Elmer Discussion Forum

Haven't heard of Salomé before. So I checked the projects website and found: What can you do with SALOME? Create/modify, import/export (IGES, STEP, BREP), repair/clean CAD models Mesh CAD models, edit mesh, check mesh quality, import/export mesh (MED, UNV, DAT, STL) Handle physical properties and qu...

I'd suggest a slightly more verbose format: Square brackets are quite widespread to indicate units of measurement. Hopefully, qt can render the centered dot.

Any thoughts?

It might be necessary to decide somehow which way to adopt - I would opt for the second possibility. I'd say, the name label would be appropriate. The tool tips are well hidden. I for one didn't know about [shift F1] in the first place. SI units tend to be quite dense. So the dialogs don't get over...

Here is the log cmake produced for my build of Elmer on current Debian testing. I highlighted the two warnings it contains. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Checking whether GFortran version >= 4.8 -- yes A library with BLAS API found.

I find it bothersome checking what units I have to use by going back and forth between forums, manuals, and other literature. +1 from me. The GUI should explicitly give units. While it may be theoretically possible to switch to some alternative units, the application is married to the SI via the nu...

Here is a report of an effort to build elmer on a machine running current Debian testing, akka "stretch". I used the messages presented by cmake-gui to guide me which packages to install. Turns out, libvtk as offered by stretch leads to build failures because it is based on QT5 but elmer r...

I just did a fresh build on Debian testing (stretch). The *.ui files are still located in the folder Application/forms. But cmake of ElmerGUI did not need the symlinks anymore. However, ElmerGUItester still requires a fix: ln -s ../elmerfem/ElmerGUItester/forms/mainform.ui ../elmerfem/ElmerGUItester...

I probably don't see this because my elmer build takes mepis precompiled from the Debian distribution. Maybe, this provides a way to work around the bug: Compile mepis separately from source directly pulled http://glaros.dtc.umn.edu/gkhome/metis/metis/download .

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "OCE" with any of the following names: OCEConfig.cmake oce-config.cmake (...) Anyone has an idea how to fix this error? I too had this error. It went away after I installed the package liboce-foundation-dev . My desktop runs Debian/J...

Hi Kai, Did you succeed in installing OpenMP, OCC along with the ElmerGUI? Yes. I got cmake to compile elmer with all optional components included except for two. The two exceptions are "WITH_TRILINOS" and "WITH_MATC". Matc had the build problems mentioned above. And trilinos is...
