Re: WhitneyAVSolver: Strange BC behaviour

Hi raback, first of all thank you for your reply and sorry for my late response. I tried a few things and made a few thoughts on your explanation and now I really think, the problem has to be something else. I didn't manage to write the vector potential A into either an ElmerPost-file or an vtu-file...

WhitneyAVSolver: Strange BC behaviour

Hi there, I've been working a lot with Elmers WhitneyAVSolver in the last year and it does a great job for what I need. But there is still one thing I really need to know because it keeps me from publishing a paper based on Elmer sim. results. Therefore I really hope somebody can help me... This is ...

Type Mismatch in DirectSolve.f90

Hi there, I think I discovered an error in the src-file DirectSolve.f90 (Elmer Rev: 6509M). At least my compiler (ifort version 14.0.1) throws an error message when I have warning mesages on. ! DirectSolve.f90: SUBROUTINE ComplexBandSolver( A,x,b, Free_fact ) ... REAL(KIND=dp) :: x(*),b(*) ... CALL ...

Re: Whitney Solver Parallel: Performance and Memory Organisation

Hi there, I tried to find out whether there are memory leaks or memory allocation errors. To do so I recompiled fem with debug flags and investigated the code with Intel Inspector , a memory profiler. Surprisingly Intel Inspector found a list of memory issues which are listed below P1 Missing alloca...

Re: Whitney Solver Parallel: Performance and Memory Organisation

Hi there, I made a little investigation and tried to find out what is going on. 1) By monitoring the system I now can tell that each core can address the whole RAM space. Still the solver succeeds only with a multi-core mpi run. In the attached logfile ( log.log ) you can see the solver output befor...

Re: Whitney Solver Parallel: Performance and Memory Organisation

Hi, thanks for your reply. I doubt that I fully understood how the memory sharing works... :roll: I have two CPUs, each of which has 8 physical cores. I always thought these 8 cores share 128/2CPUs=64GB of memory. If I look at my little test it seems, that the maximum of memory space a single core c...

MGDyn: spherical magnet with homogeneous magnetization

Hi there, I wanted to contribute with a very simple example from magnetodynamics. Problem description: A uniformly magnetized sphere lies in a cylinder filled with air. The magnetic flux density and the magnetic field strength is computed. The solution to the magnetic field strength inside the spher...

Whitney Solver Parallel: Performance and Memory Organisation

Hi there, I did a performance and convergence test with the WhitneyAVSolver. My Machine is a HPZ820 workstation with 16 CPU-cores (32 with multithreading) and a total amount of 128GB RAM. Problem description: A sphere with uniform magnetization lies in a cylinder filled with air. The magnetic flux d...

Re: Magnetostatics: demagnetizing field of a bar magnet

Hi peter, it seems that this was not the only problem. In the following code snippet starting from line 4630 in the MagnetoDynamics.src file there are 5 errors: IF ( ASSOCIATED(MFS) ) THEN BodyForce => GetBodyForce() FoundMagnetization = .FALSE. IF(ASSOCIATED(BodyForce)) THEN Magnetization(1,1:n) = ...

Re: Magnetostatics: demagnetizing field of a bar magnet

Hi, Do you think, that it is possible, that this is a bug? I thought about it: Since the B-field is derived from the vector potential A and the B-field looks really correct to me I think the WhitneyAVSolver works well. I assume, that the H-field is derived from the B-field since they are connected v...
