19 Creation of a command file (2/4) With a wizard: example of the linear elastic analysis wizard 19 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

20 Creation of a command file (3/4) With the graphical command file editor (Eficas) Overview of the command file Tab to add or change a keyword Tab to name the concept Tab to add a command 20 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

21 Creation of a command file (4/4) With your favourite text editor (ex: nedit, ) 21 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

22 Data setting and command language (1/3) Command file is ALSO a python script However, we should only focus on the Code_Aster commands Command file composes of a sequence of Code_Aster specific commands Each specific command composes of keywords and defines, assigns or uses data as input Most of the commands produce "concepts" On the left side of the equal sign ( = ) The concepts generated by one command can be used as an input to the following command Command file contains no geometry description 22 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

23 Data setting and command language (2/3) An example of a command STEEL = DEFI_MATERIAU (ELAS = _F ( E= E6, NU=0.3 ) ) Name of the concept User choice Command Factor keyword Simple keyword Argument of the simple keyword An other example IMPR_RESU( RESU = _F ( RESULTAT = RESU ) ) No concept is produced Command Factor keyword Simple keyword Argument of the simple keyword 23 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

24 Data setting and command language (3/3) «reuse» keyword is used to extend an existing concept MESH = LIRE_MAILLAGE ( FORMAT = MED ) MESH = DEFI_GROUP ( reuse = MESH, MAILLAGE = MESH, CREA_GROUP_NO = _F (GROUP_MA = upper )) Reuse of the MA concept defined by LIRE_MAILLAGE Indicator of a factor keyword Since commands are sequential, a concept must be created before being used MESH = LIRE_MAILLAGE() STEEL = DEFI_MATERIAU(ELAS = _F( E = E6, NU = 0.3, ),) CHMAT = AFFE_MATERIAU(MAILLAGE=MESH, AFFE =_F(TOUT='OUI', MATER=STEEL,),) 24 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

25 EFICAS : a user-freindly interface for data setting A command file can be prepared by a text editor An EFICAS wizard prevents user from making python/syntax errors (parentheses, '=' sign, indentation...) frequently looking for command / keyword spelling and connection The «command catalog» that describes the command syntax is specific to a given code version 25 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

26 Code_Aster input and output files (1/2) Input files: Command file Meshes: Aster (.mail) Med (.med) Gibi (.mgib) Ideas (.unv) GMSH (.msh) Bases (folder): Aster base or HDF Various data in text format Output files: Aster Message file Aster Result file Output format: Med (.med) Ideas (.unv) GMSH (.msh) others Bases (folder): Aster base or HDF Various results in text format 26 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

27 Code_Aster input and output files (2/2) «message» and «result» files report the computation information General information: Code version Date and time of execution Machine and system Assigned memory Summary execution, command by command Error, warning or information messages 27 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

28 Astk GUI for computation launching (1/4) GUI Management Study Files of current study File settings ; unit, data file, result file, compression, Run settings 28 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

29 Astk GUI for computation launching (2/4) Each file has an associated "type" Command file 29 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence Mesh file Here in MED format base Folder containing files (compressed or not) allowing the recovery of the calculation Message file Verbatim report of the computation, information, alarms and errors Result file Text file containing the prints in this format File containing calculated fields Here in MED format

30 Astk GUI for computation launching (3/4) Input file Output file Compressed file Each file can be input (data), output (result), or both (case of the base) Each type of file has a "logical unit" assigned by default. The value can be changed with caution Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

31 Astk GUI for computation launching (4/4) File forma01a.comm DEBUT() MESH1 = LIRE_MAILLAGE( UNITE = 20 ) MESH2 = LIRE_MAILLAGE( FORMAT = 'MED', FIN() UNITE = 21 ) In case of multiple files of the same type (mesh, command file, results), attention to conflicts of "logical units" 31 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

32 Adding test-cases into Salome-Meca installation More than 2000 test-cases were developed to verify and validate the development Test-cases are not included into the Salome-Meca packages due to their very large package size Test-cases can be downloaded separately from aster-full packages. Then, in the aster-src archive, we have to extract the STA10.8/astest directory into the suitable directory of the Salome-Meca installation: ~/SALOME-MECA LGPL/aster/STA10.8/astest Pay attention to the release number 32 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence

33 Browsing test-cases from Astk GUI After adding test-cases to Salome-Meca installation directory, they can be imported them into Astk. Test-case description can be found in Code_Aster website (V documents) 33 - Code_Aster and Salome-Meca course material GNU FDL Licence
