Detailed Description

The MeshDomain class provides geometrical information concerning the Mesh. It is called during surface meshes optimization to figure out the surface normal, how to snap vertices back to the surface, etc... .

virtual void MBMesquite::MeshDomain::closest_point ( Mesh::VertexHandle  handle,
const Vector3D position,
Vector3D closest,
Vector3D normal,
MsqError err 
) const [pure virtual]

evaluate closest point and normal

Given a position in space, return the closest position in the domain and the domain normal at that point.

Parameters:
entity_handleEvaluate the subset of the domain contianing this entity
positionInput position for which to evaluate
closestClosest position in the domain.
normalDomain normal at the location of 'closest'

Implemented in MBMesquite::DomainClassifier, MBMesquite::CircleDomain, MBMesquite::MsqIGeom, MBMesquite::PlanarDomain, MBMesquite::LineDomain, MBMesquite::XYRectangle, MBMesquite::ConicDomain, MBMesquite::SphericalDomain, MBMesquite::CylinderDomain, MBMesquite::XYPlanarDomain, MBMesquite::PointDomain, ParaboloidDomain, and MBMesquite::MsqIRel.

virtual void MBMesquite::MeshDomain::domain_DoF ( const Mesh::EntityHandle handle_array,
unsigned short *  dof_array,
size_t  num_handles,
MsqError err 
) const [pure virtual]

Get degrees of freedom in vertex movement.

Given a vertex, return how the domain constrains the location of that vertex as the number of degrees of freedom in the motion of the vertex. If the domain is a geometric domain, the degrees of freedom for a vertex is the dimension of the geometric entity the vertex is constrained to lie on (e.g. point = 0, curve = 1, surface = 2, volume = 3.)

Implemented in ParaboloidDomain.

virtual void MBMesquite::MeshDomain::vertex_normal_at ( Mesh::VertexHandle  entity_handle,
Vector3D coordinate 
) const [pure virtual]

Returns the normal of the domain to which "entity_handle" is constrained. For non-planar surfaces, the normal is calculated at the point on the domain that is closest to the passed in value of "coordinate". If the domain does not have a normal, or the normal cannot be determined, "coordinate" is set to (0,0,0). Otherwise, "coordinate" is set to the domain's normal at the appropriate point. In summary, the handle determines the domain. The coordinate determines the point of interest on that domain.

) const [pure virtual]

evaluate surface normals

Returns normals for a domain.

Parameters:
handlesThe domain evaluated is the one in which this mesh entity is constrained.
coordinatesAs input, a list of positions at which to evaluate the domain. As output, the resulting domain normals.
countThe length of the coordinates array.

Implemented in MBMesquite::DomainClassifier, MBMesquite::CircleDomain, MBMesquite::MsqIGeom, MBMesquite::PlanarDomain, MBMesquite::LineDomain, MBMesquite::XYRectangle, MBMesquite::ConicDomain, MBMesquite::SphericalDomain, ParaboloidDomain, MBMesquite::CylinderDomain, MBMesquite::XYPlanarDomain, MBMesquite::PointDomain, and MBMesquite::MsqIRel.
