DMPlexCreateBoxSurfaceMesh#

Creates a mesh on the surface of the tensor product of unit intervals (box) using tensor cells (hexahedra).

Synopsis#

#include "petscdmplex.h"   
#include "petscdmplex.h"   
PetscErrorCode DMPlexCreateBoxSurfaceMesh(MPI_Comm comm, PetscInt dim, const PetscInt faces[], const PetscReal lower[], const PetscReal upper[], PetscBool interpolate, DM *dm)

Collective

Input Parameters#

  • comm - The communicator for the DM object

  • dim - The spatial dimension of the box, so the resulting mesh is has dimension dim-1

  • faces - Number of faces per dimension, or NULL for (1,) in 1D and (2, 2) in 2D and (1, 1, 1) in 3D

  • lower - The lower left corner, or NULL for (0, 0, 0)

  • upper - The upper right corner, or NULL for (1, 1, 1)

  • interpolate - Flag to create intermediate mesh pieces (edges, faces)

Output Parameter#

  • dm - The DM object
