Detailed Description

A class to represent a unique ID for a cell in a Triangulation. It is returned by cell->id() (i.e., CellAccessor::id()) where cell is assumed to be a cell iterator.

This class stores the index of the coarse cell from which a cell is descendant (or, more specifically, the entry on coarse cell IDs), together with information on how to reach the cell from that coarse cell (i.e., which child index to take on each level of the triangulation when moving from one cell to its children). The important point about this class is that an object of the current class uniquely identifies a cell in triangulation, and it even does so in the context of objects of type parallel::distributed::Triangulation where the local portion of a mesh may not store all cells. For example, the CellId computed for a ghost cell on one processor will be exactly the same as the CellId computed for the very same cell on the processor that actually owns the cell, although the level and index of the iterators pointing to that cell within the triangulation stored on each of the processors may (and in general will) be different. In other words, CellId provides the tool with which it is possible to globally and uniquely identify cells in a parallel triangulation, and consequently makes it possible to exchange, between processors, data tied to individual cells.

Note
How this data is internally represented is not of importance (and not exposed on purpose).

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ binary_type

using CellId::binary_type = std::array<unsigned int, 4>

A type that is used to encode the CellId data in a compact and fast way (e.g. for MPI transfer to other processes). Note that it limits the number of children that can be transferred to 20 in 3d and 30 in 2d (using 2 times 32 bit for storage), a limitation that is identical to the one used by p4est.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ CellId() [1/5]

CellId::CellId ( const types::coarse_cell_id  coarse_cell_id,
const std::vector< std::uint8_t > &  child_indices 
)

Construct a CellId object with a given coarse_cell_id and vector of child indices. child_indices is interpreted identical to the member variable with the same name, namely each entry denotes which child to pick from one refinement level to the next, starting with the coarse cell, until we get to the cell represented by the current object. Therefore, each entry should be a number between 0 and the number of children of a cell in the current space dimension (i.e., GeometryInfo<dim>::max_children_per_cell).

Definition at line 38 of file cell_id.cc.

◆ CellId() [2/5]

CellId::CellId ( const types::coarse_cell_id  coarse_cell_id,
const unsigned int  n_child_indices,
const std::uint8_t *  child_indices 
)

Construct a CellId object with a given coarse_cell_id and array of child indices provided in child_indices. child_indices is interpreted identical to the member variable with the same name, namely each entry denotes which child to pick from one refinement level to the next, starting with the coarse cell, until we get to the cell represented by the current object. Therefore, each entry should be a number between 0 and the number of children of a cell in the current space dimension (i.e., GeometryInfo<dim>::max_children_per_cell). The array child_indices must have at least n_child_indices valid entries.

Definition at line 49 of file cell_id.cc.

◆ CellId() [3/5]

CellId::CellId ( const binary_type binary_representation)

Construct a CellId object with a given binary representation that was previously constructed by CellId::to_binary.

Definition at line 61 of file cell_id.cc.

◆ CellId() [4/5]

CellId::CellId ( const std::string &  string_representation)
explicit

Create a CellId from a string with the same format that is produced by to_string().

Definition at line 100 of file cell_id.cc.

◆ CellId() [5/5]

CellId::CellId ( )

Construct an invalid CellId.

Definition at line 24 of file cell_id.cc.

Member Function Documentation

◆ to_string()

std::string CellId::to_string ( ) const

Return a human-readable string representation of this CellId.

The string returned by this function consists of only ASCII characters and will look, for example, like this: "0_3:006". It can be interpreted by humans as saying "This cell originates from the zeroth coarse mesh cell, lives on refinement level 3, and the path from the coarse mesh cell to its children and grand children is given by 006". But it is not meant to be interpreted in any meaningful way: It's just a way of representing the internal state of the current object using only ASCII characters in the printable range.

Definition at line 156 of file cell_id.cc.

◆ to_binary()

template<int dim>
CellId::binary_type CellId::to_binary ( ) const

Return a compact and fast binary representation of this CellId.

Definition at line 110 of file cell_id.cc.

◆ operator==()

bool CellId::operator== ( const CellId other) const
inline

Compare two CellId objects for equality.

Definition at line 307 of file cell_id.h.

◆ operator!=()

bool CellId::operator!= ( const CellId other) const
inline

Compare two CellIds for inequality.

Definition at line 324 of file cell_id.h.

◆ operator<()

bool CellId::operator< ( const CellId other) const
inline

Compare two CellIds with regard to an ordering. The details of this ordering are unspecified except that the operation provides a total ordering among all cells.

Definition at line 331 of file cell_id.h.

◆ is_parent_of()

bool CellId::is_parent_of ( const CellId other) const
inline

Determine if this cell id is the direct parent of the input cell id.

◆ is_ancestor_of()

bool CellId::is_ancestor_of ( const CellId other) const
inline

Determine if this cell id is the ancestor of the input cell id.

Definition at line 375 of file cell_id.h.

◆ serialize()

template<class Archive >
void CellId::serialize ( Archive &  ar,
const unsigned int  version 
)

Read or write the data of this object to or from a stream for the purpose of serialization using the BOOST serialization library.

Serialization function

Definition at line 267 of file cell_id.h.

◆ get_coarse_cell_id()

types::coarse_cell_id CellId::get_coarse_cell_id ( ) const
inline

Return the id of the coarse cell.

Definition at line 393 of file cell_id.h.

◆ get_child_indices()

ArrayView< const std::uint8_t > CellId::get_child_indices ( ) const
inline

Return a read-only container of integers that denotes which child to pick from one refinement level to the next, starting with the coarse cell, until we get to the cell represented by the current object.

The number of elements in this container corresponds to (level-1) of the current cell.

Member Data Documentation

◆ coarse_cell_id

types::coarse_cell_id CellId::coarse_cell_id

The number of the coarse cell within whose tree the cell represented by the current object is located.

Definition at line 212 of file cell_id.h.

◆ n_child_indices

unsigned int CellId::n_child_indices

The number of child indices stored in the child_indices array. This is equivalent to (level-1) of the current cell.

◆ child_indices

std::array<std::uint8_t, internal::p4est::functions<2>::max_level> CellId::child_indices
private

An array of integers that denotes which child to pick from one refinement level to the next, starting with the coarse cell, until we get to the cell represented by the current object. Only the first n_child_indices entries are used, but we use a statically allocated array instead of a vector of size n_child_indices to speed up creation of this object. If the given dimensions ever become a limitation the array can be extended.
