Detailed Description

template<int dim>
class PolynomialsRT_Bubbles< dim >

This class implements the H^div-conforming, vector-valued enhanced Raviart-Thomas polynomials.

Similarly to the classical Raviart-Thomas space, the enhanced Raviart-Thomas polynomials are constructed such that the divergence is in the tensor product polynomial space Q_k-1.

This space is of the form V_k = RT_k-1 + B_k, where B_k is defined as follows:

In 2d:

\begin{align*} B_k^1(E) = \text{span}\left\{x^{a_1-1} y^{a_2}\begin{pmatrix} (a_2+1) x \\ -a_1 y \end{pmatrix}\text{ : } a_2=k \right\} \\ B_k^2(E) = \text{span}\left\{x^{b_1} y^{b_2-1}\begin{pmatrix} -b_2 x \\ (b_1+1) y \end{pmatrix}\text{ : } b_1=k \right\} \end{align*}

In 3d:

\begin{align*} B_k^1(E) = \text{span}\left\{x^{a_1-1} y^{a_2} z^{a_3}\begin{pmatrix} (a_2+a_3+2) x \\ -a_1 y \\ -a_1 z \end{pmatrix}\text{ : } a_2=k \text{ or } a_3=k \right\},\\ B_k^2(E) = \text{span}\left\{x^{b_1} y^{b_2-1} z^{b_3}\begin{pmatrix} -b_2 x \\ (b_1+b_3+2) y \\ -b_2 z \end{pmatrix}\text{ : } b_1=k \text{ or } b_3=k \right\},\\ B_k^3(E) = \text{span}\left\{x^{c_1}y^{c_2}z^{c_3-1}\begin{pmatrix} -c_3 x \\ -c_3y \\ (c_1+c_2+2)z \end{pmatrix}\text{ : } c_1=k \text{ or } c_2=k \right\}, \end{align*}

where \(0 \le a_1, a_2, a_3 \le k\).

Note

Unlike the classical Raviart-Thomas space, the lowest order for the enhanced space is 1, similarly to the Brezzi-Douglas-Marini (BDM) polynomial space.

The total dimension of the space dim(V_k) = d*(k+1)^d, where d is the space dimension. This allows to associate shape functions with the Gauss-Lobatto quadrature points as shown in the figures below.

Left - \(2d,\,k=3\), right - \(3d,\,k=2\).

Member Function Documentation

evaluate()

template<int dim>

void PolynomialsRT_Bubbles< dim >::evaluate ( const Point< dim > &  unit_point, std::vector< Tensor< 1, dim > > &  values, std::vector< Tensor< 2, dim > > &  grads, std::vector< Tensor< 3, dim > > &  grad_grads, std::vector< Tensor< 4, dim > > &  third_derivatives, std::vector< Tensor< 5, dim > > &  fourth_derivatives  ) const

overridevirtual

Computes the value and the first and second derivatives of each RT_bubbles polynomial 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.

Implements TensorPolynomialsBase< dim >.

Definition at line 43 of file polynomials_rt_bubbles.cc.

name()

template<int dim>

std::string PolynomialsRT_Bubbles< dim >::name ( ) const

inlineoverridevirtual

Return the name of the space, which is RT_Bubbles.

Definition at line 150 of file polynomials_rt_bubbles.h.

n_polynomials()

template<int dim>

unsigned int PolynomialsRT_Bubbles< dim >::n_polynomials ( const unsigned int  degree )

static

Return the number of polynomials in the space RT_Bubbles(degree) without requiring to build an object of PolynomialsRT-Bubbles. This is required by the FiniteElement classes.

Definition at line 841 of file polynomials_rt_bubbles.cc.

clone()

template<int dim>

std::unique_ptr< TensorPolynomialsBase< dim > > PolynomialsRT_Bubbles< dim >::clone ( ) const

overridevirtual

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_PolyTensor, need to make copies of polynomial spaces without knowing their exact type. They do so through this function.

Implements TensorPolynomialsBase< dim >.

n()

template<int dim>

unsigned int TensorPolynomialsBase< dim >::n ( ) const

Return the number of polynomials.

degree()

template<int dim>

unsigned int TensorPolynomialsBase< dim >::degree ( ) const

inlineinherited

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.
