Hello,
I'm using OpenFOAM 1.5-dev. I'm using the interDyMFoam solutor to run a free surface flow test case (a cube floating in water). I've modified a bit the floatingBody classes, but nothing of major importance.

I don't have problems in running the simulation in serial (one processor), but when I try to run the same case in parallel (on four processors) the simulation gets stuck though I think I've done all things correctly, using decomposePar.

I've done a bit of debugging and found out that the coode gets stuck on the solutor of the laplacian for the mesh motion in sixDofMotion.C,
more precisely in fvMesh::movePoints(motionPtr_->newPoints()).
the problem seems to be in newPoints().

In the end I found out that the problem seems to be in laplaceTetDecompositionMotionSolver.C in the line solverPerf_ = motionEqn.solve(). Unfortunately I couldn't get any 'deeper' than that in the code.

Does anybody have an idea why the simulation runs in serial and not in parallel? I mean, isn't pretty wierd that running in parallel gives problems in the solutor for the mesh motion? Any idea can be very useful!

thanks to all

Davide

Hi,

there are known issues related to mesh motion. Please read through the following threads, probably this will solve your questions:

Thank you very much, I got a bit further changing the comm blocking , but now it is giving me the following error:

temporary dellocated
From function const T& tmp<T>:perator()() const

It seems like a matrix has been deallocated. Should I manually allocate it inside the code?




thanks again

Davide

You need to re-check your source code. The error you are facing is not related to the actual mesh motion, I guess.

I'm sorry bothering you again, but I still have problems running interDyMFoam on OF 1.5-dev in parallel...

I even downloaded and compiled again the source, but the same error pops up when I try to run a case in parallel:

are you completely sure that you have OF 1.5-dev working in parallel?

Hello everyone,
I have found out how to solve the issue of the " temporary deallocated" problem in the mesh motion in parallel.

To solve the mesh motion problem we were using the amgSolver and it seems that in parallel that solver for the tetfem mesh motion has not been ported correctly.

If ,instead, we switch to the classical CG solver, the mesh motion works smoothly in parallel.

If you can, please Prof. jasak have a look at it in the new 1.6-dev...

best regards,
matteo

Hi everyone,

I have a question about using interDymFoam and dynamicMotionSolverFvMesh :

Is it possible to use it in parallel? because when I launch parallel calculation, decomposePar says :

keyword global is undefined in dictionary "/home/yhh/OFrun/0/pointDisplacement::boundaryField"

file: /home/yhh/OFrun/0/pointDisplacement::boundaryField from line 27 to line 42.

From function dictionary::subDict(const word& keyword) const
in file db/dictionary/dictionary.C at line 449.

FOAM exiting

I don't get the "global" keyword, I assume it's for parallel computing, so when I write this 'global' in my point Displacement I can't find a consistent type

Does anyone know something about it?

I use OF 1.6 and my dynamicMeshDict file looks like :

dynamicFvMesh dynamicMotionSolverFvMesh;
motionSolverLibs ("libfvMotionSolvers.so");
solver displacementLaplacian;
diffusivity uniform ;

ok my problem comes from my two cyclic patch... For one cyclic patch it's ok, but for two, it gives the error message... I tried to change the decomposition method but with no success.

Adding "global" didn't worked for me either! I've got no cyclic patches but moving patches instead so I guess the source of the problem is the same...

The problem is with the decomposition method and doesn't occur with scotch or simple. Try to decompose your case with one of the two mentioned decomposers and check your files (pointDisplacement). You'll find after the processorPatches something like this:
Code:
global
{
type      global;
}
This should solve your problem (at least it solved mine )

Cheers,

Ralph
