Introduction and theory

In this case we'll use Salomé, ASTK and Code_Aster to load and combine several separate mesh files into one big mesh and solve for an applied load. Then separate the mesh again, now containing the calculated fields.


The reasons for this approach can be many, such as Salomé running out of available memory, operations take exceedingly long to complete because the whole mesh has to be displayed/updated etc., or sometimes it's just more practical to work on one part of an assembly instead of the full assembly.

In Salomés geometry module the full assembly is manipulated in different ways, but each of the parts are meshed and exported separately.

A section of the assembly below, is what we'll be working with.

Work flow

To accomplish this feat using Salomé, ASTK and Code_Aster, a few steps must be completed.

  • Decide which surfaces of the parts that will be 'glued' together and assign mesh groups accordingly
  • Assign unit numbers in ASTK
  • Tell Code_Aster which mesh files to read using unit numbers and tell it which surfaces should be glued together.
  • Calculate the results, then print results to each separate mesh


Below in the table the different parts that go into the assembly can be seen.

Assignment of groups in Salomé

You should be familiar with assigning groups, meshing and exporting files in Salomé, so I will not go through it here. Consult the .hdf file I've attached at the bottom of the page.

note: I have used Salomé 5.1.5 to generate the mesh, so the .hdf might not be backwards compatible. To recreate the mesh, use the included .brep files, the diagram below, and use 'automatic tetrahedralization' with a average/local size of 3. <br\>

ASTK setup

Each exported mesh file is assigned a unique unit number in ASTK so Code_Aster can recognize them during parsing of the .comm file.

<br\> Claws assm astk.png <br\>

  • Assigning the mesh files in ASTK
    • mmed for mesh file
      • local file
        • Name of file on disk
          • LU: unique number correspondent to a number in the .comm file
            • D for Data

<br\>

Code_Aster setup

The way Code_Aster connects different meshes, is by using the LIAISON_MAIL command (see U4.44.01 section 4.14).

A 3D volume group is connected to a 2D face group using a 'parent/child' relationship called GROUP_MA_MAIT and GROUP_MA_ESCL - this explains why the parts in the group diagram (in the Salomé paragraph) are assigned groups called name_f for face and name_v for volume.

Heres a diagram of the boundary conditions - They will be explained further in the .comm file.
