NAME
yade - open-source platform for dynamic computations
SYNOPSIS
yade [options] [ simulation.xml[.bz2] | script.py [script options]]
DESCRIPTION
yade Extensible open-source framework for discrete numerical models, focused on Discrete Element Method. The computation parts are written
in c++ using flexible object model, allowing independent implementation of new alogrithms and interfaces. Python is used for rapid and con-
cise scene construction, simulation control, postprocessing and debugging.
See http://www.yade-dem.org/ for documentation and http://www.launchpad.net/yade for the project itself.
This is version with features cgal,gts,opengl,openmp,qt4,vtk.
OPTIONS
--version
show program's version number and exit
--help, -h
show this help message and exit
--threads=THREADS, -j THREADS
Number of OpenMP threads to run; defaults to 1. Equivalent to setting OMP_NUM_THREADS environment variable.
--cores=CORES
Set number of OpenMP threads (as --threads) and in addition set affinity of threads to the cores given.
--update
Update deprecated class names in given script(s) using text search & replace. Changed files will be backed up with ~ suffix. Exit
when done without running any simulation.
--nice=NICE
Increase nice level (i.e. decrease priority) by given number.
-x Exit when the script finishes
-n Run without graphical interface (equivalent to unsetting the DISPLAY environment variable)
--generate-manpage=FILE
Generate man page documenting this program and exit
--rebuild
Re-run build in the source directory, then run the updated yade with the same command line except --rebuild. The build profile for
this build (deb) and its stored parameters will be used.
--test Run regression test suite and exit; the exists status is 0 if all tests pass, 1 if a test fails and 2 for an unspecified exception.
--debug
Run the debug build, if available.
--checks
Run a series of user-defined check tests as described in /tmp/buildd/yade-0.80.1/scripts/checks-and-tests/checks/README
--performance
Starts a test to measure the productivity
--no-gdb
Do not show backtrace when yade crashes (only effective with --debug).
