Thanks for the hugs :) @Peter Unfortunately, I cannot help you with the MED-files. Additionally, I cannot see any benefits. In Salome you would have to export the mesh anyway as there is no direct access to Salomes mesh data. We currently have the mesh export directly linked to ElmerGrid. So there i...

Does your script maintain the naming of the mesh and mesh groups? If so, I could incorporate your script into my Salome plugin the emulates the Elmer GUI.

Thanks,
Rainer

Guys,

here is a small demo of the plugin.

Already implemented

Using Mesh Names was the only way to get it working in Salome. We needed the direct link between the mesh groups in Salome and the corresponding element in Elmer.

New update available:
The Elmer-plugin is now able to read an already existing sif-file that was previously created with the plugin itself. Hence, it is possible to continue working on a simulation without starting all over again.

Have fun,
Rainer

So, finished the call to the Elmer Solver. If you have MS-MPI under windows, it even runs on multiple cores. However, this is Windows-only. Don't know what the correspondent call on Linux would be. Additionally, I have implemented a small window that stays on top of the Salome window and which allow...

Hi, Thanks for your feedback. The error you got is a bug. I have messed up indentation. I am currently working on a call to the ElmerSolver, so that you could start the simulation from within Salome. With this release, the bug will be corrected. Unfortunately, your suggestion regarding icons/toolbar...

Thanks for the pics :D Meanwhile, the plugin also works with Salome 8.2. The next big feature will be the start of the Elmer Solver from within Salome. That might be available mid of April. Additionally, the missing "free text" settings from the solver settings will be implemented. Have fu...

Hi, The Elmer-plugin (incl. ElmerGrid mesh export and sif-file generator) for the Salome CAD/Mesh platform has reached Beta status. A big thanks goes to Matthias (mzenker). It can be downloaded here: https://github.com/physici/ElmerSalomeModule A small demo can be found here: https://youtu.be/D2-dp4...

There is now a working Alpha-release available on github.

It offers all the core functionality in combination with Salome 7.8. You might want to try it out.

Cheers,
Rainer
