P1LagrangeInterpolation

class P1LagrangeInterpolation(*args)

P1 interpolation of values between two meshes.

This class is a FieldFunction, it first builds a projection matrix between two meshes, and can then interpolate a Field defined on input mesh onto a Field defined on output mesh.

Available constructors:

P1LagrangeInterpolation(inputMesh, outputMesh, dimension)

P1LagrangeInterpolation(inputMesh, outputMesh, dimension, enclosingSimplex, nearestNeighbour)

Parameters:
inputMeshMesh

Input mesh.

outputMeshMesh

Output mesh.

dimensionint

Dimension of fields to evaluate.

enclosingSimplexEnclosingSimplexAlgorithm

Algorithm used to find the enclosing simplex of each output point in input mesh. If a point is not contained in any mesh simplex, the nearest point is used.

nearestNeighbourNearestNeighbourAlgorithm

Algorithm used to find nearest neighbour of an output point, when it is not contained in any simplex of input mesh.

Notes

A FieldFunction is usually defined by three numbers, the input dimension, and dimensions of input and output fields. Before evaluating a Field, classes check that its dimensions are the ones which had been declared.

This class is special because it can deal with fields of any dimension, and output field will have the same dimension as input field. This dimension is passed to constructor, but method setDimension() can be called to interpolate fields of different dimensions without having to rebuild the projection between meshes.
