Description :

Get information from a model object.

Command list :

b = gf_model_get(model M, 'is_complex')

Return 0 is the model is real, 1 if it is complex.

T = gf_model_get(model M, 'nbdof')

Return the total number of degrees of freedom of the model.

Gives the value of a variable or data.

V = gf_model_get(model M, 'interpolation', string expr, {mesh_fem mf | mesh_imd mimd | vec pts,  mesh m}[, int region[, int extrapolation[, int rg_source]]])

Interpolate a certain expression with respect to the mesh_fem mf or the mesh_im_data mimd or the set of points pts on mesh m. The expression has to be valid according to the high-level generic assembly language possibly including references to the variables and data of the model.

The options extrapolation and rg_source are specific to interpolations with respect to a set of points pts.

V = gf_model_get(model M, 'local_projection', mesh_im mim, string expr, mesh_fem mf[, int region])

Make an elementwise L2 projection of an expression with respect to the mesh_fem mf. This mesh_fem has to be a discontinuous one. The expression has to be valid according to the high-level generic assembly language possibly including references to the variables and data of the model.

mf = gf_model_get(model M, 'mesh fem of variable', string name)

name = gf_model_get(model M, 'mult varname Dirichlet', int ind_brick)

Gives the name of the multiplier variable for a Dirichlet brick. If the brick is not a Dirichlet condition with multiplier brick, this function has an undefined behavior

I = gf_model_get(model M, 'interval of variable', string varname)

Gives the interval of the variable varname in the linear system of the model.

V = gf_model_get(model M, 'from variables')

Return the vector of all the degrees of freedom of the model consisting of the concatenation of the variables of the model (useful to solve your problem with you own solver).

gf_model_get(model M, 'assembly'[, string option])

Assembly of the tangent system taking into account the terms from all bricks. option, if specified, should be ‘build_all’, ‘build_rhs’, ‘build_matrix’. The default is to build the whole tangent linear system (matrix and rhs). This function is useful to solve your problem with you own solver.

{nbit, converged} = gf_model_get(model M, 'solve'[, ...])

Run the standard getfem solver.

Note that you should be able to use your own solver if you want (it is possible to obtain the tangent matrix and its right hand side with the gf_model_get(model M, ‘tangent matrix’) etc.).

Various options can be specified:

• ‘noisy’ or ‘very_noisy’

the solver will display some information showing the progress (residual values etc.).

• ‘max_iter’, int NIT

set the maximum iterations numbers.

• ‘max_res’, @float RES

set the target residual value.

• ‘diverged_res’, @float RES

set the threshold value of the residual beyond which the iterative method is considered to diverge (default is 1e200).

• ‘lsolver’, string SOLVER_NAME

select explicitely the solver used for the linear systems (the default value is ‘auto’, which lets getfem choose itself). Possible values are ‘superlu’, ‘mumps’ (if supported), ‘cg/ildlt’, ‘gmres/ilu’ and ‘gmres/ilut’.

• ‘lsearch’, string LINE_SEARCH_NAME

select explicitely the line search method used for the linear systems (the default value is ‘default’). Possible values are ‘simplest’, ‘systematic’, ‘quadratic’ or ‘basic’.

Return the number of iterations, if an iterative method is used.

Note that it is possible to disable some variables (see gf_model_set(model M, ‘disable variable’) ) in order to solve the problem only with respect to a subset of variables (the disabled variables are then considered as data) for instance to replace the global Newton strategy with a fixed point one.

gf_model_get(model M, 'test tangent matrix'[, scalar EPS[, int NB[, scalar scale]]])

Test the consistency of the tangent matrix in some random positions and random directions (useful to test newly created bricks). EPS is the value of the small parameter for the finite difference computation of the derivative is the random direction (default is 1E-6). NN is the number of tests (default is 100). scale is a parameter for the random position (default is 1, 0 is an acceptable value) around the current position. Each dof of the random position is chosen in the range [current-scale, current+scale].

gf_model_get(model M, 'test tangent matrix term', string varname1, string varname2[, scalar EPS[, int NB[, scalar scale]]])

