Re: Using Elmer for simulation of ultrasonic tomography system
Hello Peter, thanks a lot for your helpful reply. Do you think it is also possible to use small wave numbers and just squeeze the solution along the time domain to scale sonic to ultrasonic? Maybe I am missing something about reflectivity and spacial resolution though... :) Basically I just need a c...

Using Elmer for simulation of ultrasonic tomography system
Hello, I have a question and hope that you can help me. We are trying to get into using automotive ultrasonic sensors for 3d environment mapping. The idea is similar to medical 3d ultrasonic devices or how bats map the environment. You send pulsed ultrasonic waves into different directions (the bat ...

Re: Heat transfer 1D example
Ok, thanks for the hint. While I was looking for a simple way to run the calculation I came across Energy2D (http://energy.concord.org/energy2d/). It is a click'n'play FEM sandbox for educational purposes. You can add bodies by drawing them. I tried it and it looks like a very handy tool for first e...

Re: Heat transfer 1D example
Found it
ElmerGUI/samples/
But does someone have other examples?

Heat transfer 1D example
Hello, I need to run a 1D heat transfer calculation to simulate the heating of a steel plate. Heat shall be transfered from a hot concrete layer through a rubber layer to the steel plate. I found an example called "HeatIntrusion1D" in the ElmerTutorials.pdf and thought I start with this. B...

Re: Python and Elmer
Hello Matthias, I just saw that Salome is available for Windows now, nice. Last time I checked, about 2012, it wasn't and my company computer runs Win7. Will take a look. About a wrapper for Elmer, is there a list of all available input variables somewhere, maybe with default values, that could be p...

Python and Elmer
Hello,
has someone ever written a Python wrapper or another Python interface for Elmer?
I was just thinking if this might be useful for me, maybe with MeshPy (tetgen)
for mesh generation and Mayavi (VTK, now working with Python 3)
for visualization.
Kind regards,
Markus

Re: Calculations on very large mesh
Hello Peter, thanks for your reply. I had a look at the Master Thesis you mentioned. But contrary to the mesh in the thesis our geometry is very long (5000 m) but at some boundaries it is only 3 m high. So I guess if we go with a very coarse mesh at the boundary we could set a mesh width of 1.5 m or...

Re: Calculations on very large mesh
Hello, thank you for the reply. My OS is Win7-64bit with 8GB of RAM. I will take a look if the crash is memory related. I know that Elmer is used to calculate glaciers, but I guess the flow speed there leads to a nice Courant number :) In my case we will use wind speeds of about 10 m/s and I am not ...
