MADYMO Coupling Manual Release 7.5
• Start 4 MADYMO processes
• Start 28 PARTNER processes
• Use MPI (instead of old, direct coupling), and more specifically: use MADCL for HP-MPI
• Use the hosts listed in "myhostfile"
• Pass "<madymo args>" to MADYMO as extra arguments
• Pass "<partner args>" to PARTNER as extra arguments
• Use "<xml deck>" and "<partner deck>" as input files.
8.2.8 Restart
To perform restart jobs, first launch partner programs as usual. Next, launch a second job
with restart command line options. As an example, a madymo_cpl command to run a restart
simulation with LS-DYNA could look like this:
madymo_cpl -febin lsdyna_cpl.sh -coupling socket input.xml input.k
madymo_cpl -febin lsdyna_cpl.sh -coupling socket \
-madargs -rst input.rst -- -feargs r=d3dump01 -- input.restart.xml input.restart.k
Now madymo_cpl will first:
• Use lsdyna_cpl.sh as LS-DYNA wrapper script.
• Use socket version of MADCL.
• Use input.xml and input.k as input files.
and then in the next run:
• Use lsdyna_cpl.sh as LS-DYNA wrapper script.
• Use socket version of MADCL.
• Pass "-rst input.rst" to MADYMO as extra arguments
• Pass "r=d3dump01" to LS-DYNA as extra arguments
• Use input.restart.xml and input.restart.k as input files.
8.2.9 Example wrapper scripts
This section gives example wrapper scripts for the PARTNER codes. These scripts are also
available in the MADYMO distribution.
