on transient::requested_outputs()

pf4d

Hi there,

It is not immediately apparent how transient:() works. Can anyone provide an explanation of which fields we can save using this?

Thanks much,
Evan

Hi Evan,

Which transient option do you usually use? Depending on the md.transient option, the requeseted output option will bed changed. I am not the developer of ISSM, so I have a limitation to inform the options of requested output

Thank you

Hi Inwoo,

You can add strings to the list of variables like GroundedArea or FloatingArea... I cannot find any documentation explaining how these strings can be chosen. There should be a list of all the choices to output somewhere...

Hi, Evan

I sympathize with your pain. I got similar problem with getting the simulation results. We have to look up the './Nightly' folder for finding the string of 'md.transient.requested_output'.

Hi Evan and In-Woo,

sorry it took me so long to get back to you, the settings of the forum have been changed and we are not receiving notifications anymore (should be fixed shortly).
You are not the first ones to ask for a list of outputs, and we have been dragging our feet a bit because it depends on what you are solving. You cannot request the stress if you don’t solve a stress balance for example, or the ice temperature if you are not solving a thermal model. So we don't have a list yet. The best is to look at some files in test/NightlyRun and you will see some examples:

md.transient.requested_outputs={'default','GroundedArea','FloatingArea','TotalFloatingBmb','TotalGroundedBmb','TotalSmb'};
md.transient.requested_outputs={'IceVolume','IceVolumeAboveFloatation','IceVolumeAboveFloatationScaled','GroundedArea','FloatingArea','GroundedAreaScaled','FloatingAreaScaled','IceMass'};
md.transient.requested_outputs={'default','StrainRateparallel','StrainRateperpendicular','Calvingratex','Calvingratey','CalvingCalvingrate'};
md.stressbalance.requested_outputs={'default','DeviatoricStressxx','DeviatoricStressyy','DeviatoricStressxy','MassFlux1','MassFlux2','MassFlux3','MassFlux4','MassFlux5','MassFlux6'}

But again, some of them may not work depending on what you solve for.
I hope this helps
