Detailed Description

template<int dim>
class ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim >

This class provides a framework for the finite element polynomial classes for use with finite element classes that are derived from FE_Poly. An object of this type (or rather of a type derived from this class) is stored as a member variable in each object of type FE_Poly.

Deriving classes

Any derived class must provide the most basic properties for shape functions evaluated on the reference cell. This includes, but is not limited to, implementing the evaluate(), name(), and clone() member functions. These functions are necessary to store the most basic information of how the polynomials in the derived class evaluate at a given point on the reference cell. More information on each function can be found in the corresponding function's documentation.

Some classes that derive from this class include

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ScalarPolynomialsBase() [1/3]

template<int dim>
ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim >::ScalarPolynomialsBase ( const unsigned int  deg,
const unsigned int  n_polynomials 
)

Constructor. This takes the degree of the space, deg from the finite element class, and n, the number of polynomials for the space.

Definition at line 26 of file scalar_polynomials_base.cc.

◆ ScalarPolynomialsBase() [2/3]

template<int dim>
ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim >::ScalarPolynomialsBase ( ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim > &&  )
default

Move constructor.

◆ ScalarPolynomialsBase() [3/3]

template<int dim>
ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim >::ScalarPolynomialsBase ( const ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim > &  )
default

Copy constructor.

◆ ~ScalarPolynomialsBase()

template<int dim>
virtual ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim >::~ScalarPolynomialsBase ( )
virtualdefault

Virtual destructor. Makes sure that pointers to this class are deleted properly.

Member Function Documentation

◆ evaluate()

template<int dim>
virtual void ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim >::evaluate ( const Point< dim > &  unit_point,
std::vector< double > &  values,
std::vector< Tensor< 1, dim >> &  grads,
std::vector< Tensor< 2, dim >> &  grad_grads,
std::vector< Tensor< 3, dim >> &  third_derivatives,
std::vector< Tensor< 4, dim >> &  fourth_derivatives 
) const
pure virtual

Compute the value and the derivatives of the polynomials at unit_point.

The size of the vectors must either be zero or equal n(). In the first case, the function will not compute these values.

If you need values or derivatives of all polynomials then use this function, rather than using any of the compute_value, compute_grad or compute_grad_grad functions, see below, in a loop over all tensor product polynomials.

Implemented in AnisotropicPolynomials< dim >, PolynomialSpace< dim >, PolynomialSpace< dim - 1 >, TensorProductPolynomials< dim, PolynomialType >, TensorProductPolynomials< dim, Polynomials::PiecewisePolynomial< double > >, TensorProductPolynomials< dim - 1 >, TensorProductPolynomials< dim >, PolynomialsRannacherTurek< dim >, and PolynomialsAdini< dim >.

◆ n()

template<int dim>
unsigned int ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim >::n
inline

Return the number of polynomials.

Definition at line 164 of file scalar_polynomials_base.h.

◆ degree()

template<int dim>
unsigned int ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim >::degree
inline

Return the highest polynomial degree of polynomials represented by this class. A derived class may override this if its value is different from my_degree.

Definition at line 173 of file scalar_polynomials_base.h.

◆ clone()

template<int dim>
virtual std::unique_ptr<ScalarPolynomialsBase<dim> > ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim >::clone ( ) const
pure virtual

A sort of virtual copy constructor, this function returns a copy of the polynomial space object. Derived classes need to override the function here in this base class and return an object of the same type as the derived class.

Some places in the library, for example the constructors of FE_Poly, need to make copies of polynomial spaces without knowing their exact type. They do so through this function.

Implemented in AnisotropicPolynomials< dim >, PolynomialSpace< dim >, TensorProductPolynomials< dim, PolynomialType >, PolynomialsAdini< dim >, and PolynomialsRannacherTurek< dim >.

◆ name()

template<int dim>
virtual std::string ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim >::name ( ) const
pure virtual

◆ memory_consumption()

template<int dim>
std::size_t ScalarPolynomialsBase< dim >::memory_consumption
virtual

Return an estimate (in bytes) for the memory consumption of this object.

Reimplemented in TensorProductPolynomials< dim, PolynomialType >.

Definition at line 39 of file scalar_polynomials_base.cc.
