Hello, I would like to resume an aborted simulation at a specific time step. How can I adjust the simulation parameters so that the simulation starts at a frequency step of 356 Hz instead of 1 Hz.
I use the scanning function:
Simulation Type = Scanning
Time Step Intervals = 1001
Timestep Sizes = 0.5
Many Thanks. If you need further information, please get in touch.
Best regards, Alex

See elmersolver manual chapter 3

you would have had to ask for a restart file to be written in the first run, it is not done by default.

Hi,
If you are doing scan over frequency the benefit of good initial guess are next to nothing. The only place where the pseudo time (1,2,3,..) is seen is in the definition of Frequency. Why not have
and play with the parameters. No need for restart.
Btw, often in frequency scans you want to plot in log-log scale so having a geometric growth might be ideal, e.g.

Code: Select all
$t0=356.0
$df=1.0
Frequency = Variable "time"
Real MATC "df*(tx+t0)"

Thank you very much Kevin and Peter!
I first tried Mr. Raback's method. With success! My simulation is now running again. I will mention both suggestions (Kevin and Peter) in my bachelor thesis.
I am writing my bachelor thesis in the field of numerical acoustics at the TU Darmstadt. I am developing a complete workflow for simulating benchmarks for computer acoustics using Elmer.
I have already mentioned Mr. Raback several times in my draft.
Thank you both for the helpful tips. I'll get back to you if I need further assistance.
Best regards,
Alex
