Detailed Description

template<unsigned DIM>
class PottsElement< DIM >

An element class for use in the PottsMesh class.

The main difference between this and the Element class is that a PottsElement can have a variable number of nodes associated with it and these represent the lattice sites contained in the element. As they are just a collection of sites there is no concept of Element Dimension.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<unsigned DIM>
PottsElement< DIM >::PottsElement ( unsigned  index,
const std::vector< Node< DIM > * > &  rNodes 
)

Constructor.

Parameters
indexglobal index of the element
rNodesvector of Nodes associated with the element

Definition at line 45 of file PottsElement.cpp.

References MutableElement< DIM, DIM >::RegisterWithNodes().

template<unsigned DIM>
PottsElement< DIM >::~PottsElement ( )

Destructor.

Definition at line 52 of file PottsElement.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

template<unsigned DIM>
void PottsElement< DIM >::AddNode ( Node< DIM > *  pNode,
const unsigned rIndex = UINT_MAX 
)

Add node to element. Note that we don't care about ordering in a Potts element so just add it to the end of the mNodes vector.

Parameters
pNodeis a pointer to the new node
rIndexthe location in this->mNodes to place node. Defaults to the end.

Definition at line 57 of file PottsElement.cpp.

References Node< SPACE_DIM >::AddElement().

template<unsigned DIM>
double PottsElement< DIM >::GetAspectRatio ( )

Method to calculate the aspect ratio of the element. Currently only works on 2D

Returns
the aspect ratio

Definition at line 67 of file PottsElement.cpp.

template<unsigned DIM>
template<class Archive >
void PottsElement< DIM >::serialize ( Archive &  archive,
const unsigned int  version 
)
inlineprivate

Serialize the object and its member variables.

Note that serialization of the mesh and cells is handled by load/save_construct_data.

Note also that member data related to writers is not saved - output must be set up again by the caller after a restart.

Parameters
archivethe archive
versionthe current version of this class
