Euler-Lagrange Simulation

[Anand]

Hi developer,
I have query regarding the Euler-Lagrange Bifurcation simulation.

1) Why does the particle track start after the fluid solution is complete? Is it because of one-way coupling (particle does not influence fluid)? if not, Is it possible to solve them simultaneously?

2) If yes, Is it possible to start the particle solution just after the fluid solution converges?

Thank you
Regards
Ananda

1) Yes, the bifurcation3d Euler-Lagrange example models one-way coupling between particles and fluid.

2) Yes, you can modify the fluid simulation loop to exit on convergence by adding an appropriate check. By default it stops once fluidMaxPhysT is reached.
