Getting started with ELI

Downloading an AppImage

Each model has an associated AppImage, which is a single file that contains Linux executable and supplementary files.

Click on a link below to download an ELI AppImage.

You can manage these files with filebrowser (authentication is required)

Installation

  • Installation is easy: save the AppImage to your Desktop folder and change its permissions to executable.

Running ELI

  • Double click on an AppImage icon to open ELI. Click on Quit to close ELI.

  • The working directory is ELI.home in your home directory. Supplementary files, such as documentation, input files for demonstration and testing, and auxiliary client-server scripts, are placed here.

  • As a first example, enter in/<model>/t/Hugoniot into the Input Filename text box, which is the second line on the Main tab. Here <model> is one of the following names: corey_quad, quad, surf, or micellar. Then click on the Read button that is located to the right of the text box. ELI reads the specified input file and executes the commands it finds. Execution is paused at each Pause command; to continue past a pause, click on Read.
