Detailed Description

template<int dim, int spacedim = dim>
class Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >

This class manages the storage and handling of particles. It provides the data structures necessary to store particles efficiently, accessor functions to iterate over particles and find particles, and algorithms to distribute particles in parallel domains. Note that the class is designed in a similar way as the triangulation class. In particular, we call particles in the domain of the local process local particles, and particles that belong to neighbor processes and live in the ghost cells around the locally owned domain "ghost particles". The class also includes functionality that is similar to the DoFHandler class (it knows which particles live on which cells) and the SolutionTransfer class (it knows how to transfer particles between cells and subdomains).

For examples on how to use this class to track particles, store properties on particles, and let the properties on the particles influence the finite-element solution see step-19, step-68, and step-70.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ParticleHandler() [1/2]

template<int dim, int spacedim>
Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::ParticleHandler

Default constructor.

Definition at line 57 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ ParticleHandler() [2/2]

template<int dim, int spacedim>
Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::ParticleHandler ( const Triangulation< dim, spacedim > &  tria,
const Mapping< dim, spacedim > &  mapping,
const unsigned int  n_properties = 0 
)

Constructor that initializes the particle handler with a given triangulation and mapping. Since particles are stored with respect to their surrounding cells this information is necessary to correctly organize the particle collection. This constructor is equivalent to calling the default constructor and the initialize function.

Definition at line 77 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ ~ParticleHandler()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::~ParticleHandler
virtual

Destructor.

Definition at line 105 of file particle_handler.cc.

Member Function Documentation

◆ initialize()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::initialize ( const Triangulation< dim, spacedim > &  tria,
const Mapping< dim, spacedim > &  mapping,
const unsigned int  n_properties = 0 
)

Initialize the particle handler. This function clears the internal data structures, and sets the triangulation and the mapping to be used.

Definition at line 117 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ copy_from()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::copy_from ( const ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim > &  particle_handler)

Copy the state of particle handler particle_handler into the current object. This will copy all particles and properties and leave this object as an identical copy of particle_handler. Existing particles in this object are deleted. Be aware that this does not copy functions that are connected to the signals of particle_handler, nor does it connect the current object's member functions to triangulation signals, which must be done by the caller if necessary, that is if the particle_handler had connected functions.

This function is expensive as it has to duplicate all data in particle_handler, and insert it into this object, which may be a significant amount of data. However, it can be useful to save the state of a particle collection at a certain point in time and reset this state later under certain conditions, for example if a timestep has to be undone and repeated.

Definition at line 148 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ clear()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::clear

Clear all particle related data but keep the handler initialized.

Definition at line 191 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ clear_particles()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::clear_particles

Only clear particle data, but keep cache information about number of particles. This is useful during reorganization of particle data between processes.

Definition at line 204 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ reserve()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::reserve ( const std::size_t  n_particles)

This function can be used to preemptively reserve memory for particle data. Calling this function before inserting particles will reduce memory allocations and therefore increase the performance. Calling this function is optional; if memory is not already allocated it will be allocated automatically during the insertion. It is recommended to use this function if you know the number of particles that will be inserted, but cannot use one of the collective particle insertion functions.

Parameters
n_particlesNumber of particles to reserve memory for. Note that this is the total number of particles to be stored, not the number of particles to be newly inserted.

Definition at line 226 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ update_cached_numbers()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::update_cached_numbers

Update all internally cached numbers. Note that all functions that modify internal data structures and act on multiple particles will call this function automatically (e.g. insert_particles), while functions that act on single particles will not call this function (e.g. insert_particle). This is done because the update is expensive compared to single operations.

◆ insert_particles() [2/2]

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::insert_particles ( const std::vector< Point< spacedim > > &  positions)

Create and insert a number of particles into the collection of particles. This function takes a list of positions and creates a set of particles at these positions, which are then added to the local particle collection. Note that this function currently uses GridTools::compute_point_locations(), which assumes all positions are within the local part of the triangulation. If one of them is not in the local domain this function will throw an exception.

