One quick question: if I need to do an inner product of a tensor "T" and a vector "a", should it be "T & a" instead of "a & T"?

Hi JunWei

I am still looking at how to update the gradU for each of the particle and I came across couple question as follows:

1. if gradU has 1301{(0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0)} at each time step, it...

Hi JunWei

I have attached my solidparticleIO.C here.

It looks like it counts the number of particles in the gradU in lagrangian folder, but all the gradU for each particle is not there.

Hi JunWei

Sorry about the confusion. I tried to store the gradU at particle centers into the Lagrangian folder, but it only contains the fist particle.

I added the following lines in the...

Hi JunWei

I updated gradU every time step as I have gradU in the data set for each time step. However, the there is no gradU stored in the lagrangian folder. As I have the position data and gradU...

Hi JunWei

Now I am trying to write out the gradU for each particle. So I add "gradU.write();" in the "solidparticleIO.C". This should create a file at /xxx/lagrangian/defaultCloud/gradU where xxx...

Hi JunWei

I managed to get gradU calculated and updated during the simulation. However, I have problem to access gradU. All my particle dynamics is defined in a file called "mySolidParticle.C". It...

Hi JunWei

I am trying to calculate the drag and lift force acting on the particle so that I need the velocity gradients from the Eulerian field at the position of the particle.

I will try to...

Hi JunWei

I am sorry about the confusion caused, the "U_" is the parcel velocity and it is a vector but not a vector field. Hence, I got some error complaining about "volTensorField...

access to velocity gradient for Lagrangian particles

Dear all

I am kind of get stuck at finding the velocity gradient at a particular position for the Lagrangian particle dynamics. My question is how I should calculate the velocity gradient if I...
