Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Element() [1/2]

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::Element ( unsigned  index,
const std::vector< Node< SPACE_DIM > * > &  rNodes,
bool  registerWithNodes = true 
)

Constructor which takes in a vector of nodes.

Parameters
indexthe index of the element in the mesh
rNodesthe nodes owned by the element
registerWithNodeswhether to tell the nodes that they are contained in this element

Definition at line 46 of file Element.cpp.

References Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::RegisterWithNodes().

◆ Element() [2/2]

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::Element ( const Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM > &  rElement,
const unsigned  index 
)

"Copy" constructor which allows a new index to be specified.

Parameters
rElementan element to copy
indexthe index of the new element

Definition at line 56 of file Element.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ CalculateCircumsphere()

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
c_vector< double, SPACE_DIM+1 > Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::CalculateCircumsphere ( c_matrix< double, SPACE_DIM, ELEMENT_DIM > &  rJacobian,
c_matrix< double, ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM > &  rInverseJacobian 
)

Calculate the circumsphere/circumcircle of this element.

After reconstructing a cylindrical 2d mesh, the Jacobian data of the periodic elements is not valid anymore. We want to use the jacobians computed before swapping the nodes.

Returns
a vector containing x_centre, y_centre,...,radius^2
Parameters
rJacobianthe Jacobian matrix
rInverseJacobianthe inverse Jacobian matrix

◆ CalculateCircumsphereVolume()

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
double Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::CalculateCircumsphereVolume ( )
Returns
the volume of the circumsphere, or area of the circumcircle, of this element.

◆ CalculateInterpolationWeights()

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
c_vector< double, SPACE_DIM+1 > Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::CalculateInterpolationWeights ( const ChastePoint< SPACE_DIM > &  rTestPoint)
Returns
calculated interpolation weights: the vector (1-xi(0)-xi(1)-xi(2), xi(0), xi(1), xi(2)) (in the 3D case) for a given point. (see CalculateXi() documentation)
Parameters
rTestPointreference to the point

◆ CalculateInterpolationWeightsWithProjection()

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
c_vector< double, SPACE_DIM+1 > Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::CalculateInterpolationWeightsWithProjection ( const ChastePoint< SPACE_DIM > &  rTestPoint)
Returns
calculated interpolation weights (see CalculateInterpolationWeights() documentation), but if we are not within the element (one or more negative weights), we project onto the element, rather than extrapolating from it.
Parameters
rTestPointreference to the point

Definition at line 244 of file Element.cpp.

◆ CalculateMinMaxEdgeLengths()

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
c_vector< double, 2 > Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::CalculateMinMaxEdgeLengths ( )
Returns
calculated maximum and minimum edge lengths

Definition at line 199 of file Element.cpp.

◆ CalculateQuality()

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
double Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::CalculateQuality ( )
Returns
the quality of a triangle/tetrahedron is the ratio between the volume of the shape and the volume of its circumsphere. This is normalised by dividing through by the Platonic ratio.

The quality of a triangle/tetrahedron is the ratio between the volume of the shape and the volume of its circumsphere. This is normalised by dividing through by the Platonic ratio.

Definition at line 159 of file Element.cpp.

◆ CalculateXi()

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
c_vector< double, SPACE_DIM > Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::CalculateXi ( const ChastePoint< SPACE_DIM > &  rTestPoint)
Returns
calculated xi at a given point. These are the values in the canonical element, using the the canonical element coordinate system (relative to node 0), corresponding to the test point in this element. For example, if the test point is node 0, xi=(0,0,0); if node 2, then xi=(0,1,0); if the test point is halfway between nodes 1 and 2 on the edge between then, then xi=(0.5,0.5,0); if the test point is the interior, then xi=(a,b,c), where a,b,c>0 and 1-a-b-c > 0.
Parameters
rTestPointreference to the point
Todo:
: #1361 ComputeContainingElements and related methods, and methods called by that down to here, should really take in const c_vector& rather than ChastePoints.
Todo:
#1326 This method shouldn't need a new Jacobian inverse for every Xi

◆ IncludesPoint()

template<unsigned ELEMENT_DIM, unsigned SPACE_DIM>
bool Element< ELEMENT_DIM, SPACE_DIM >::IncludesPoint ( const ChastePoint< SPACE_DIM > &  rTestPoint,
bool  strict = false 
)
Returns
whether a given point lies inside this element.
Parameters
rTestPointreference to the point
strictwhether the point must not be too close to an edge/face (defaults to false)
