Title: Question on SUMS output in Parfeap (v8.6)
Post by: jskim on August 07, 2023, 05:39:39 AM

Dear all,

I am using the FEAP 8.6.1n, and working on parallel job.
When I used the previous version of FEAP (maybe 8.4), every P**_000*a.sum files, which was output of SUMS option from the parallel job, had different values.
But in the version of 8.6.1, all files have the same value.
I guess the value is the sum of the reactions (not for the divided domain, but for final target surface, already summed together).
I am wondering if this issue is common or just due to the update of software, or whether it could be my mistake.

Thank you always for your help.

Best regards,
Ji-Su

The reaction sums now are for all the dof's, not just those on individual processors.
