Member Function Documentation

global()

template<class ct , int mydim, int cdim>

GlobalCoordinate Dune::AffineGeometry< ct, mydim, cdim >::global ( const LocalCoordinate &  local ) const

inline

Evaluate the mapping.

Parameters

[in]

local

local coordinate to map

Returns

corresponding global coordinate

Referenced by Dune::AffineGeometry< ct, mydim, cdim >::center(), Dune::AffineGeometry< ct, mydim, cdim >::corner(), Dune::AffineGeometry< ct, mydim, cdim >::global(), and Dune::AffineGeometry< ct, mydim, cdim >::LocalCoordinate().

integrationElement()

template<class ct , int mydim, int cdim>

ctype Dune::AffineGeometry< ct, mydim, cdim >::integrationElement ( const LocalCoordinate &  local ) const

inline

Obtain the integration element.

If the Jacobian of the mapping is denoted by $J(x)$, the integration integration element \(\mu(x)\) is given by

\[ \mu(x) = \sqrt{|\det (J^T(x) J(x))|}.\]

Parameters

[in]

local

local coordinate to evaluate the integration element in

Returns

the integration element \(\mu(x)\).

jacobianInverseTransposed()

template<class ct , int mydim, int cdim>

const JacobianInverseTransposed & Dune::AffineGeometry< ct, mydim, cdim >::jacobianInverseTransposed ( const LocalCoordinate &  local ) const

inline

Obtain the transposed of the Jacobian's inverse.

The Jacobian's inverse is defined as a pseudo-inverse. If we denote the Jacobian by \(J(x)\), the following condition holds:

\[J^{-1}(x) J(x) = I.\]

jacobianTransposed()

template<class ct , int mydim, int cdim>

const JacobianTransposed & Dune::AffineGeometry< ct, mydim, cdim >::jacobianTransposed ( const LocalCoordinate &  local ) const

inline

Obtain the transposed of the Jacobian.

Parameters

[in]

local

local coordinate to evaluate Jacobian in

Returns

a reference to the transposed of the Jacobian

LocalCoordinate()

template<class ct , int mydim, int cdim>

Dune::AffineGeometry< ct, mydim, cdim >::LocalCoordinate ( const GlobalCoordinate &  global ) const

inline

Evaluate the inverse mapping.

Parameters

[in]

global

global coordinate to map

Returns

corresponding local coordinate

The returned local coordinate y minimizes

(global( y ) - x).two_norm()

on the entire affine hull of the reference element. This degenerates to the inverse map if the argument y is in the range of the map.