Definition at line 699 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ insert_global_particles() [1/2]

template<int dim, int spacedim>
std::map< unsigned int, IndexSet > Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::insert_global_particles ( const std::vector< Point< spacedim > > &  positions,
const std::vector< std::vector< BoundingBox< spacedim > > > &  global_bounding_boxes,
const std::vector< std::vector< double > > &  properties = {},
const std::vector< types::particle_index > &  ids = {} 
)

Create and insert a number of particles into the collection of particles. This function takes a list of positions and creates a set of particles at these positions, which are then distributed and added to the local particle collection of a processor. Note that this function uses GridTools::distributed_compute_point_locations(). Consequently, it can require intense communications between the processors. This function is used in step-70.

This function figures out what mpi process owns the points that do not fall within the locally owned part of the triangulation, it sends to that process the points passed to this function on this process, and receives the points that fall within the locally owned cells of the triangulation from whoever received them as input.

In order to keep track of what mpi process received what points, a map from mpi process to IndexSet is returned by the function. This IndexSet contains the local indices of the points that were passed to this function on the calling mpi process, and that falls within the part of triangulation owned by this mpi process.

The ids of the resulting particles are assigned from the optional argument ids. If the vector of ids is empty, then the ids are computed automatically from the get_next_free_particle_index() onward. For example, if the method get_next_free_particle_index() returns n0, calling this function with two MPI processes each adding n1 and n2 particles will result in the n1 particles added by process zero having ids equal to [n0,n0+n1), and the n2 particles added by process one having ids [n0+n1, n0+n1+n2).

Parameters
[in]positionsA vector of points that do not need to be on the local processor, but have to be in the triangulation that is associated with this ParticleHandler object.
[in]global_bounding_boxesA vector of vectors of bounding boxes. The bounding boxes global_bboxes[rk] describe which part of the mesh is locally owned by the mpi process with rank rk. The local description can be obtained from GridTools::compute_mesh_predicate_bounding_box(), and the global one can be obtained by passing the local ones to Utilities::MPI::all_gather().
[in]properties(Optional) A vector of vector of properties associated with each local point. The size of the vector should be either zero (no properties will be transferred nor attached to the generated particles) or it should be a vector of positions.size() vectors of size n_properties_per_particle(). Notice that this function call will transfer the properties from the local mpi process to the final mpi process that will own each of the particles, and it may therefore be communication intensive.
[in]ids(Optional) A vector of ids to associate to each particle. If the vector is empty, the ids are assigned as a continuous range from the first available index, as documented above. If the vector is not empty, then its size must match the size of the positions vector.
Returns
A map from owner to IndexSet, that contains the local indices of the points that were passed to this function on the calling mpi process, and that falls within the part of triangulation owned by this mpi process.

Definition at line 763 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ insert_global_particles() [2/2]

template<int dim, int spacedim>
std::map< unsigned int, IndexSet > Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::insert_global_particles ( const std::vector< Particle< dim, spacedim > > &  particles,
const std::vector< std::vector< BoundingBox< spacedim > > > &  global_bounding_boxes 
)

Insert a number of particles into the collection of particles. This function takes a list of particles for which we don't know the associated cell iterator, and distributes them to the correct local particle collection of a processor, by unpacking the locations, figuring out where to send the particles by calling GridTools::distributed_compute_point_locations(), and sending the particles to the corresponding process.

In order to keep track of what mpi process received what particles, a map from mpi process to IndexSet is returned by the function. This IndexSet contains the local indices of the particles that were passed to this function on the calling mpi process, and that falls within the part of the triangulation owned by this mpi process.

Parameters
[in]particlesA vector of particles that do not need to be on the local processor.
[in]global_bounding_boxesA vector of vectors of bounding boxes. The bounding boxes global_bboxes[rk] describe which part of the mesh is locally owned by the mpi process with rank rk. The local description can be obtained from GridTools::compute_mesh_predicate_bounding_box(), and the global one can be obtained by passing the local ones to Utilities::MPI::all_gather().
Returns
A map from owner to IndexSet, that contains the local indices of the points that were passed to this function on the calling mpi process, and that falls within the part of triangulation owned by this mpi process.

◆ set_particle_positions() [1/3]

template<int dim, int spacedim>
template<class VectorType >
std::enable_if< std::is_convertible< VectorType *, Function< spacedim > * >::value==false >::type Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::set_particle_positions ( const VectorType &  input_vector,
const bool  displace_particles = true 
)
inline

Set the position of the particles by using the values contained in the vector input_vector.

