NAME
field - piecewise polynomial finite element function (rheolef-7.2)
DESCRIPTION
This class represents a piecewise polynomial finite element function. Since this function
spans onto a finite dimensional basis, it simply stores its coefficients on this basis:
these coefficients are called the degrees of freedom (see space(2)).
INTERPOLATION
For any function u, its interpolation on the finite element space Xh as a field uh in Xh
expresses simply via the interpolate(3) function:
Float u (const point& x) { return exp(x[0]*x[1]); }
...
field uh = interpolate (Xh, u);
LINEAR ALGEBRA
Linear algebra, such as uh+vh, uh-vh and lambda*uh + mu*vh, where lambda and mu are of
type Float, are supported. The duality product between two fields lh and uh writes simply
dual(lh,uh). As we consider finite dimensional spaces, this duality product coincides with
the usual Euclidean dot product in IR^dim(Xh). The application of the a bilinear form(2)
writes a(uh,vh) and is equivalent to dual(m*uh,vh).
COMMON ACCESSORS
For convenience, uh.max(), uh.min() and uh.max_abs() returns respectively the maximum,
minimum and maximum of the absolute value of the degrees of freedom.
NON-LINEAR ALGEBRA
Non-linear operations, such as sqrt(uh) or 1/uh are also available. Note that non-linear
operations do not returns in general piecewise polynomials: the value returned by sqrt(uh)
may be filtered by interpolate(3) function:
field vh = interpolate (Xh, sqrt(uh));
Also, the multiplication uh*vh and the division uh/vh returns a result that is not in the
same discrete finite element space: its result also may be filtered by interpolate(3)`:
field wh = interpolate(Xh, uh*vh);
All standard unary and binary math functions abs, cos, sin... are extended to scalar
fields. Also sqr(uh), the square of a field, and min(uh,vh), max(uh,vh) are provided.
Binary functions can be used also with a scalar, as in
field vh = interpolate (Xh, max (abs(uh), 0));
field wh = interpolate (Xh, pow (abs(uh), 1./3));
For applying a user-provided function to a field, please see the compose(3) function.
ACCESS BY DOMAIN
The restriction of a field to a geometric domain, says 'boundary' writes uh['boundary']:
it represents the trace of the field on the boundary:
space Xh (omega, "P1");
uh["boundary"] = 0;
A possible alternative uses a geo(2) domain as index:
geo boundary = omega["boundary"];
uh[boundary] = 0;
MULTI-VALUED FIELDS
A vector-valued field contains several components, as:
space Xh (omega, "P2", "vector");
field uh (Xh);
Conversely, for a tensor-valued field:
space Th (omega, "P1d", "tensor");
field sigma_h (Xh);
GENERAL SPACE PRODUCT INTERFACE
A general multi-component field writes:
space Th (omega, "P1d", "tensor");
space Vh (omega, "P2", "vector");
space Qh (omega, "P1");
space Xh = Th*Vh*Qh;
field xh (Xh);
field tau_h = xh[0]; // tensor-valued
field uh = xh[1]; // vector-valued
field qh = xh[2]; // scalar
Remark the hierarchical multi-component field structure: the first-component is tensor-
valued and the second-one is vector-valued. There is no limitation upon the hierarchical
number of levels in use: the hierarchy is not flattened.
The xh.size() returns the number of field components. When the field is scalar, it returns
zero by convention, and xh[0] is undefined.
DIRECT ACCESS TO DEGREES-OF-FREEDOM
The field class provides a STL-like container interface for accessing the degrees-of-
freedom (dofs) of a finite element field uh. The number of dofs is uh.ndof() and any dof
can be accessed via uh.dof(idof). In a distributed memory environment, a non-local dof at
the partition interface can be obtain via uh.dis_dof(dis_idof) where dis_idof is the
(global) distributed index assoiated to the distribution uh.ownership(). See
distributor(4).
For better performances, a STL-like iterator interface is available, with uh.begin_dof()
and uh.end_dof() returns iterators to the dofs on the current processor.
REPRESENTATION
The degrees of freedom (see space(2)) are splited between unknowns and blocked, i.e.
uh=[uh.u,uh.b] for any field uh in Xh. Access to these vectors is allowed via some
accessors: a read-only one, as uh.u() and uh.b(), and a read-and-write one, as uh.set_u()
and uh.set_b(), see vec(4).
Note that blocked and unknown degrees of freedom could also be elegantly set by using a
domain name indexation (see geo(2)):
geo omega ("circle");
space Xh (omega, "P1");
Xh.block ("boundary");
field uh (Xh);
uh ["boundary"] = 0;

typedef field_basic<Float> field;
