Description
Dear all,
I am a newbie with FLUKA and I am trying to understand how it works running the examples for the distributive.
However, for a couple of examples I encountered errors. I’m wondering whether the issue is with my setup or with the examples themselves.
example.inc → runs OK
gcrexampleAllParticle.inp → *** Fluence yields are not supported anymore with USRYIELD cards (kind = 6). Choose another kind of yield or cross section. To score fluence, choose a USRBDX card.
aib_example.inp → Coalescence activated and beam above BME limit with no rQMD
Execution terminated.
Input files
I don’t attach tehm since anybody can find them. The files were not changed prior the run.
on a general note, if you want to learn FLUKA hands-on, I would recommend to use the exercises from the FLUKA courses. They are more up-to-date and come with solutions as well as a whole lecture on the details needed to run the exercise examples. You can find the most recent beginner course here.
Concerning the examples you tried:
gcrexampleAllParticle.inp seems to use an obsolete USRYIELD input. It is simply outdated.
aib_example.inp needs the event generator rQMD, which is not included in FLUKA by default. To link it, switch to the Compile tab in Flair, select ldpmqmd from the drop down menu under ‘Action’ and hit Build and save the linked executable. With this executable, you should be able to run the example.
