DMSwarmPICLayoutType#

Defines the method used to define particle coordinates within each cell. The layouts are constructured using the reference cell geometry

Synopsis#

typedef enum {
  DMSWARMPIC_LAYOUT_REGULAR = 0,
  DMSWARMPIC_LAYOUT_GAUSS,
  DMSWARMPIC_LAYOUT_SUBDIVISION
} DMSwarmPICLayoutType;

DMSWARMPIC_LAYOUT_REGULAR - defines points on a regular ijk mesh. In this case the fill_param argument of DMSwarmInsertPointsUsingCellDM() defines the number of points in each spatial direction.
DMSWARMPIC_LAYOUT_GAUSS - defines points using an npoint Gauss-Legendre tensor product quadrature rule. In this case the fill_param argument of DMSwarmInsertPointsUsingCellDM() defines the number of quadrature points in each spatial direction.
DMSWARMPIC_LAYOUT_SUBDIVISION - defines points on the centroid of a sub-divided reference cell. In this case the fill_param argument of DMSwarmInsertPointsUsingCellDM() defines the number times the reference cell is sub-divided.
