tem_simControl_module Module

  1. tem_simControl_module.f90
  2. tem_simControl_module

This module provides the facility to control the execution of the solver.

It is configured by the sim_control table in the configuration. From this table three settings will be read:

  • time_control defines the control of time stepping see tem_timeControl_module.
  • abort_criteria defines additional abort criteria to be heeded see tem_abortCriteria_module.
  • delay_check defines whether checks should be delayed (default is false).

If there is no sim_control found in the configuration, an attempt will be made to read the time_control table instead, while an empty abort_criteria table is assumed.

Thus, the general structure of the sim_control configuration has the following form:

  sim_control = {
    time_control = {},
    abort_criteria = {},
    delay_check = false
  }

Alternatively, if there are no abort criteria to be specified, and delay_check should not be activated in general, just the time_control table may be specified:

    time_control = {}

See the tem_timeControl_module for details on the time_control table. See the tem_abortCriteria_module for details on the time_control table.

The delay_check flag indicates whether to use a nonblocking allreduce for the synchronization of status flags, to decide on triggered events during the computation. It relaxes the synchronization requirements but introduces a delay by one check interval until all processes get set status bits.

A simple complete example without checks for steady state would be:

  sim_control = {
    time_control = {
      min = 0,
      max = 10.0,
      interval = {iter = 5}
    },
    abort_criteria = {
      stop_file = 'stop',
    },
    delay_check = false
  }
