Provide a (default) constructor for the SystemCoupling class for non-cosimulation mode.

This is a default constructor that will initialize the participant library in standalone (non-cosimulation) mode.

When running in parallel MPI environment, the parallel communication within the participant library will use MPI_COMM_WORLD communicator.

◆ SystemCoupling() [2/6]

sysc::SystemCoupling::SystemCoupling ( std::size_t mpiCommunicator )

Provide a constructor for the SystemCoupling class for non-cosimulation mode with a custom MPI communicator.

Parameters

[in] mpiCommunicator MPI communicator cast to std::size_t.

This will initialize the participant library in standalone mode and will use the provided MPI communicator for all parallel communication.

◆ SystemCoupling() [3/6]

sysc::SystemCoupling::SystemCoupling ( const ParticipantInfo & participantInfo )

Provide a constructor for the SystemCoupling class with a custom struct representing the default input parameters.

Parameters

◆ SystemCoupling() [4/6]

sysc::SystemCoupling::SystemCoupling	(	const ParticipantInfo &	participantInfo,
		std::size_t	mpiCommunicator
	)

Provide a constructor for the SystemCoupling class with an mpiCommunicator object set to non default.

		const std::string &	buildInformation = `"Unknown"`
	)

Provide a constructor for the SystemCoupling class for cosimulation mode.

Initializes the participant library in cosimulation mode. It establishes the connection to the System Coupling solver.

The participant solver must have obtained the host and port information from System Coupling prior to creating this object (e.g. via an input argument when participant application was started). Copy constructor and assignment operators are disabled to avoid copying the created object.

Parameters

[in]	scHost	Name of the host on which System Coupling is running.
[in]	scPort	Port number on which System Coupling is listening for participant connections.
[in]	participantName	Name of this participant (e.g. "MAPDL-1")

void sysc::SystemCoupling::addCouplingInterface ( const CouplingInterface & couplingInterface )

Provide a function to add a coupling interface.

Parameters

[in] couplingInterface - coupling interface to be added.

Data transfers will be automatically created. If a variable is defined as an output on all regions on one side of the interface and as an input on all regions on the opposite side of the interface, then the data transfer will be added for this variable.

If this coupling interface has already been added, then this call will have no effect.

If a different coupling interface with the same has already been added, then a runtime error will be thrown.

If the coupling interface name contains invalid characters, then a runtime error will be thrown.

See sysc::CouplingInterface for more details.

◆ addCouplingInterface() [2/2]

void sysc::SystemCoupling::addCouplingInterface	(	const CouplingInterface &	couplingInterface,
		bool	autoGenerateTransfers
	)

Provide a function to add a coupling interface.

Parameters

[in]	couplingInterface	- coupling interface to be added.
[in]	autoGenerateTransfers	- flag whether to automatically create data transfers.

If this coupling interface has already been added, then this call will have no effect.

If a different coupling interface with the same has already been added, then a runtime error will be thrown.

If the coupling interface name contains invalid characters, then a runtime error will be thrown.

If autoGenerateTransfers is true, then the data transfers are generated automatically according to the following rule: if a variable is defined as an output on all regions on one side of the interface and as an input on all regions on the opposite side of the interface, then the data transfer will be added for this variable.

See sysc::CouplingInterface for more details.

◆ addInputParameter()

void sysc::SystemCoupling::addInputParameter ( Parameter parameter )

Provide a method to add an input parameter that could be used in a coupled analysis.

If this parameter has already been added as an input solver parameter, then this call will have no effect.

If a different parameter with the same name has already been added as an input parameter, then a runtime error will be thrown.

If a parameter with the same name has already been added as an output parameter, then a runtime error will be thrown.

If the parameter name contains invalid characters, a runtime error will be thrown.

Parameters

parameter Parameter whose values are provided by System Coupling and consumed by the participant.

◆ addOutputParameter()

void sysc::SystemCoupling::addOutputParameter ( Parameter parameter )

Provide a method to add an output parameter that could be used in a coupled analysis.

If this parameter has already been added as an output solver parameter, then this call will have no effect.

If a different parameter with the same name has already been added as an output parameter, then a runtime error will be thrown.

If a parameter with the same name has already been added as an input parameter, then a runtime error will be thrown.

If the parameter name contains invalid characters, a runtime error will be thrown.

Parameters

parameter Parameter whose values are provided by System Coupling and consumed by the participant.

◆ addRegion()

void sysc::SystemCoupling::addRegion ( const Region & region )

Provide a function to add a region that could be used in a coupled analysis.

If the region name contains invalid characters, then a runtime error will be thrown.

◆ completeSetup()

void sysc::SystemCoupling::completeSetup ( const sysc::SetupInfo & setupInfo )

Provide a function to notify System Coupling that setup can be completed.

After this function is called, coupled analysis setup can no longer be updated, i.e. regions and variables cannot be changed. Participant should also pass in sysc::SetupInfo struct to provide additional information about the setup, such as whether steady or transient analysis is to be performed.

Once the setup is complete, any subsequent call to complete the setup will have no effect.

◆ doIteration()

bool sysc::SystemCoupling::doIteration ( )

Provide a function to check whether to do a coupling iteration.

This function returns true if another coupling iteration is required, otherwise it returns false.

◆ doTimeStep()

bool sysc::SystemCoupling::doTimeStep ( )

Provide a function to check whether to do a coupling time step.

This function returns true if another coupling time step is required, otherwise it returns false.

This function should be called to check if another coupling time step should be done. If the previous coupling time step is finished and another time step should be performed, then calling this function will tell System Coupling that the coupling participant is going to advance to the next time step (i.e. calling doTimeStep() will cause doIteration() to change from returning false to returning true, under the conditions described above).

This function only makes sense for transient analysis. It will always return false for steady analysis.
