Detailed Description

template<>
struct GeometryInfo< 0 >

Topological description of zero dimensional cells, i.e. points. This class might not look too useful but often is if in a certain dimension we would like to enquire information about objects with dimension one lower than the present, e.g. about faces.

This class contains as static members information on vertices and faces of a dim-dimensional grid cell. The interface is the same for all dimensions. If a value is of no use in a low dimensional cell, it is (correctly) set to zero, e.g. max_children_per_face in 1d.

This information should always replace hard-coded numbers of vertices, neighbors and so on, since it can be used dimension independently.

Member Function Documentation

static unsigned int GeometryInfo< 0 >::n_children ( const RefinementCase< 0 > &  refinement_case  )  [static]

Return the number of children of a cell (or face) refined with ref_case. Since we are concerned here with points, the number of children is equal to one.


Member Data Documentation

const unsigned int GeometryInfo< 0 >::max_children_per_cell = 1 [static]

Maximum number of children of a cell, i.e. the number of children of an isotropically refined cell.

If a cell is refined anisotropically, the actual number of children may be less than the value given here.

const unsigned int GeometryInfo< 0 >::faces_per_cell = 0 [static]

Number of faces a cell has.

const unsigned int GeometryInfo< 0 >::max_children_per_face = 0 [static]

Maximum number of children of a refined face, i.e. the number of children of an isotropically refined face.

If a cell is refined anisotropically, the actual number of children may be less than the value given here.

const unsigned int GeometryInfo< 0 >::vertices_per_cell = 1 [static]

Number of vertices a cell has.

const unsigned int GeometryInfo< 0 >::vertices_per_face = 0 [static]

Number of vertices each face has. Since this is not useful in one dimension, we provide a useless number (in the hope that a compiler may warn when it sees constructs like for (i=0; i<vertices_per_face; ++i), at least if i is an unsigned int.

const unsigned int GeometryInfo< 0 >::lines_per_face = 0 [static]

Number of lines each face has.

const unsigned int GeometryInfo< 0 >::quads_per_face = 0 [static]

Number of quads on each face.

const unsigned int GeometryInfo< 0 >::lines_per_cell = 0 [static]

Number of lines of a cell.

const unsigned int GeometryInfo< 0 >::quads_per_cell = 0 [static]

Number of quadrilaterals of a cell.

const unsigned int GeometryInfo< 0 >::hexes_per_cell = 0 [static]

Number of hexahedra of a cell.
