I am wondering if there is any way to refresh the input data from a dynamic text file in COMSOL for each iteration.
I have attempted to do this in Python, but COMSOL only solves the equation for the first input text file and not for any new files generated. The reason for this is that I have coupled COMSOL with a DEM-based software which feeds the input to COMSOL for each iteration. (same situation for the output to save the results as a text file)
While the connection is established through Python codes, I am unsure if Python can trigger the refresh button for each iteration!!!
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
To anyone encountering a similar question:
A more straightforward approach to automating the refresh button in your COMSOL model is as follows:
1. Extract the Java code from your COMSOL model: In COMSOL, you can export the model to Java code. Locate the section of the code that corresponds to the refresh button functionality.
2. Identify the relevant section for automation: Review the extracted Java code and identify the specific section that is responsible for triggering the refresh action when the button is clicked.
3. Utilize Python to automate the refresh action: In Python, you can make use of the `model.java` feature provided by COMSOL to interact with the Java code. You can create a Python script that sends the appropriate commands to trigger the refresh action in the COMSOL model.
By combining the capabilities of both Java and Python, you can automate the refresh button functionality in your COMSOL model. This allows you to programmatically initiate the refresh action without manual intervention.
