Hello Chrono developers,


To ensure a tighter coupling between (mesh or particle-based ) CFD solver 
and Chrono, it may be necessary to conduct several iterations per time 
step. Is there a function in ChSystem that can simply restore the system 
state (bodies, links, FEA, contact, etc) to the previous time step?


The current archives and (de)serialization write the system to an external 
file (binary, json, xml), which I suppose supports a restart simulation. 
https://api.projectchrono.org/tutorial_demo_archive.html 

Every time a system state is deserialized through such a file, the 
predefined bodies and links are, however, not restored to the previous time 
step. Could the Chrono system be serialized directly into the memory, or 
even better, can the system restore the states of all its children to a 
previous time step, while still using all of the children’s predefined 
pointers/references? Is this possible, or did I misunderstand something?


I notice that the current FSI module adopts a loose coupling approach. No 
fluid-solid iteration is to be performed within every time step. 


Thank you,

Haifei
