Detailed Description

Perform checkpoint and restart of Notus.

The checkpoint/restart system helps to recover the simulation in case of a system crash.

The routines behave as follow:

The checkpoint routine writes the state of Notus at the current time iteration when the routine is called.
The checkpoint files are located in the checkpoint directory under the output directory.
The restart routine reads the files located in the checkpoint directory.
To avoid data corruption, checkpoint information are written alternatively in two sub-directories checkpoint_1 and checkpoint_2 located in the checkpoint directory.
The checkpoint frequency can be specified in the user interface.
