A solution mapping algorithm in EUROPLEXUS
This report presents the implementation in the EUROPLEXUS code of the possibility of storing a
solution for later re-mapping it as initial conditions for a subsequent simulation.
EUROPLEXUS [1] (also abbreviated as EPX) is a computer code jointly developed by the French
Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique (CEA DMT Saclay) and by EC-JRC. The code application domain
is the numerical simulation of fast transient phenomena such as explosions, crashes and impacts in
complex three-dimensional
uid-structure systems. The Cast3m [2] software from CEA is used as a
pre-processor to EPX when it is necessary to generate complex meshes.
The interest for a general solution re-mapping algorithm in a code such as EPX is evident, since
such an algorithm would allow to perform complex simulations that would be impossible or impractical
(e.g. due to high CPU cost) to carry out as a monolithic calculation.
