In this example we present how to use periodic boundary conditions in deal.II. Periodic boundary conditions are algebraic constraints that typically occur in computations on representative regions of a larger domain that repeat in one or more directions.
An example is the simulation of the electronic structure of photonic crystals, because they have a lattice-like structure and, thus, it often suffices to do the actual computation on only one box of the lattice. To be able to proceed this way one has to assume that the model can be periodically extended to the other boxes; this requires the solution to have a periodic structure.
deal.II provides a number of high level entry points to impose periodic boundary conditions. The general approach to apply periodic boundary conditions consists of three steps (see also the Glossary entry on periodic boundary conditions):
This call loops over all faces of the container dof_handler on the periodic boundaries with boundary indicator b_id1
and b_id2
, respectively. (You can assign these boundary indicators by hand after creating the coarse mesh, see Boundary indicator. Alternatively, you can also let many of the functions in namespace GridGenerator do this for if you specify the "colorize" flag; in that case, these functions will assign different boundary indicators to different parts of the boundary, with the details typically spelled out in the documentation of these functions.)
Concretely, if \(\text{vertices}_{1/2}\) are the vertices of two faces \(\text{face}_{1/2}\), then the function call above will match pairs of faces (and dofs) such that the difference between \(\text{vertices}_2\) and \(matrix\cdot \text{vertices}_1+\text{offset}\) vanishes in every component apart from direction and stores the resulting pairs with associated data in matched_pairs
. (See GridTools::orthogonal_equality() for detailed information about the matching process.)
Consider, for example, the colored unit square \(\Omega=[0,1]^2\) with boundary indicator 0 on the left, 1 on the right, 2 on the bottom and 3 on the top faces. (See the documentation of GridGenerator::hyper_cube() for this convention on how boundary indicators are assigned.) Then,
would yield periodicity constraints such that \(u(0,y)=u(1,y)\) for all \(y\in[0,1]\).
If we instead consider the parallelogram given by the convex hull of \((0,0)\), \((1,1)\), \((1,2)\), \((0,1)\) we can achieve the constraints \(u(0,y)=u(1,y+1)\) by specifying an offset:
In the following, we show how to use the above functions in a more involved example. The task is to enforce rotated periodicity constraints for the velocity component of a Stokes flow.
On a quarter-circle defined by \(\Omega=\{{\bf x}\in(0,1)^2:\|{\bf x}\|\in (0.5,1)\}\) we are going to solve the Stokes problem
\begin{eqnarray*}
-\Delta \; \textbf{u} + \nabla p &=& (\exp(-100\|{\bf x}-(.75,0.1)^T\|^2),0)^T, \\
-\textrm{div}\; \textbf{u}&=&0,\\
\textbf{u}|_{\Gamma_1}&=&{\bf 0},
\end{eqnarray*}
where the boundary \(\Gamma_1\) is defined as \(\Gamma_1 \dealcoloneq \{x\in \partial\Omega: \|x\|\in\{0.5,1\}\}\). For the remaining parts of the boundary we are going to use periodic boundary conditions, i.e.
\begin{align*}
u_x(0,\nu)&=-u_y(\nu,0)&\nu&\in[0,1]\\
u_y(0,\nu)&=u_x(\nu,0)&\nu&\in[0,1].
\end{align*}
In order to implement periodic boundary conditions only two functions have to be modified:
Before we can prescribe periodicity constraints, we need to ensure that cells on opposite sides of the domain but connected by periodic faces are part of the ghost layer if one of them is stored on the local processor. At this point we need to think about how we want to prescribe periodicity. The vertices \(\text{vertices}_2\) of a face on the left boundary should be matched to the vertices \(\text{vertices}_1\) of a face on the lower boundary given by \(\text{vertices}_2=R\cdot
\text{vertices}_1+b\) where the rotation matrix \(R\) and the offset \(b\) are given by
\begin{align*}
R=\begin{pmatrix}
0&1\\-1&0
\end{pmatrix},
\quad
b=\begin{pmatrix}0&0\end{pmatrix}.
\end{align*}
The data structure we are saving the resulting information into is here based on the Triangulation.
After we provided the mesh with the necessary information for the periodicity constraints, we are now able to actual create them. For describing the matching we are using the same approach as before, i.e., the \(\text{vertices}_2\) of a face on the left boundary should be matched to the vertices \(\text{vertices}_1\) of a face on the lower boundary given by \(\text{vertices}_2=R\cdot \text{vertices}_1+b\) where the rotation matrix \(R\) and the offset \(b\) are given by
\begin{align*}
R=\begin{pmatrix}
0&1\\-1&0
\end{pmatrix},
\quad
b=\begin{pmatrix}0&0\end{pmatrix}.
\end{align*}
These two objects not only describe how faces should be matched but also in which sense the solution should be transformed from \(\text{face}_2\) to \(\text{face}_1\).
For setting up the constraints, we first store the periodicity information in an auxiliary object of type std::vector<GridTools::PeriodicFacePair<typename DoFHandler<dim>::cell_iterator>
. The periodic boundaries have the boundary indicators 2 (x=0) and 3 (y=0). All the other parameters we have set up before. In this case the direction does not matter. Due to \(\text{vertices}_2=R\cdot \text{vertices}_1+b\) this is exactly what we want.
Next, we need to provide information on which vector valued components of the solution should be rotated. Since we choose here to just constraint the velocity and this starts at the first component of the solution vector, we simply insert a 0:
After setting up all the information in periodicity_vector all we have to do is to tell make_periodicity_constraints to create the desired constraints.
The created output is not very surprising. We simply see that the solution is periodic with respect to the left and lower boundary:
Without the periodicity constraints we would have ended up with the following solution:
