Hi Andriy,

Thank you for the advice. They are very helpful. I have a question regarding 
the ga_interpolation_im_data as below

Say if I do

getfem::im_data previous_cauthy_1(mim_1);     (step 1)
model.add_im_data("previous_cauthy_1", previous_cauthy_1);     (step  2)
other stuff here
getfem::ga_interpolation_im_data(model, "Grad_u_1" , previous_cauthy_1, 
base_vector_previous_cauthy_1);    (step 3)

When I do the step 3, do I update the "previous_cauthy_1"  defined in (step  2) 
which is inside the model  or update the previous_cauthy_1 defined in the (step 
1) or both ? (because they are linked)
I assume by doing the (step 3), the im_data “previous_cauthy_1” in the model is 
updated, right?
Thank you very much
Regards
Zhenghuai Guo

Dear Zhenghuai Guo,

There are several ways. A very concise way is using interpolation functions 
with expression<http://getfem.org/userdoc/interMM.html>,

Interpolation on an im_data object (on the Gauss points of an integration 
method):

void getfem::ga_interpolation_im_data(md, expr, im_data &imd,

 base_vector &result, const mesh_region &rg=mesh_region::all_convexes());
However, if this, for some reason doesn't work for you, you can simply iterate 
over elements (or faces) of a region of interest and set
the data on each Gauss point in a loop:

  getfem::mesh mesh;
  getfem::mesh_im im(mesh);
  bgeot::multi_index matrixSize(2, 2);
  auto regionA = 1;
  ImData imDataA(im, matrixSize, regionA);
  PlainVector data(imDataA.nb_tensor_elem() * imDataA.nb_filtered_index());
  for (auto v = getfem::mr_visitor{mesh.region(regionA)}; !v.finished(); ++v)
  {
    for (size_t point = 0; point != 
imDataA.nb_points_of_element(v.cv<http://v.cv>()); ++point)
    {
      bgeot::base_matrix M(2, 2);
      // fill in M
      imDataA.set_matrix(data, v.cv<http://v.cv>(), point, M);
    }
  }

you can also set this way ImData for vectors and scalars, of course.

Best regards,
                           Andriy

Hi, Konstantinos and Yves  and Andriy,
I add a im_data “previous_cauthy_1” to the model. Then in each step of a loop 
from 1 to 10, I would like to update this im_data. The code sample is as below. 
Could you please teach me how to update values of the im_data?

getfem::im_data previous_cauthy_1(mim_1);
model.add_im_data("previous_cauthy_1", previous_cauthy_1);
getfem::add_nonlinear_term(model, 
mim_1,"(lambda_1*Trace(Grad_u_1-previous_cauthy_1)*Id(qdim(u_1)) + 
mu_1*(Grad_u_1+Grad_u_1'-previous_cauthy_1-previous_cauthy_1')):Grad_Test_u_1" 
);

for i = 1 to 10:
{
 getfem::standard_solve(model, iter, solver_name, ls);

update im_data "previous_cauthy_1", for the next loop step
}


Thank you very much
