Hi every one,

How can I run one of oofem tests?
I found https://mech.fsv.cvut.cz/svn/mupif/trun … les/README
But I don't find python directory mentioned in the link!
Just to be more specific, I would like to be able to run one specific test and visualize the results.
Would someone help me with this please?

Thanks
Souren

Dear Souren,

these four tests don't pass, you can read the discussion about that here http://www.oofem.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1727
To visualise your results I would recommend paraview, but there are several exportmodules which can be used to export your results in different formats, viz. http://www.oofem.org/resources/doc/oofe … ode40.html
There is possibility to use salome (http://www.salome-platform.org/) as a preprocessor, but then you need to use and unv2oofem http://www.oofem.org/wiki/doku.php?id=u … :unv2oofem to get the oofem input.

Thanks for your response,

As you can see I am quite new to this code and just trying to understand how to work with it.
I actually already worked with salome and also paraview, so that wouldn't be a problem.
But I have some small questions:
1. When I installed the code using  http://www.oofem.org/wiki/doku.php?id=installation  I didn't use any of the build options because I couldn't really get their significance! How should I use them? I had a look at the OOFEM documents but I couldn't really find the answer to my question!

2. I am quite interested in using XFEM features of OOFEM for crack propagation modeling, is there any test among OOFEM tests that I can run and visualize to get started with OOFEM?

Thanks again for your time

Hi everyone,

I am becoming a new oofem user, I just installed oofem on my system, ubuntu 15.10 64bit,
went through the steps mentioned on the installation page as follows:

First add the folowing lines to your sources.list:

  deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/eudoxos/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
  deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/eudoxos/ppa/ubuntu karmic main

Second: tell ubuntu to trust this PPA (Obvious: you must make sure you trust the PPA owner before installing their software…)

  sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 92DE8183

Third: update and install:

  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install oofem oofem-mpi oofem-oofeg oofem-doc


Quick Installation

You will need the build-essential (to build) and the xorg-dev (for use of oofeg) packages. On a Ubuntu/Debian system run:

  sudo apt-get install build-essential xorg-dev

Create a build directory

  mkdir -p ~/build/debug/

Configure oofem target

  cd ~/build/debug
  cmake ~/oofem.git/

Run make to compile the required targets as

  cd ~/build/debug; make

The oofem executable will be created in ~/build/debug directory

Important notice: Use the debug build while you get everything to work, but make sure to compile an optimized version for running serious simulations (CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release). The optimized version will be orders of magnitudes faster than the Debug build.
  mkdir -p ~/build/release/
  cd ~/build/release/
  cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ~/oofem.git/
  make

After this step I didn't run any build option commands and I directly ran "ctest" and I got the following errors:

The following tests FAILED:
    231 - test_tmpatch46.in (Failed)
    254 - test_MPS_block02_tmsm.in (Failed)
    256 - test_MPS_block01_tmsm.in (Failed)
    271 - benchmark_tr2shell7XFEM_CZ.in (Failed)
Errors while running CTest

Most of tests were run successfully and just the above 4 tests failed.
would you please help me understand what the problem is?

I would also like to know how to run a simple example and visualize my results.
What tool should I use for pre-processing? how to run it and how to visualize the results?
Is there any comprehensive manual from which I can get my hands on the usage of the code please?

Thanks a bunch
Souren
