Learning to use PHASTA involves a lot of non-trivial steps, each that have a significant learning curve. Videos are a natural way to learn but we have accumulated a lot of them and this makes it daunting to start. The purpose of this page is to organize and index that knowledge and make it more enabling to self-paced learning.

Here are notes going over the contents of the different tutorial videos with the goal of helping others find tutorial videos of use to them.

See Meta for details on adding new entries.

Notes

Create structured meshes using Matlab script created by Riccardo and other tools, such as the matched node element reader utility. Matlab script defines the "values" of the mesh to be generated, while matchedNodeElmReader actually generates the mesh files themselves.

Note that matchedNodeElmReader may also be referred to/named as streamMds.

Result of Matlab script is 5 different files:

*.crd Coordinates of each vertex
*.class Classification with respect to the geometrical model (a box in this case)
*.cnn Connectivity of each element
*.fathers2D 2D grid of the fathers, Used in spanwise averaging
*.match "vertex matching flag" for periodic boundary conditions

matchedNodeElmReader then takes these files as input and generates two directories: outMesh and rendered. The rendered is a way to view the mesh in Paraview.

The code is run with: 

mpirun -np 1 matchedNodeElmReader *.cnn *.crd *.match *.class *.fathers2D output_model.dmg outputMeshDir/

where in the tutorial matchedNodeElmReader is located at /users/rbalin/matchedReader/build-addNfathDebug/test/matchedNodeElnReader. The mesh files (SCOREC Mesh, *.smb) are then placed inside the output mesh directory. A usage message can be shown by running the executable without any arguments.

This command can also be run with multiple MPI processes. Note that this process does "preliminary" partitioning, so the number of mpi processes used is the number of *.smd. The nodes are stored in z, y, x major order (which is generally spanwise, wall-normal, streamwise order), so Riccardo recommends that the number of mpi processes be evenly divisible by the number of streamwise nodes such that these partitions are not divided unevenly.

Once this is done, the *.smb and *.dmg files are fed to Chef for further partitioning and processing.
