IMPACT

Multiphysics application coupling toolkit

Version

Version 2.1.1

IMPACT follows semantic versioning. The version will be major.minor.patch. We will: * Increase the version for bug fixes, security fixes, and code documentation. Backwards compatible; no breaking changes. * Increase the minor version for new features and additions to the library’s interface. Backwards compatible; no breaking changes. * Increase the major version for breaking changes to the library’s interface or breaking changes to behavior.

Getting Started

To acquire IMPACT, you can clone it with the following command:

$ git clone git@git.illinois.rocstar:IR/IMPACT-NO-IRAD.git

Build Instructions

Dependencies

Make sure to apt install following before you start

• build-essential
• cmake
• liblapack-dev
• libblas-dev
• libjpeg-dev
• EITHER mpich OR openmpi
• EITHER libcgns-dev OR libhdf4-dev

all of these can be obtained using linux apt-get install command.

Build IMPACT

NOTE Currently IMPACT is only tested with MPI compilers. Serial build is not recommended.

In the following, we assume $IMPACT_PROJECT_PATH is the path to the IMPACT directory, and $IMPACT_INSTALL_PATH is the desired installation location. Start the build process by executing:

$ cd $IMPACT_PROJECT_PATH
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$IMPACT_INSTALL_PATH .. 
$ make -j$(nproc)
$ make install

Executing the commands above will build all libraries and executables.

NOTE The CMake variables can also be set by using ccmake . from the build directory.

Testing IMPACT

To perform testing, be sure to turn on the ENABLE_TESTS CMake variable. This can be done by adding -DENABLE_TESTS=ON to the cmake command listed above, or by using the ccmake GUI. After enabling tests be sure to recompile and execute the following in the build directory:

$ make test

Currently most of the tests rely on CGNS input files, so only a fraction of the tests will run if IO_FORMAT=HDF4. The output of tests are captured in $IMPACT_PROJECT_PATH/build/testing/data. The testing framework also keeps a log of the test outputs in $IMPACT_PROJECT_PATH/build/Testing/Temporary directory. If tests fail seek output log in this directory for more details.
