Detailed Description

A namespace in which we declare typedefs for types used in deal.II, as well as special values for these types.

Typedef Documentation

◆ subdomain_id

typedef unsigned int types::subdomain_id

The type used to denote subdomain_ids of cells.

See the glossary for more information.

There is a special value, numbers::invalid_subdomain_id that is used to indicate an invalid value of this type.

Definition at line 42 of file types.h.

◆ global_vertex_index

typedef unsigned long long int types::global_vertex_index

The type used for global indices of vertices.

Definition at line 47 of file types.h.

◆ global_dof_index

typedef unsigned int types::global_dof_index

The type used for global indices of degrees of freedom. While in sequential computations the 4 billion indices of 32-bit unsigned integers is plenty, parallel computations using the parallel::distributed::Triangulation class can overflow this number and we need a bigger index space.

The data type always indicates an unsigned integer type.

Definition at line 88 of file types.h.

◆ boundary_id

typedef unsigned int types::boundary_id

The type used to denote boundary indicators associated with every piece of the boundary and, in the case of meshes that describe manifolds in higher dimensions, associated with every cell.

There is a special value, numbers::internal_face_boundary_id that is used to indicate an invalid value of this type and that is used as the boundary indicator for faces that are in the interior of the domain and therefore not part of any addressable boundary component.

See also: Glossary entry on boundary indicators

Definition at line 110 of file types.h.

◆ manifold_id

typedef unsigned int types::manifold_id

The type used to denote manifold indicators associated with every object of the mesh.

There is a special value, numbers::flat_manifold_id that is used to indicate the standard cartesian manifold.

See also: Glossary entry on manifold indicators

Definition at line 122 of file types.h.

◆ material_id

typedef unsigned int types::material_id

The type used to denote material indicators associated with every cell.

There is a special value, numbers::invalid_material_id that is used to indicate an invalid value of this type.

See also: Glossary entry on material indicators

Definition at line 133 of file types.h.

◆ blas_int

typedef int types::blas_int

Integer type in BLAS.

Definition at line 36 of file lapack_support.h.

◆ particle_index

typedef unsigned int types::particle_index

The type used for indices of particles. While in sequential computations the 4 billion indices of 32-bit unsigned integers is plenty, parallel computations using hundreds of processes can overflow this number and we need a bigger index space. We here utilize the same build variable that controls the dof indices because the number of degrees of freedom and the number of particles are typically on the same order of magnitude.