Template Parameters
VectorTypeAny of the parallel distributed vectors supported by the library.

The vector input_vector should have read access to the indices created by extracting the locally relevant ids with locally_owned_particle_ids(), and taking its tensor product with the index set representing the range [0, spacedim), i.e.:

IndexSet ids = particle_handler.locally_owned_particle_ids().
tensor_product(complete_index_set(spacedim));
complete_index_set
IndexSet complete_index_set(const IndexSet::size_type N)
Definition: index_set.h:1014

The position of the particle with global index id is read from spacedim consecutive entries starting from input_vector[id*spacedim].

Notice that it is not necessary that the input_vector owns those indices, however it has to have read access to them (i.e., it can be a distributed vector with ghost entries).

If the argument displace_particles is set to false, then the new position taken from the values contained in input_vector, replacing the previously stored particle position. By default, the particles are displaced by the amount contained in the input_vector, i.e., the contents of the vector are considered offsets that are added to the previous position.

After setting the new position, this function calls internally the method sort_particles_into_subdomains_and_cells(). You should make sure you satisfy the requirements of that function.

◆ set_particle_positions() [2/3]

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::set_particle_positions ( const std::vector< Point< spacedim > > &  new_positions,
const bool  displace_particles = true 
)

Set the position of the particles within the particle handler using a vector of points. The new set of point defined by the vector has to be sufficiently close to the original one to ensure that the sort_particles_into_subdomains_and_cells() function manages to find the new cells in which the particles belong.

Points are numbered in the same way they are traversed locally by the ParticleHandler. A typical way to use this method, is to first call the get_particle_positions() function, and then modify the resulting vector.

Parameters
[in]new_positionsA vector of points of dimension particle_handler.n_locally_owned_particles()
[in]displace_particlesWhen true, this function adds the value of the vector of points to the current position of the particle, thus displacing them by the amount given by the function. When false, the position of the particle is replaced by the value in the vector.

◆ set_particle_positions() [3/3]

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::set_particle_positions ( const Function< spacedim > &  function,
const bool  displace_particles = true 
)

Set the position of the particles within the particle handler using a function with spacedim components. The new set of point defined by the function has to be sufficiently close to the original one to ensure that the sort_particles_into_subdomains_and_cells algorithm manages to find the new cells in which the particles belong.

The function is evaluated at the current location of the particles.

Parameters
[in]functionA function that has n_components==spacedim that describes either the displacement or the new position of the particles as a function of the current location of the particle.
[in]displace_particlesWhen true, this function adds the results of the function to the current position of the particle, thus displacing them by the amount given by the function. When false, the position of the particle is replaced by the value of the function.

◆ get_particle_positions() [1/2]

template<int dim, int spacedim>
template<class VectorType >
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::get_particle_positions ( VectorType &  output_vector,
const bool  add_to_output_vector = false 
)
inline

Read the position of the particles and store them into the distributed vector output_vector. By default the output_vector is overwritten by this operation, but you can add to its entries by setting add_to_output_vector to true.

Template Parameters
VectorTypeAny of the parallel distributed vectors supported by the library.

This is the reverse operation of the set_particle_positions() function. The position of the particle with global index id is written to spacedim consecutive entries starting from output_vector[id*spacedim].

Notice that, if you use a distributed vector type, it is not necessary for the output_vector to own the entries corresponding to the indices that will be written. However you should keep in mind that this requires a global communication to distribute the entries above to their respective owners.

Parameters
[in,out]output_vectorA parallel distributed vector containing the positions of the particles, or updated with the positions of the particles.
[in]add_to_output_vectorControl if the function should set the entries of the output_vector or if should add to them.

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::get_particle_positions ( std::vector< Point< spacedim > > &  positions,
const bool  add_to_output_vector = false 
)

Gather the position of the particles within the particle handler in a vector of points. The order of the points is the same on would obtain by iterating over all (local) particles, and querying their locations.

Parameters
[in,out]positionsA vector preallocated at size particle_handler.n_locally_owned_articles and whose points will become the positions of the locally owned particles
[in]add_to_output_vectorWhen true, the value of the point of the particles is added to the positions vector. When false, the value of the points in the positions vector are replaced by the position of the particles.