Test the consistency of a part of the tangent matrix in some random positions and random directions (useful to test newly created bricks). The increment is only made on variable varname2 and tested on the part of the residual corresponding to varname1. This means that only the term (varname1, varname2) of the tangent matrix is tested. EPS is the value of the small parameter for the finite difference computation of the derivative is the random direction (default is 1E-6). NN is the number of tests (default is 100). scale is a parameter for the random position (default is 1, 0 is an acceptable value) around the current position. Each dof of the random position is chosen in the range [current-scale, current+scale].

expr = gf_model_get(model M, 'Neumann term', string varname, int region)

Gives the assembly string corresponding to the Neumann term of the fem variable varname on region. It is deduced from the assembly string declared by the model bricks. region should be the index of a boundary region on the mesh where varname is defined. Care to call this function only after all the volumic bricks have been declared. Complains, if a brick omit to declare an assembly string.

V = gf_model_get(model M, 'compute isotropic linearized Von Mises or Tresca', string varname, string dataname_lambda, string dataname_mu, mesh_fem mf_vm[, string version])

Its length depends on the law. It could be a short vector of constant values or a vector field described on a finite element method for variable coefficients. version should be ‘Von_Mises’ or ‘Tresca’ (‘Von_Mises’ is the default).

V = gf_model_get(model M, 'compute finite strain elasticity Von Mises',  string lawname, string varname, string params, mesh_fem mf_vm[, int region])

Compute on mf_vm the Von-Mises stress of a field varname for nonlinear elasticity in 3D. lawname is the constitutive law which should be a valid name. params are the parameters law. It could be a short vector of constant values or may depend on data or variables of the model. Uses the high-level generic assembly.

Its length depends on the law. It could be a short vector of constant values or a vector field described on a finite element method for variable coefficients.

gf_model_get(model M, 'elastoplasticity next iter', mesh_im mim, string varname, string previous_dep_name, string projname, string datalambda, string datamu, string datathreshold, string datasigma)

Used with the old (obsolete) elastoplasticity brick to pass from an iteration to the next one. Compute and save the stress constraints sigma for the next iterations. ‘mim’ is the integration method to use for the computation. ‘varname’ is the main variable of the problem. ‘previous_dep_name’ represents the displacement at the previous time step. ‘projname’ is the type of projection to use. For the moment it could only be ‘Von Mises’ or ‘VM’. ‘datalambda’ and ‘datamu’ are the Lame coefficients of the material. ‘datasigma’ is a vector which will contain the new stress constraints values.

gf_model_get(model M, 'small strain elastoplasticity next iter', mesh_im mim,  string lawname, string unknowns_type [, string varnames, ...] [, string params, ...] [, string theta = '1' [, string dt = 'timestep']] [, int region = -1])

Function that allows to pass from a time step to another for the small strain plastic brick. The parameters have to be exactly the same than the one of add_small_strain_elastoplasticity_brick, so see the documentation of this function for the explanations. Basically, this brick computes the plastic strain and the plastic multiplier and stores them for the next step. Additionaly, it copies the computed displacement to the data that stores the displacement of the previous time step (typically ‘u’ to ‘Previous_u’). It has to be called before any use of compute_small_strain_elastoplasticity_Von_Mises.

This function computes the Von Mises stress field with respect to a small strain elastoplasticity term, approximated on mf_vm, and stores the result into VM. All other parameters have to be exactly the same as for add_small_strain_elastoplasticity_brick. Remember that small_strain_elastoplasticity_next_iter has to be called before any call of this function.

V = gf_model_get(model M, 'compute elastoplasticity Von Mises or Tresca', string datasigma, mesh_fem mf_vm[, string version])

Compute on mf_vm the Von-Mises or the Tresca stress of a field for plasticity and return it into the vector V. datasigma is a vector which contains the stress constraints values supported by the mesh. version should be ‘Von_Mises’ or ‘Tresca’ (‘Von_Mises’ is the default).

Function that allows to pass from a time step to another for the finite strain plastic brick. The parameters have to be exactly the same than the one of add_finite_strain_elastoplasticity_brick, so see the documentation of this function for the explanations. Basically, this brick computes the plastic strain and the plastic multiplier and stores them for the next step. For the Simo-Miehe law which is currently the only one implemented, this function updates the state variables defined in the last two entries of varnames, and resets the plastic multiplier field given as the second entry of varnames.
