Detailed Description

template<class ELEMENT>
class oomph::FreeStandingFaceElement< ELEMENT >

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Basic-ified FaceElement, without any of the functionality of of actual FaceElements – it's just a surface element of the same geometric type as the FaceGeometry associated with bulk element specified by the template parameter. The element can be used to represent boundaries without actually being attached to a bulk element. Used mainly during unstructured mesh generation.

zeta_nodal()

template<class ELEMENT >

double oomph::FreeStandingFaceElement< ELEMENT >::zeta_nodal ( const unsigned &  n, const unsigned &  k, const unsigned &  i  ) const

inline

In a FaceElement, the "global" intrinsic coordinate of the element along the boundary, when viewed as part of a compound geometric object is specified using the boundary coordinate defined by the mesh. Note: Boundary coordinates will have been set up when creating the underlying mesh, and their values will have been stored at the nodes.

    {
      // Vector in which to hold the intrinsic coordinate
      Vector<double> zeta(this->dim());
 
      // Get the k-th generalised boundary coordinate at node n
      this->node_pt(n)->get_coordinates_on_boundary(
        Boundary_number_in_bulk_mesh, k, zeta);
 
      // Return the individual coordinate
      return zeta[i];
    }
