Once you have clicked on the

button, you can save the shell script to a local directory by using the
Save As
function in your browser (save in text format, not HTML)
Notes
1) File name convention:
Output elle files resulting from using this shelle script will be of the form Experiment_Name.xxx.yy.elle where xxx is the time step and yy is the process code (shown above in square brackets), as follows:
00=input file
01=following initial randomisation of crystal axis orientations
03=following a BASIL step
04=following a TBH step
05=following a Sub-grain Split step
06=following a GBM step
08=following a Porphyroblast growth step
09=following an OOF step
10=following a Nucleation/Rotation Recrystallisation step
11=following a Misorientation/Rotation Recrystallisation step
12=following a Recovery calculation step
13=following a Repositioning step
15=following an Angle check step
16=following a Viscosity calculation step
17=following a Merge calculation step
18=following a Grain Growth step
19=following an Expand step
20=following a Grain Boundary Diffusion step
21=following a Lattice Diffusion step
22=following a Homogeneous Simple Shear step
99=following a User Defined Process step
2) Randomise Orientations:
When checked, this option randomises the lattice orientations of any quartz grains which have not already been defined, one time only, at the start of the experiment.
3) Save Orientation Plots:
When checked, at the save interval frequency, c-, a- and r- axis pole figures of quartz grains will be saved out as postscript files with the naming convention ellefilename_ax.ps .
4) Reposition Simple Shear Experiment:
This normalises the elle space to a square after each BASIL deformation step.
5) The Widen narrow verices (angle check) removes narrow vertices from Flynns to make trianglulation better.
6) The merge calculation removes very small grains.
7) The Statistics calculation simply outputs information to file.
8) If the "Save updated Postscript file" option is turned on, a postscript file of the current Elle microstructure called tmp.ps is created (using showelle.in defaults), if you use ghostview with the "watch file" option enabled, the window will update with the new file each save step.
