Post Processing APIs in Elmer

Post by vandy_elmer »

Hi,
I was wondering if Elmer provides any APIs (C++, python, or other languages)
that would allow me to use to write a program or script to extract max/min
stress, strain, displacement results, generate png/jpeg figures of stress
gradient of analysis outputs in an automated fashion. ABAQUS
provides C++ and python APIs to do that so does something similar exist for Elmer. If there are no APIs for Elmer, is
there another tool which can read Elmer analysis output files and provide some APIs for me to find max stress/strain, displacement, save gradient figures to .png/jpeg/svg.

Thanks.

Hi Di

There are specific Solvers for outputting stuff such as SaveScalars and ResultOutputSolve. If that is not enough you can make a tailored solver for your own postprocessing. There is no particular postprocessing API, any solver has access to all data.
