Problem using -partbegin with periodic boundary conditions
Greetings,
After running DualSPHysics for 40 seconds (let's call this "Run A" ), I am running DualSPHysics again for another 40 seconds (let's call this "Run B") using the last timestep of Run A as the first timestep of Run B via the partbegin option.
Run A has a TimeOut of 0.1 and TimeMax is 40 seconds, so 400 bi4 files are produced. The directory where the new results for Run B will be stored is declared as a variable ("dircontinue") in the batch script, so DualSPHysics is called as folows:
DualSPHysics gets far enough to show "PartBegin=400" in the output, but after the "Loading initial state of particles..." message, I get an error from JPartsLoad4:
I have periodic BCs in both the x and the y for both Run A and Run B, which both use the same CaseDef XML. If I turn off the periodic BCs in the CaseDef, Run B does run, but I need the periodic BCs. I'm not sure if this is a bug or user error, but if anyone can provide guidance about how to get past this problem, I would be most grateful.

I also had that issue ... as far as I remember there is a bug related to loading cases with X and Y periodics... it was somewhere written in the forum ... but I cant find it right now ... best H
Please Nick, can you tell me if the error still appears in the beta version of 4.2
