Detailed Description

DataOutFilter provides a way to remove redundant vertices and values generated by the deal.II output. By default, DataOutBase and the classes that build on it output data at each vertex of each cell. This means that data is output multiple times for each vertex of the mesh, once for each cell adjacent to the vertex. The purpose of this scheme is to support output of discontinuous quantities, either because the finite element space is discontinuous or because the quantity that is output is computed from a solution field and is discontinuous across faces (for example for quantities computed via DataPostprocessor; typical cases where output quantities are discontinuous are when a postprocessor computes a quantity using the gradient of the solution, which is generally discontinuous even if the element itself is continuous). Other cases where the output is discontinuous are if the data to be output is not a finite element field but, for example, results from a class such as MatrixOut.

This class is an attempt to rein in the amount of data that is written. If the fields that are written to files are indeed discontinuous, the only way to faithfully represent them is indeed to write multiple values for each vertex (this is typically done by creating multiple logical nodes in the output file, all of which have the same physical location; data is then associated to nodes, allowing to have multiple values associated with the same location). However, for fine meshes, one may not necessarily be interested in an exact representation of output fields that will likely only have small discontinuities. Rather, it may be sufficient to just output one value per vertex, which may be chosen arbitrarily from among those that are defined at this vertex, i.e., chosen arbitrarily from any of the adjacent cells.

Member Function Documentation

write_point()

template<int dim>

void DataOutBase::DataOutFilter::write_point	(	const unsigned int	index,
		const Point< dim > &	p
	)

Write a point with the specified index into the filtered data set. If the point already exists and we are filtering redundant values, the provided index will internally refer to another recorded point.

Definition at line 440 of file data_out_base.cc.

write_cell()

template<int dim>

void DataOutBase::DataOutFilter::write_cell	(	const unsigned int	index,
		const unsigned int	start,
		const std::array< unsigned int, dim > &	offsets
	)

Record a deal.II cell in the internal reordered format.

Definition at line 573 of file data_out_base.cc.

write_cell_single()

void DataOutBase::DataOutFilter::write_cell_single	(	const unsigned int	index,
		const unsigned int	start,
		const unsigned int	n_points,
		const ReferenceCell &	reference_cell
	)

Record a single deal.II cell without subdivisions (e.g. simplex) in the internal reordered format.

Definition at line 636 of file data_out_base.cc.

write_data_set()

void DataOutBase::DataOutFilter::write_data_set	(	const std::string &	name,
		const unsigned int	dimension,
		const unsigned int	set_num,
		const Table< 2, double > &	data_vectors
	)

Filter and record a data set. If there are multiple values at a given vertex and redundant values are being removed, one is arbitrarily chosen as the recorded value. In the future this can be expanded to average/min/max multiple values at a given vertex.

Definition at line 657 of file data_out_base.cc.

fill_node_data()

void DataOutBase::DataOutFilter::fill_node_data

Resize and fill a vector with all the filtered node vertex points, for output to a file.

fill_cell_data()

void DataOutBase::DataOutFilter::fill_cell_data	(	const unsigned int	local_node_offset,

Resize and fill a vector with all the filtered cell vertex indices, for output to a file.