◆ register_additional_store_load_functions()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::register_additional_store_load_functions ( const std::function< std::size_t()> &  size_callback,
const std::function< void *(const particle_iterator &, void *)> &  store_callback,
const std::function< const void *(const particle_iterator &, const void *)> &  load_callback 
)

This function allows to register three additional functions that are called every time a particle is transferred to another process (i.e. during sorting into cells, during ghost particle transfer, or during serialization of all particles).

Parameters
size_callbackA function that is called when serializing particle data. The function gets no arguments and is expected to return the size of the additional data that is serialized per particle. Note that this currently implies the data size has to be the same for every particle.
store_callbackA function that is called once per particle when serializing particle data. Arguments to the function are a particle iterator that identifies the current particle and a void pointer that points to a data block of size size_callback() in which the function can store additional data. The function is expected to return a void pointer pointing to a position right after its data block.
load_callbackA function that is called once per particle when deserializing particle data. Arguments to the function are a particle iterator that identifies the current particle and a void pointer that points to a data block of size size_callback() in which additional data was stored by the store_callback function. The function is expected to return a void pointer pointing to a position right after its data block.

Definition at line 2039 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ n_global_particles()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
types::particle_index Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::n_global_particles

Definition at line 1028 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ n_global_max_particles_per_cell()

template<int dim, int spacedim>

◆ get_next_free_particle_index()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
types::particle_index Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::get_next_free_particle_index

Return the next free particle index in the global set of particles the last time the update_cached_numbers() function was called.

Definition at line 1064 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ locally_relevant_ids()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
IndexSet Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::locally_relevant_ids
inline

Extract an IndexSet with global dimensions equal to get_next_free_particle_index(), containing the locally owned particle indices.

This function can be used to construct distributed vectors and matrices to manipulate particles using linear algebra operations.

Notice that it is the user's responsibility to guarantee that particle indices are unique, and no check is performed to verify that this is the case, nor that the union of all IndexSet objects on each mpi process is complete.

Returns
An IndexSet of size get_next_free_particle_index(), containing n_locally_owned_particle() indices.
Deprecated:
Use locally_owned_particle_ids() instead.

Definition at line 1410 of file particle_handler.h.

◆ locally_owned_particle_ids()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
IndexSet Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::locally_owned_particle_ids

Extract an IndexSet with global dimensions equal to get_next_free_particle_index(), containing the locally owned particle indices.

This function can be used to construct distributed vectors and matrices to manipulate particles using linear algebra operations.

Notice that it is the user's responsibility to guarantee that particle indices are unique, and no check is performed to verify that this is the case, nor that the union of all IndexSet objects on each mpi process is complete.

◆ get_max_local_particle_index()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
types::particle_index Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::get_max_local_particle_index

Return one past the largest local index (in MPI-local index space) returned by ParticleAccessor::get_local_index(). This number can be larger than locally_owned_particle_ids().n_elements(), because local indices are not necessarily forming a contiguous range and can contain gaps in the range 0 to get_max_local_particle_index(). As a consequence, the number is not updated upon calls to remove_particle() or similar functions, and refreshed only as new particles get added or in sort_particles_into_subdomains_and_cells().

This function is appropriate for resizing vectors working with ParticleAccessor::get_local_index().

Definition at line 1089 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ get_property_pool()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
PropertyPool< dim, spacedim > & Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::get_property_pool

Return a reference to the property pool that owns all particle properties, and organizes them physically.

Definition at line 1169 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ sort_particles_into_subdomains_and_cells()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::sort_particles_into_subdomains_and_cells

Find and update the cells containing each particle for all locally owned particles. If particles moved out of the local subdomain they will be sent to their new process and inserted there. After this function call every particle is either on its current process and in its current cell, or deleted (if it could not find its new process or cell).

The user may attach a function to the signal Particles::ParticleHandler::Signals::particle_lost(). The signal is triggered whenever a particle is deleted, and the connected functions are called passing an iterator to the particle in question, and its last known cell association.

◆ exchange_ghost_particles()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::exchange_ghost_particles ( const bool  enable_ghost_cache = false)

Definition at line 1503 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ update_ghost_particles()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::update_ghost_particles

Update all particles that live in cells that are ghost cells to other processes. In this context, update means to update the location and the properties of the ghost particles assuming that the ghost particles have not changed cells. Consequently, this will not update the reference location of the particles.

