# define the root module of the design
# use design name for flattened designs.
sv /project/root_design exclock
# define block within the design "top"
block new exclock top
# define root block of the design "top"
sv -design exclock /design/root_block top
# define netlist for block
sv -block exclock top /file/net exclock.pin
# define model file for block
sv -block exclock top /file/mod exclock.mod
# use no hierarchial delimiters for flattened design
sv /project/hdelim ""
# define clock reference file
sv /file/ref exclock.ref
****************************************************************************

To generate *.lib you can hand-write it or use tools like FORTE's Timing
Designer.
Sorry, nothing to say about Padsx.
If you have some problems, feel free to contact me.
