Dear Anne-Cecile In a first look it seems correct for homogeneous Dirichlet condition.
For non homogeneous Dirichlet conditions you do not need the partial mesh_fem, just define mfpb = gf.MeshFem(meshb, 1) mfpb.set_classical_fem(press_fem_order) but then you need to define and use a multiplier variable in the model: md.add_initialized_data("p_atm", ....) md.add_fem_variable('p', mfpb) md.add_filtered_fem_variable('multp', mfpb, DPB) md.add_linear_generic_assembly_brick(mim, "(p-p_atm)*multp", DPB) You can see a similar example here: https://git.savannah.nongnu.org/cgit/getfem.git/tree/contrib/continuum_mechanics/plasticity_finite_strain_linear_hardening_tension_3D.py BR Kostas On Thu, Nov 18, 2021 at 9:16 PM Lesage,Anne Cecile J < ajles...@mdanderson.org> wrote: > Dear all > > > > If I want to define a set of points with Dirichlet boundary conditions on > a scalar unknown (pressure), are the following python script lines correct > (using numpy here)? > > > > *import numpy as np* > > > > *DPB = 2 # dirichlet on pressure brain* > > *print('Read DIRICHLET boundary condition cranio');* > > *# read dirichlet conditions on pressure* > > *filecranio = open('craniopdir.txt', 'r') # 'r' = read* > > *pidcranio = np.loadtxt(filecranio,dtype=int)* > > *#print(pidcranio)* > > *filecranio.close()* > > *fcranio=meshb.faces_from_pid(pidcranio)* > > *meshb.set_region(DPB,fcranio)* > > > > > > *mfpb_ = gf.MeshFem(meshb, 1)* > > *mfpb_.set_classical_fem(press_fem_order)* > > *keptdofs = np.arange(mfpb_.nbdof())* > > *keptdofs = np.setdiff1d(keptdofs, mfpb_.basic_dof_on_region(DPB))* > > *mfpb = gf.MeshFem("partial", mfpb_, keptdofs)* > > > > How to set up that on these faces/nodes the pressure is non zero (p0= > atmospheric pressure)? > > > > Thank you > > Regards > > Anne-Cecile > > > The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged, > confidential, and/or protected from disclosure.
