Configration file: Why can't you use the rbf method in an xml file?

Using preCICE
1

Below is my stream solid coupling configuration file, using the rbf mapping method results in an error message, switching to nearest-neighbor works, as：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<precice-configuration>
  <log>
    <sink
      filter="%Severity% > trace and %Rank% = 0"
      format="---[precice] %ColorizedSeverity% %Message%"
      enabled="true" />
  </log>

  <solver-interface dimensions="3">
    <data:vector name="Force"/>
    <data:vector name="Displacement"/>

    <mesh name="Fluid-Mesh">
      <use-data name="Force"/>
      <use-data name="Displacement"/>
    </mesh>

    <mesh name="Solid-Mesh">

        from="Fluid-Mesh"
        to="Solid-Mesh"
        constraint="conservative"/>
      <mapping:rbf-thin-plate-splines
        direction="read"
        from="Solid-Mesh"
        to="Fluid-Mesh"
        constraint="consistent"/>
    </participant>

    <participant name="abaqus">

      <use-mesh name="Fluid-Mesh" from="Fluid"/>
      <write-data name="Displacement" mesh="Solid-Mesh"/>
      <read-data name="Force" mesh="Solid-Mesh"/>
    </participant>

        <data name="Force" mesh="Solid-Mesh" />
        <preconditioner type="residual-sum" />
        <filter type="QR2" limit="1e-2" />
        <initial-relaxation value="0.5" />
        <max-used-iterations value="100" />

      </acceleration:IQN-ILS>
    </coupling-scheme:parallel-implicit>
  </solver-interface>

My question is:
The above configuration is running with an error message,but replace “mapping:rbf-thin-plate-splines” with “mapping:nearest-neighbor” can get it to work, I don’t know why?

it’s very strange, can someone answer me?

What error message are you getting?

it’s like this:

aaaahhh… This is not related to the mapping, but to the MPI version that Fluent is compiled with.

Potential workarounds:

  1. Try setting use-qr-decomposition="1" in your <mapping:rbf-thin-plate-splines ... />. This should use an Eigen-based implementation, which does not rely on MPI.
  2. If (1) does not work, try recompiling preCICE without PETSc: cmake -DPRECICE_PETScMapping=OFF ..
  3. If also (2) does not work, try recompiling preCICE also without MPI: cmake -DPRECICE_PETScMapping=OFF -DPRECICE_MPICommunication=OFF ..

I have try as (2) , the original mistake disappeared,but but a new problem appeared:
the communication process seemed to be stuck on something, as follow:
