- the heuristic for matching unresolved intersections is a relatively
simple matching scheme that seems to be more robust than attempting to walk
the geometry or the cuts.
- avoid false positives for self intersection
- adjust for updates in 'develop'
- change surfaceIntersection constructor to take a dictionary of
options.
tolerance | Edge-length tolerance | scalar | 1e-3
allowEdgeHits | Edge-end cuts another edge | bool | true
avoidDuplicates | Reduce the number of duplicate points | bool | true
warnDegenerate | Number of warnings about degenerate edges | label | 0
- If the dictionary is named 'surfaces', a 'surfaces' entry is mandatory.
This is a list of wordRe, which is used to load multiple surfaces from
constant/triSurface directory.
- Other dictionaries may contain a 'surfaces' entry.
In which case the behaviour is as above (loading multiple surfaces).
The dictionary name will *NOT* be taken as a surface name itself.
- Regardless of how the surfaces are loaded or features extracted,
an additional selfIntersection test may be used.
Eg,
surfaces
{
extractionMethod extractFromSurface;
surfaces (surface1.stl surface2.nas);
// Generate features from self-intersect
selfIntersection true;
// Base output name (optiona)
output surfaces;
// Tolerance for self-intersect
planarTolerance 1e-3;
extractFromSurfaceCoeffs
{
includedAngle 120;
// Do not mark region edges
geometricTestOnly yes;
}
}
- use InfoSwitch to disable, or via static method.
- respect the state of the argList banner when deciding to emit
initialization information. Can otherwise end up with unwanted
output rubbish on things like foamDictionary and foamListTimes.
- the purpose is more explicit, without needing to check documentation
about what the bool parameter means.
STYLE: improve formatting of fileName documentation
- identical code was present in surfaceCheck (original source),
and isoSurface, isoSurfaceCell (copies).
- add in a MeshedSurface<face> variant as well, since this will likely
be needed in the near future
- these directories are sometimes used for a central, non-thirdparty, non-system
installation
- leave gmp and mpfr as is, since it is not clear how these would interact with system
versions
- only occurs in combination with distributedTriSurfaceMesh in snappy.
- workaround similar to that previously used for surfaceRedistributePar
(issue #60).
Minor adjustment of incompressible motorBike tutorial to detect use of
distributedTriSurfaceMesh.
- there was a slight mix of MUST_READ and MUST_READ_IF_MODIFIED
but with no obvious code to handle runtime modified values
of the decomposition, or how this works with alternative
dictionaries.
- A special purpose MeshedSurface that exposes the stored values
for direct modification.
- Its usage should be restricted to special cases where the surface
needs modifications as an atomic operation.
- Cleanup/centralize handling of -decomposeParDict by relocating
common code into argList. Ensures that all processes receive
identical information about the -decomposeParDict opton.
- Only use alternative decomposeParDict for simpleFoam/motorBike
tutorial so that this will be included in the test loop for snappy.
- Added Mattijs' fix for surfaceRedistributePar.
On 64-bit systems, the system installations of boost, cgal are under
lib64/. The behaviour for a ThirdParty build is mostly lib/ but this
can also be changing.
Boost 1_62_0 and older build into 'lib/'.
CGAL-4.9 builds into 'lib64/', older versions into 'lib/'.
Future-proof things by using lib$WM_COMPILER_LIB_ARCH for boost and
cgal build rules, and forcing these as build targets in the ThirdParty
makeCGAL as well.

STYLE: check for boost/version.hpp, CGAL/version.h instead their directories
* MeshedSurface / surfMesh / triSurface
- use shorter method names similar to those from volume meshes:
Sf(), magSf(), Cf()
instead of the longer ones from PrimitivePatch:
faceAreas(), magFaceAreas(), faceCentres()
- similar names throughout to ease switching between triSurface and
MeshedSurface storage.
- Allows passing of additional information (per-face zone ids) or possibly
other things, while reducing the number of arguments to pass.
- In sampledTriSurfaceMesh, preserve the region information that was
read in, passing it onwards via the UnsortedMeshSurface content.
The Nastran surface writer is currently the only writer making use
of this per-face zone information.
Passing it through as a PSHELL attribute, which should retain the
distinction for parts. (issue #204)
The deprecated non-const tmp functionality is now on the compiler switch
NON_CONST_TMP which can be enabled by adding -DNON_CONST_TMP to EXE_INC
in the Make/options file. However, it is recommended to upgrade all
code to the new safer tmp by using the '.ref()' member function rather
than the non-const '()' dereference operator when non-const access to
the temporary object is required.
Please report any problems on Mantis.

Moved file path handling to regIOobject and made it type specific so
now every object can have its own rules. Examples:
- faceZones are now processor local (and don't search up anymore)
- timeStampMaster is now no longer hardcoded inside IOdictionary
(e.g. uniformDimensionedFields support it as well)
- the distributedTriSurfaceMesh is properly processor-local; no need
for fileModificationChecking manipulation.
surfaceBooleanFeatures: use CGAL for intersection
surfaceCheck: write surface zoning as vtk file
surfaceInflate: new utility to offset surface
surfacePatch: replacement for surfaceAutoPatch. Also does cutting of surfaces.
