When restarting form a previous calculation, the averaging is continuous or
may be restarted using the \c restartOnRestart option.
The averaging process may be restarted after each calculation output time
using the \c restartOnOutput option or restarted periodically using the \c
periodicRestart option and setting \c restartPeriod to the required
averaging period.
Example of function object specification:
\verbatim
fieldAverage1
{
type fieldAverage;
functionObjectLibs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
...
restartOnRestart false;
restartOnOutput false;
periodicRestart false;
restartPeriod 0.002;
fields
(
U
{
mean on;
prime2Mean on;
base time;
window 10.0;
windowName w1;
}
p
{
mean on;
prime2Mean on;
base time;
}
);
}
\endverbatim

in decomposeParDict.
This default number of processors may be overridden by the new "-np"
option to runParallel which must be specified before the application
name e.g.:
runParallel -np 4 pisoFoam
so that the specification of the name and dimensions are optional in property dictionaries.
Update tutorials so that the name of the dimensionedScalar property is
no longer duplicated but optional dimensions are still provided and are
checked on read.
For multi-region cases the default location of blockMeshDict is now system/<region name>
If the blockMeshDict is not found in system then the constant directory
is also checked providing backward-compatibility
The standard/previous general symmetry type is now named symmetry
both in class and lookup name for consistency. The rigorous
symmetryPlane type is needed for moving-mesh cases in which the
motion it constrained by one or two planes.
