Hi Guys,
I am currently trying to couple Elmer with a Discrete dislocation dynamic software.
It will imply the transfer of information (surface nodes coordinates, displacement fields and stresses) form one code to the other. I have checked in the manuals of Elmer and found some options to write a user defined function/subroutine that may be the key to solve my problems but actually I don't know how to proceed in the case of getting and writing the variables I need.
There is any way that I can get/set at each time step nodal information like stress and displacements fields using Elmer's linear elastics Solver?
I have seen some examples of getting temperature at the nodes but not the stress.
I will appreciate any advice/help from you on how to proceed in this case and hope to not take much of your time.
With my best regards,
Javier

Re: Coupling Elmer and DDD
I believe Displacement is
Displacement 1, Displacement 2, Displacement 3
Principal Strain is
Principal Strain 1, etc.
Principal Stress 1, etc.
I think normal stress is;
Stress 1, Stress 2, Stress 3
See Part IX of Elmers Model Manual
Displacement 1, Displacement 2, Displacement 3
Principal Strain is
Principal Strain 1, etc.
Principal Stress 1, etc.

Hi, you typically need to request "calculate stresses". Then you may operate with the stress as any other field variable. -Peter
