Need help on Using OpenSeesSP

Post by frank_lv » Sat Dec 25, 2010 12:00 am

The day I put on this new topic is 25 December 2010, so first of all MERRY ChRISTMAS all of you !!!


I have some questions about opensees. I download OpenSees source code (we used version 2.1.0 ) and compile the OpenSeesSP successfully on redhat el5 os. MPI we use OpenMPI-1.3.3, and I installed the petSC 2.2.1. This OpenSeesSP can run with example model in TeraGridExamples/Example1.tcl which resides in OpenSees source code directory EXAMPLE. But it can not run with our test model. Serial OpenSees can run with our test model successfully. Below I put some error ouputs:

I have googled them, but got nothing helpful. Then I checked OpenSees source code, I found those warnings come from slave processes, when they receive ElementalLoads. In this model the ElementalLoads are Beam3dUniformLoad, and in sendSelf() / recvSelf() function, do not send or receive Beam3dUniformLoad Object Tag, Below are some code fragments:


int Beam3dUniformLoad::sendSelf(int commitTag, Channel &theChannel)
{
int dbTag = this->getDbTag();

static Vector vectData(4);
vectData(0) = wx;
vectData(1) = wy;
vectData(2) = wz;
vectData(3) = eleTag;

int result = theChannel.sendVector(dbTag, commitTag, vectData);
if (result < 0) {
opserr << "Beam3dUniformLoad::sendSelf - failed to send data\n";
return result;
}

return 0;
}

int Beam3dUniformLoad::recvSelf(int commitTag, Channel &theChannel,
FEM_ObjectBroker &theBroker)
{
int dbTag = this->getDbTag();

static Vector vectData(4);

int result = theChannel.recvVector(dbTag, commitTag, vectData);
if (result < 0) {
opserr << "Beam3dUniformLoad::sendSelf - failed to send data\n";
return result;
}

wx = vectData(0);;
wy = vectData(1);;
wz = vectData(2);;
eleTag = (int)vectData(3);

return 0;
}




As you can see, both of two functions do not use the “theTag” attribute, which I guess uniquely identified each Object. I check the ForBeamColumn3d element class implementations, and in sendSelf()/recvSelf(), both use getTag()/setTag() function to get/set the “theTag” attribute. So I modified the source of Beam3dUniformLoad.cpp in sendSelf()/recvSelf(), add “theTag”.

Then I run OpenSeesSP with our test model again, and those warnings were disappeared, but still got segment fault. Below are error outputs:

mpirun noticed that process rank 0 with PID 29917 on node localhost.localdomain exited on signal 11 (Segmentation fault).

I used gdb to debug the process with rank 0, I found the segment fault error arise in ElementalLoad::applyLoad() when process 0 try to static analysis. The reason is that in model partition phase, when elements were added to subdomain, they were removed from main Domain at the same time. However, ElementalLoads were added to subdomain, were not removed from Domain, this cause some ElementalLoads had no elements associated with. So In the process 0, when static analysis begin, ElementalLoad::applyLoad() were invoked, element pointers in some ElementalLoads were point invalid memory address, and segment fault came up. The following code fragment is add ElementalLoads to subdomain in file DomainPartitioner.cpp:
ElementalLoadIter &theLoads = theLoadPattern->getElementalLoads();
ElementalLoad *theLoad;
while ((theLoad = theLoads()) != 0) {
int loadEleTag = theLoad->getElementTag();
// find subdomain with node and add it .. break if find as internal node
SubdomainIter &theSubdomains = myDomain->getSubdomains();
Subdomain *theSub;
bool added = false;
while (((theSub = theSubdomains()) != 0) && (added == false)) {
bool res = theSub->hasElement(loadEleTag);
if (res == true)
{
// opserr << "PartitionedDomain::addLoadPattern(LoadPattern *loadPattern) SUB " << theSub->getTag() << *load;
int res = theSub->addElementalLoad(theLoad, loadPatternTag);
if (res < 0)
opserr << "DomainPartitioner::partition() - failed to add ElementalLoad\n";
added = true;
}
}
}

So I modified DomainPartitioner.cpp and ElementalLoads.cpp to remove ElementalLoads which were added into subdomain, and run OpenSeesSP with our test model, and segment fault did not show up again. Unfortunately, there still were errors, the outputs are following:

I can’t figure out what is going on.



So, the question are :

a) What I modified are correct ? Or I totally misunderstand the whole OpenSees analysis procedure?
b) I want to attach our test model scripts, but I don't how.


please help

i thought i emailed you back that your script was failing in the solver when i ran it sequentially .. the parallel case was just showing the same problem

I am very sorry for that i did not notice your email.


But , i am pretty sure that it can run sequentially. I ran the model using OpenSees sequentially successfully today, again just for sure.

By the way, The element load partition problem that i found, is it a real problem or it is just my mistake?

hi fmk, sorry for bother you again. could send me you send me your Makefile.def used to build sequential OpenSees. right now i am very confused that sequentially you can not run it. please let me know you computing environment, too. thanks again! My email address: lvhai@emails.bjut.edu.cn

Frank, I've had the same problem. Have you tried it on a newer System, I found that, that was my solution.

So I modified DomainPartitioner.cpp and ElementalLoads.cpp to remove ElementalLoads which were added into subdomain, and run OpenSeesSP with our test model, and segment fault did not show up again. Unfortunately, there still were errors, the outputs are following: We should agree with this one..
