Hello all,
my name is Joël Cugnoni, main developer of CAELinux (alias admin on the forums). This is my personal page on CAELinux Wiki where I intend to put any kind of tips and tricks as well as some personal experience of the use / development of CAELinux.

Here is a simple procedure to upload files on the wiki:
1) create a [[Media:MyFileName]] link on your wiki page and save it
2) click the link and upload the file

An example of Salome - Code-Saturne CFD study
Here is a small example of simulation of the flow around a back facing step modelled with Salome & Code-Saturne.
(the geometry and mesh are in no way optimal... so are the results too !!)
Some addtitionnal informations:
- this archive should be decompressed in /tmp to work properly without modifications - you will need Salome 3.2.9 and Code-Saturne 1.3.1
- the Salome FlowStep.hdf contains the geometry, mesh and some post pro results
- to edit the Code-Saturne input file, open CAEKonsole, move to '/ tmp / FLOWSTEP / CASE1 / DATA' and run '. / SalomeGUI'
Salome Tutorial: Extrusion Geometry and Extrusion Meshing
This small tutorial will teach you how to create extrusion geometry based on a 2D sketch and ahow to create a 3D extrusion mesh made of prisms.
Creating a Video tutorial for CAELinux
You would like to record a video demo or a tutorial for CAELinux: here is the procedure that I have used in the official tutorials
- I use Wink which is a really great open source tool for screen recording and video editing. It runs on both Linux and Windows, so check this page for more information & downloads: [1]. In CAELinux, Wink can be installed very simply from Synaptics.
- Start Wink, create a New project => you see the video recording parameter window:
- choose full screen recording at 4 frames / sec., remember the shortcut to start / stop recording (ALT PAUSE or SHIFT PAUSE)
- record the whole video (if unsure, stop the recording, think a bit and restart. Try to move the mouse slowly and smoothly, keep a slow pace so that the recorded screen are refreshed properly, try to keep the mouse over the buttons a few seconds before you click on it.
- when finished, save the Wink project, resize it to 66% or 75% , add comments and buttons if you wish. Save to another filename.
- set the rendering options: reduce a bit the smoothing of the cursor's movement, select the output filename.
- launch the final rendering of the flash video and enjoy your work!!
Thermal analysis in Salome-Meca
Here are 3 examples of simple thermal analysis in Salome-Meca (input files, results + videos of the execution).
