Detailed Description

Describe position of one degree of freedom.

A LocalKey associates a degree of freedom with an index of a local basis function.

Member Enumeration Documentation

anonymous enum

anonymous enum

Enumerate 'special values' for the codimension method.

Enumerator

intersectionCodim

Codimension returned by LocalKey::codim() for degrees of freedom attached to an intersection. The standard interface of dune-localfunctions assumes that degrees of freedom are attached to subentities of an element. This subentities can be described by a codimension and a subentity number. However some elements, like the mimetic finite elements, attach their degrees of freedom to intersections. While intersections do have a codimension, namely 1, having the method codim() return 1 in this case would be ambiguous. Hence 'intersectionCodim' is returned instead.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

LocalKey()

constexpr Dune::LocalKey::LocalKey ( unsigned int  s, unsigned int  c, unsigned int  i  )

inlineconstexprnoexcept

Initialize all components.

Parameters

s	Local number of the associated subentity
c	Codimension of the associated subentity
i	Index in the set of all functions associated to this subentity
