Re: Trying to simulate a potting process

Rich,
truly thank you very much for this pointer! I managed to build SPlisHSPlasH on my machine and played with a few examples - I think that's just what I need. Appreciate your help on this!
Greetings, Thomas.

Re: Trying to simulate a potting process

Hello Peter, thank you for checking on this and leaving your assessment. Honestly, as I am unfamiliar with many of the terms you used, I will probably not follow this further... the chunk to bite off is just too large. I know at least one package that contains solvers for this: Autodesk Moldflow. Bu...

Trying to simulate a potting process

Hello all, again I am trying to stretch my limits with Elmer, but this time I am not even sure if it is at all possible what I'd like to simulate. I need to model a fill study of a potting process, where a cavity around a detailed PCB has to be filled. So it would have to be observable, how the pott...

Re: Save Scalars: mixed up result file in parallel run

Hello, Peter, Rich, thank you for your quick reply. For the phenomenon of the solver orders in the menu, the savescalars.xml is actually in the edf folder. I normally move the files when I need the solver the first time for some simulation, before it is just memory and speed invest... But for some r...

Save Scalars: mixed up result file in parallel run - SOLVED

Hello alltogether, currently I am trying to use the SaveScalars solver to output some temperature data on a very simple transient model that I made for a test case. Once I know the different things to watch out for, I'll enlarge it to the real task I am after :-) However, right now I am stuck with t...

Re: Run Control: new outer loop do optimization, scanning etc.

Good evening, Peter, and thank you for your reply that I am also late on commenting (for some reason, the board software did choose not to notify me of your post). I just returned to read your initial writing once more in search for a way to go, when I realized there is an answer following my post. ...

Re: Run Control: new outer loop do optimization, scanning etc.

Dear Peter, thank you very much for this news note that I just came about to see (over one year later - my bad) because I also searched for optimization means within Elmer. I currently work on a case to match a transient simulation model to real-world time series temperature data by changing some of...

Re: Compiling ElmerFEM from source on a Raspberry 4B

Good afternoon, Thank you Kevin for checking this, even on a Sunday - appreciate this! In the meantime, after sleeping over this issue, I got a creeping thought in my mind that it might be linked to the armhf architecture, that I used in the Ubuntu kernel. I setup a new SD card with Ubuntu with arm6...
