Member Function Documentation

◆ AdvanceSimulation()

double chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::AdvanceSimulation ( float  duration)
virtual

Advance simulation by duration in user units, return actual duration elapsed.

Requires Initialize() to have been called.

Reimplemented in chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpuMesh.

◆ Initialize()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::Initialize ( )
virtual

Initialize simulation so that it can be advanced.

Must be called before AdvanceSimulation and after simulation parameters are set.

Reimplemented in chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpuMesh.

◆ ReadCsvParticles()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::ReadCsvParticles ( std::ifstream &  ifile,
unsigned int  totRow = UINT_MAX 
)
protected

Set particle positions, velocities and angular velocities from a CSV ifstream.

Methods that read sphere position/velocity info from a file serve as its wrapper.

◆ ReadDatParams()

unsigned int chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::ReadDatParams ( std::ifstream &  ifile,
bool  overwrite 
)
protected

Set simulation params from a DAT checkpoint file stream.

Returns the number of particles. If instructed to overwrite, then overwrite current simulation parameters with the values in the checkpoint file; else, when an inconsistency is found, throw an error. ReadCheckpointFile() is its wrapper.

◆ ReadHstHistory()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::ReadHstHistory ( std::ifstream &  ifile,
unsigned int  totItem = UINT_MAX 
)
protected

Set particle contact friction history from a hst ifstream.

Methods that read history info from a file serve as its wrapper.

◆ SetBDCenter()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::SetBDCenter ( const ChVector3f O)

Set the center of the big box domain, relative to the origin of the coordinate system (default: [0,0,0]).

Note that the domain is always axis-aligned. The user must make sure that all simulation information (particle locations, boundaries, meshes...) is consistent with this domain.

◆ SetBDFixed()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::SetBDFixed ( bool  fixed)

Set the big domain to be fixed or not.

If fixed, it will ignore any given position functions.

◆ SetDefragmentOnInitialize()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::SetDefragmentOnInitialize ( bool  defragment)

If yes, on Initialize(), particles will have their order re-arranged so that those in the same SD are close together.

This is usually done if starting from scratch, and optional if this is a re-started simulation. Note this is by default on, unless the user loads simulation data from files, in which case it gets disabled.

◆ SetFrictionMode()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::SetFrictionMode ( CHGPU_FRICTION_MODE  new_mode)

Set friction formulation.

The frictionless setting uses a streamlined solver and avoids storing any physics information associated with friction.

◆ SetParamsFromIdentifier()

bool chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::SetParamsFromIdentifier ( const std::string &  identifier,
std::istringstream &  iss1,
bool  overwrite 
)
protectedvirtual

Give a string identifier, set the corresponding simulation parameter, using a switch statement.

ReadDatParams() is its wrapper. It must be virtual, because derived classes also use it (and may call it from a inherited method), and read some more data (thus built on top of it). We must ensure those derived classes call the correct version of it.

◆ SetParticleFixed()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::SetParticleFixed ( const std::vector< bool > &  fixed)

Set flags indicating whether or not a particle is fixed.

MUST be called only once and MUST be called before Initialize.

◆ SetRollingMode()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::SetRollingMode ( CHGPU_ROLLING_MODE  new_mode)

Set rolling resistence formulation.

NOTE: This requires friction to be active, otherwise this setting will be ignored.

◆ WriteCheckpointFile()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::WriteCheckpointFile ( const std::string &  outfilename)

Write a one-stop checkpoint file for Chrono::Gpu.

All information defining a simulation is in this file.

◆ WriteCsvParticles()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::WriteCsvParticles ( std::ofstream &  ptFile) const
protected

Write particle position, velocity and ang.

vel. to a stream (of several possible formats). WriteCheckpointFile() and WriteParticleFile() are their wrappers.

◆ WriteHstHistory()

void chrono::gpu::ChSystemGpu::WriteHstHistory ( std::ofstream &  histFile) const
protected

Write contact pair/history to a stream.

WriteCheckpointFile() and WriteContactHistoryFile() are its wrappers.