Definition at line 1597 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ prepare_for_coarsening_and_refinement()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::prepare_for_coarsening_and_refinement

This function prepares the particle handler for a coarsening and refinement cycle, by storing the necessary information to transfer particles to their new cells. The implementation depends on the triangulation type that is connected to the particle handler and differs between shared and distributed triangulations. This function should be used like the corresponding function with the same name in the SolutionTransfer() class.

Definition at line 2123 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ unpack_after_coarsening_and_refinement()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::unpack_after_coarsening_and_refinement

This function unpacks the particle data after a coarsening and refinement cycle, by reading the necessary information to transfer particles to their new cells. This function should be used like the SolutionTransfer::interpolate() function after mesh refinement has finished. Note that this function requires a working mapping, i.e. if you use a mapping class that requires setup after a mesh refinement (e.g. MappingQCache(), or MappingEulerian()), the mapping has to be ready before you can call this function.

Note
It is important to note, that if you do not call this function after a refinement/coarsening operation (and a repartitioning operation in a distributed triangulation) and the particle handler contained particles before, the particle handler will not be usable any more. Not calling this function after refinement would be similar to trying to access a solution vector after mesh refinement without first using a SolutionTransfer class to transfer the vector to the new mesh.

Definition at line 2184 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ prepare_for_serialization()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::prepare_for_serialization

This function prepares the particle handler for serialization. This needs to be done before calling Triangulation::save(). This function should be used like the corresponding function with the same name in the SolutionTransfer() class.

Note
It is important to note, that if you do not call this function before a serialization operation in a distributed triangulation, the particles will not be serialized, and therefore will disappear after deserialization.

Definition at line 2132 of file particle_handler.cc.

◆ deserialize()

template<int dim, int spacedim>
void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::deserialize

Execute the deserialization of the particle data. This needs to be done after calling Triangulation::load(). The data must have been stored before the serialization of the triangulation using the prepare_for_serialization() function. This function should be used like the corresponding function with the same name in the SolutionTransfer class.

void Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::reset_particle_container ( particle_container &  particles)
private

Delete all entries in the particles container, and then set the three anchor entries used to distinguish between owned and ghost cells: We add one item to the front, one between and one as the last element in the particle container to be able to iterate across particles without if statements, solely relying on ParticleAccessor::operator== to terminate operations, and using the cell_iterator inside the particle container to check for valid states.

private

Transfer particles that have crossed subdomain boundaries to other processors. All received particles and their new cells will be appended to the class variable particles at the right slot.

Parameters
[in]particles_to_sendAll particles that should be sent and their new subdomain_ids are in this map.
[in]new_cells_for_particlesOptional vector of cell iterators with the same structure as particles_to_send. If this parameter is given it should contain the cell iterator for every particle to be send in which the particle belongs. This parameter is necessary if the cell information of the particle iterator is outdated (e.g. after particle movement).
[in]enable_cacheOptional bool that enables updating the ghost particles without rebuilding them from scratch by building a cache of type GhostParticlePartitioner, which stores the necessary information to update the ghost particles. Once this cache is built, the ghost particles can be updated by a call to send_recv_particles_properties_and_location().

private

Transfer ghost particles' position and properties assuming that the particles have not changed cells. This routine uses the GhostParticlePartitioner as a caching structure to know which particles are ghost to other processes, and where they need to be sent. It inherently assumes that particles cannot have changed cell, and writes the result back to the particles member variable.

This cache is automatically updated when the triangulation has changed. This cache is stored within a unique pointer because the particle handler has a constructor that enables it to be constructed without a triangulation. The cache does not have such a constructor.

◆ ghost_particles_cache

template<int dim, int spacedim = dim>
internal::GhostParticlePartitioner<dim, spacedim> Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::ghost_particles_cache
private

Cache structure used to store the elements which are required to exchange the particle information (location and properties) across processors in order to update the ghost particles. This structure is only used to update the ghost particles.

◆ tria_listeners

template<int dim, int spacedim = dim>
std::vector<boost::signals2::connection> Particles::ParticleHandler< dim, spacedim >::tria_listeners
private

A list of connections with which this object connects to the triangulation to get information about when the triangulation changes.
