Salome wrong body in Elmer

Post by akirahinoshiro »

Hello,

I have a problem with Salome exporting different bodies to Elmer.
Could someone help me?
The attached file is my Salome study.

PS: by the way why is .hdf not allowed for upload?

have you got your solution yet? i am also trying to learn about the export of files from Salome to ElmerGUI.
there are some posts regarding the export of .unv file format to ElmerGUI. maybe they could be helpful for both of us.

hi,
For Elmer software to recognize different bodies, some steps such as partitioning, exploding, creating groups, creating mesh groups should be carried out in Salome software.
The following posts can be helpful for these topics.
Post 1: For multiple bodies in 3D

(Yes NickR7, i also used this same tutorial to learn about the required steps).

Post 2: The concept explained in Post 1 has been discussed for 2D Geometry

No I did not get the solution but I gave up with Salome. Now I am only using Comsol and GMSH for the mesh.

Hi akirahinoshiro,
i cannot not view your geometry file in Salome 5.1.3. i could just see the procedure menu in the left side of it and when i try to clicke them it does not proceed to show the geometry.
i have one question.
I suppose your geometry is in 3D. Did you explode your individual partitions into faces before grouping them?
there are some tutorials on CAELINUX (everything is shown step by step) about constructing geometry in Salome.

The file was created with Salome 7 so I think this is the problem you cannot open the file.
