Topic: unv2oofem

Hi Borek,

I tried to run the example of steelplasticity with buckling in wiki. The unv2oofem does not work with it anymore. The problem is saying that:

Parsing ctrl file ....
    Found properties for group(s): ['loading_face']
        Group of elements "Loading_top" has properties: boundaryLoads 2 2
OOFEM element boundaryLoads not found in OOFEM's list of eligible elements

Could you please check it? Thanks,

Xuejian

Re: unv2oofem

I think its just the ctrl file that needs to be updated to use "bloadnum" instead of "boundaryLoads", but I'm not sure.
Also, there *is* a premade input file that works, so unless you are planning on importing from UNV later on, there is no use for this one.


On a related note, checking the produced VTU-files in paraview shows a strange picture, everything lies on a diagonal in the y-z plane.
To be more precise, it looks like the proper y-coordinate has been replaced by the z-coordinate, (thus a diagonal line in the y-z plane).
z and x coordinates look correct. Displacements also seem correct (although its admittedly hard to tell with the geometry all messed up to begin with).

I'll look at the paraview export to see if I messed up somewhere.

Well, that bug was easy to find. It was only active when compiling with the actual VTK-libraries, and now its corrected.

Dear Xuejian,
I updated a fixed version of the zip and ctrl file. Instead of "boundaryLoads", the keyword has changed to bLoadNum.
