Here are the main evolutions de HOMARD from the first release in SALOME 6.5.
-SALOME RELEASE 6.6 :
- - Interface with med 3.0.6
- - Default values for the time steps
- - New element types: TRIA7 and QUAD9
- - Optional output into the MED file of the level of refinement of every element
-
-SALOME RELEASE 7.1 :
- - Correction of a bug in the filtering of the refinement by groups
- - Driving of the adaptation by a threshold that is based upon the mean and the standard deviation (see :ref:`tui_create_hypothese`)
- - TUI: the last time step for the driving instant can be selected by SetTimeStepRankLast (see :ref:`tui_create_iteration`)
- - The destruction of the objects is available (GUI and TUI)
- - The TUI functions are modified: they act onto the objects and no more by the names:
- ``homard.AssociateIterHypo(iter_name,hypo_name)`` becomes ``iter.AssociateHypo(hypo_name)``, ``homard.AssociateHypoZone(hypo_name,zone_name,type_use)`` becomes ``hypo.AddZone(zone_name,type_use)``, ``homard.CreateIteration(iter_name,iter_parent_name)`` becomes ``case.NextIteration(iter_name)`` ou ``iter.NextIteration(iter_name)``
- - Addition of a function:
- ``cas.LastIteration()`` : returns the last iteration of the case (see :ref:`tui_create_iteration`)
- - Mesh analysis (see :ref:`gui_mesh_info`)
-
-SALOME RELEASE 7.2.0 :
- - A cone can be used as a support for a 2D boundary (see :ref:`tui_create_boundary`)
- - The result can be published or not published in SMESH (see :ref:`tui_create_iteration`)
- ``iter.Compute(option)`` becomes ``iter.Compute(option1, option2)``
- - A serie of iterations that is stored in a directory can be followed (see :ref:`gui_create_case`)
-
-SALOME VERSION 7.2.1 :
- - English documentation
- - Addition of a function:
- ``iter.SetInfoCompute(MessInfo)`` : gives options to track the computation (see :ref:`tui_create_iteration`)
- - Automatic creation of YACS schema:
- ``case.WriteYACSSchema(ScriptFile, DirName, MeshFile)`` : writes a schema YACS relative to the case (see :ref:`tui_create_case`)

+ - English documentation
+ - Options to track the computation (see :doc:`tui_create_iteration`): ``iter.SetInfoCompute(MessInfo)``
+ - Automatic creation of YACS schema:
+ ``case.WriteYACSSchema(ScriptFile, DirName, MeshFile)``: writes a schema YACS relative to the case (see :doc:`tui_create_case`)
+ - The initial mesh is not published in SMESH.
+ - The refinement of 2D meshes with quadrangles is improved to take into account 'staircases'.
+ - The fields overs elements can be interpolated with two ways: intensive or extensive.
+ - The time steps for the interpolation of the files can be choosen:
+ ``SetFieldInterpTimeStep(FieldInterp, TimeStep)``: defines the time step for the interpolation of the field (see :doc:`tui_create_iteration`)
+ ``SetFieldInterpTimeStepRank(FieldInterp, TimeStep, Rank)``: defines the time step and the rank for the interpolation of the field (see :doc:`tui_create_iteration`)
+ - If error occurs into the python instructions, the program stops.
+
+SALOME RELEASE 7.4:
+ - Scroll bar for the large windows.
+ - The meshes are published only if requested.
+ - The torus is a new possibility for the analytical boundary.
+ - The function ``SetAdapRefinUnRef(TypeAdap, TypeRaff, TypeDera)`` is suppressed. For an adaptation by a field or by zones, the mode refinement/unrefinement is automatically set from the other parameters of the hypothesis. For a uniform refinement, the function ``SetUnifRefinUnRef(TypeRaffDera)`` is now used (see :doc:`tui_create_hypothese`).
+ - If an error occurs, the name of the message file is displayed.
+ - Release 11.1 for the HOMARD binary. The conformal refinement of the meshes with hexaedra is improved: less meshes are produced.
+
+SALOME RELEASE 7.5:
+ - Additional extra output: diameters and qualities; the function ``SetExtraOutput(option)`` is now used (see :doc:`tui_create_hypothese`).
+ - Release 11.2 for the HOMARD binary ; improvement for the 1D curve boundaries.
+
+SALOME RELEASE 7.6:
+ - Interpolation of all the fields into the input file.
+
+SALOME RELEASE 8.1:
+ - Interface with med 3.2.0
+ - New options within the choice conformal/non-conformal.
+ - Less meshes are involved in the case of a non conformal refinement of a mesh made of hexahedra.
+ - Correction of an error when refinement and unrefinement are coupled for a mesh made of hexahedra.
+
+SALOME RELEASE 8.3:
+ - Interface with med 3.2.1

+
+SALOME RELEASE 8.4:
+ - Interface with med 3.3.0
+ - Correction for the conformal coarsening of a set of hexaedra
+ - Correction of the interpolation od a volumic field over prisms which are splitted into tetrahedra and pyramids
+ - Integer MED fields to glue the elements with different levels when non conformal refinement is used
