DMSwarmRemapType#

Selects the remapping (resampling) scheme applied to a DMSWARM to maintain particle distribution quality

Synopsis#

typedef enum {
  DMSWARM_REMAP_NONE    = 0,
  DMSWARM_REMAP_PFAK    = 1,
  DMSWARM_REMAP_COLELLA = 2
} DMSwarmRemapType;

Values#

DMSWARM_REMAP_NONE - do not remap particles
DMSWARM_REMAP_PFAK - the particle remapping method that uses projection to a continuum preserving the moments [AFKP26]
DMSWARM_REMAP_COLELLA - the Colella remap that uses an interpolation-based redistribution suited to particle-in-cell methods
