3.3 Outputs

The main set of output data is generated and placed into the output file Unit7 which the user names within the program. The output that is generic to all the codes will be presented first and then in each subsection, a description of the specific output per program is presented.

All programs report the following information in the first few lines of the output file.

• Prints out "MICRO&334; (which microstructure is currently being calculated); the program can be adjusted to use multiple input files.
• Prints out the values for nx, ny, nz, ns, nprocs, where nprocs = number of processors for this job.
• The volume fraction of each phase.
• The input values of the applied fields (electrical, mechanical, thermal)
• Values of conductivity tensors or bulk and shear elastic moduli per phase. This is dependent on the specific program, but always appears at this time.
• Final C = C
• Initial Energy = E₀
• gg = g₀

The programs will now print out the following information after each ldemb or ncheck conjugate gradient steps until convergence.

• Energy = E₁ gg = gg1
• Number of conjugate steps = up to that point
• Root took S₁ s for ldemb conjugate steps.
• Intermediate results

The last list entry, Intermediate results, refers to the specific observables, which the given program calculates.

If there is more than one microstructure under investigation, each node will print its execution time for that microstructure. Otherwise, they will print their overall execution time.
