Member Function Documentation
| double StreeterFibreGenerator< SPACE_DIM >::GetAveragedThicknessLocalNode | ( | const unsigned | nodeIndex, | |
| const std::vector< double > & | wallThickness | |||
| ) | const [inline, private] |
Compute the wallthickness of a given node based on a neighbourhood average of its thickness and of those in the forward star.
- Parameters:
-
nodeIndex The index of the node in question wallThickness vector of thickness of all nodes in node index order
- Returns:
- Neighbourhood average thickness (will return 0 if the node is not local to this process)

| double StreeterFibreGenerator< SPACE_DIM >::GetFibreMaxAngle | ( | const c_vector< HeartRegionType, SPACE_DIM+1 > & | nodesRegionsForElement | ) | const [inline, private] |
R is the maximum angle between the fibre and the v axis (heart region dependant)
- Parameters:
-
nodesRegionsForElement is a small vector containing the region tags of the element's nodes
- Returns:
- Pi/4 (if the element is in RV), Pi/3 otherwise

Generates an orthotropic fibre orientation model of the ventricular mesh provided. Assumes that the base-apex axis is x. Based on Streeter 1969 and Potse 2006
File format: The first line indicates the number of elements. Each of the following lines contain SPACE_DIM vectors of SPACE_DIM elements for the direction of the myofibre, the transverse to it in the plane of the myocite laminae and the normal to this laminae.
- Parameters:
-
outputDirectory Output directory fibreOrientationFile Output file logInfo Tells the method to output extra debug info. To be eliminated once it's fully tested

| void StreeterFibreGenerator< SPACE_DIM >::CheckVentricleAlignment | ( | ) | [inline] |
Check that the two ventricles are separated in the y-axis The heart ought to have x: apex to base y: right to left z: front to back
Note this method only covers some of the possible missalignments of the mesh
