User Material unrecognized in FEAP 8.5

[aazoug]

Hi,

I have Feap 8.5 installed on a Mac Book Pro and I compiled a user material that I can use without any issue. When I do the same on the IMAc Pro (2017) MacOS Mojave, the user material name is not recognized and the computation stops. So I cannot add any user materials to FEAP, the original constitutive laws run without problem though.

Thanks for your help,
Aurelie

Sorry I am running FEAP 8.4 on the laptop, I cannot compile 8.5 on it.

That is unusual.  What compiler version are you using?  Also what is the compile error you are seeing with 8.5?  Both codes should build seamlessly on Mojave.  On my Mac with Mojave, I use

Code: [Select]

gfortran --version
GNU Fortran (Homebrew GCC 9.2.0_2) 9.2.0Similar for gcc.   Perhaps also post your makefile and the output when you run it (at least the part which compiles the user material and the link line).

The first thing I did was reinstall the fortran compiler, it would not compile otherwise. I have version 9.1.0 right now.
Something unusual happened in these two days, the problem fixed itself. The only thing I did is reinstall MATLAB today. But anyway, the user material is now working perfectly in FEAP 8.5, simulation runs flawlessly on the iMac Pro.

For the laptop MacBook Pro, it compiled but I used to get a segmentation fault when I tried to open the software. I removed everything and complied everything and we are now in business!

So I guess I solved all my issues, thanks for checking.

Good to hear.  If you get a chance, please let us know if 8.6 works for you also.
