DMDA#

“da” - A DM object that is used to manage data for a structured grid in 1, 2, or 3 dimensions. In the global representation of the vector each process stores a non-overlapping rectangular (or slab in 3d) portion of the grid points. In the local representation these rectangular regions (slabs) are extended in all directions by a stencil width set with DMDASetStencilWidth(). The vectors can be thought of as either cell centered or vertex centered on the mesh. But some variables cannot be cell centered and others vertex centered; see the documentation for DMSTAG, a similar DM implementation which supports more general staggered grids.
