Hi David,

 

I solve the system with the command below:

 

-ksp_type preonly -pc_type lu -pc_factor_mat_solver_package mumps

 

It means that the system is solved by KSP with LU as preconditioning. Should I 
precise the asymmetric solver in my command? How to write it correctly? Thanks 
for your help. 

 

Regards,

Gauvain

Hello,

 

The convergence behavior that you describe is typical of reduced basis 
convergence: It will plateau after an error reduction of about six orders of 
magnitude or so. So it sounds like the convergence is working fine in the sense 
that you got a reduction from 1.3569e7 to 41. When you get the message "Exiting 
greedy because the same parameters were selected twice" that is another 
indication that the greedy algorithm has plateaued.

 

I do not know why the RB solution and FE solution did not match well at the 
end, though --- that of course indicates that something is wrong. One thought; 
Did you make sure to use an asymmetric solver, since thermoelasticity is not 
symmetric?

 

David

Hi all,



I made a thermoelasticity model based on the cantilever example,
reduced_basis_ex5, by adding a new temperature variable. At the beginning of
the basis training procedure, the maximum error bound drops sharply from
1.35694e+07 to 41 as the dimension of the basis increases from 0 to 5. After
that, although the basis dimension keeps growing, the error bound stops
decreasing and stays at a certain number. The relative training tolerance is
set at 1.e-7 and the mesh is a T-shaped pipe.



---- Basis dimension: 5 ----

Performing RB solves on training set

Maximum error bound is 2.42578



Performing truth solve at parameter:

h: 1.055972e+01

h_Tinf: 2.472563e+02

heat_flux: 4.261782e+01



---- Basis dimension: 6 ----

Performing RB solves on training set

Maximum error bound is 2.43818



Performing truth solve at parameter:

h: 1.151397e+01

h_Tinf: 2.473108e+02

heat_flux: 4.481571e+01



---- Basis dimension: 7 ----

Performing RB solves on training set

Maximum error bound is 2.44673



Exiting greedy because the same parameters were selected twice



The RB result obtained from this basis differs a lot from the FEM result. I
searched archives of the mailing list and found that this phenomenon might
result from an overly low training tolerance. However, the initial error
bound being nearly e+07, if I select a less strict tolerance, I will end up
having an unsatisfying error and probably a worse result. Could you please
suggest me some advice? I would be grateful for your response.



Best regards,

Gauvain
