Dear All,

I want to do an if conditional statement for two variables witch are surfaceScalarFields (MR_N and ML_N).

The code compile without erros, on the other and this will result in a infinite loop.


Code:
forAll(mesh.faces(),faceI)   


  {

 if(mag(MR_N[faceI]) >= scalar(1.0)) 
     {
      
         surfaceScalarField            M4_neg = M1_neg; 
         surfaceScalarField            P5_neg = 1.0/(2.0*MR_N)*(MR_N-mag(MR_N)); 

    

   if(mag(ML_N[faceI]) >= scalar(1.0)) /

      {
         surfaceScalarField     M4_pos = M1_pos; 
         surfaceScalarField     P5_pos = 1.0/(2.0*ML_N)*(ML_N+mag(ML_N)); 
      }
      
  }
Any suggestions?

Cheers

Carlos

I didn't run the example, but I don't see why it should be an infinite loop. Is it just your impression? Did you debug the loop, printing faceI and mesh.faces().size()?

The first if-clause is missing a "}" which can result in weird effects. Besides that, it should give a compiler error.

The real problem seems to be that you create up to four new surfaceScalarFields per iteration. Depending on the implementation and your mesh size this can be extremely slow. You didn't mention the purpose of this code. But M4_neg...M5_pos are only visible in their surrounding if-clauses and go out of scope again.

Maybe what you want is:
  • Create M4_neg...P5_pos outside of the for-loop
  • Inside the if-clauses set M4_neg[faceI] = M1_neg[faceI]; and respectively the other fields

Dear Patricia,

Thanks for your reply

The missing a "}" is just a typo.

I didn't run a debug, I'm not an expert in C++ and I'm just trying to understand if mine implementation is correct.

I will follow your suggestion.

Dear Patricia,

I follow your solution and my first impression was that it works.

But now Its giving me the following error:

#0 Foam::error:rintStack(Foam::Ostream&) in "/opt/openfoam171/lib/linux64GccDPOpt/libOpenFOAM.so"
#1 Foam::sigSegv::sigSegvHandler(int) in "/opt/openfoam171/lib/linux64GccDPOpt/libOpenFOAM.so"
#2 in "/lib/libc.so.6"
#3
in "/opt/openfoam171/applications/bin/linux64GccDPOpt/ausmFoam"
#4 __libc_start_main in "/lib/libc.so.6"
#5
in "/opt/openfoam171/applications/bin/linux64GccDPOpt/ausmFoam"
Segmentation fault


Which normally is caused by an application accessing memory outside the allocated space.

Any suggestion?

The code:

Code:
         surfaceScalarField     M1_pos = (ML_N+mag(ML_N))/2.0; //Funcao do lado esquerdo
         surfaceScalarField     M1_neg = (MR_N-mag(MR_N))/2.0; //Funcao do lado direito

         surfaceScalarField     M4_neg = -1.0/4.0*magSqr(MR_N-1.0)-1.0/8.0*magSqr(magSqr(MR_N)-1.0); 
         surfaceScalarField     P5_neg =  1.0/4.0*magSqr(MR_N-1.0)*(2.0+MR_N)-3.0/16.0*MR_N*magSqr(magSqr(MR_N)-1); 

         surfaceScalarField     M4_pos = 1.0/4.0*magSqr(ML_N+1.0)+1.0/8.0*magSqr(magSqr(ML_N)-1.0);  
         surfaceScalarField     P5_pos = 1.0/4.0*magSqr(ML_N+1.0)*(2.0-ML_N)+3.0/16.0*ML_N*magSqr(magSqr(ML_N)-1);




forAll(mesh.faces(),faceI)   

  {

 if(mag(MR_N[faceI]) >= scalar(1.0)) //valores do lado direito

     {
      
            M4_neg[faceI] = M1_neg[faceI]; //Funcao do lado direito
            P5_neg[faceI] = M1_neg[faceI]/MR_N[faceI]; 
     }

    

   if(mag(ML_N[faceI]) >= scalar(1.0)) //valores do lado esquerdo

      {
         M4_pos[faceI] = M1_pos[faceI]; //Funcao do lado esquerdo
         P5_pos[faceI] = M1_pos[faceI]/ML_N[faceI];   
      }


      
  }

I forgot to say that the error occurs in the following line:


P5_pos[faceI] = M1_pos[faceI]/ML_N[faceI];

Can't help. You'd have to attach a complete example.

Use a debugger to find the value of faceI where the segmentation fault happens. Check that faceI<P5_pos.size() and faceI<M1_pos.size() and faceI<ML_N.size(). I guess that these conditions are violated.
The problem may be different addressing of either only internal or all faces in the fvMesh and surfaceScalarField classes.
