- functionObjectLibs -> libs
- redirectType -> name
- change deprecated writeCompression flags types to Switch.
- cleanup some trailing ';;' from some dictionaries
- for larger problems with a smaller region of interest, can apply a
bounding to limit the size of the ensight geometry and fields created.
Since the implementation uses a fvMeshSubset, there is an additional
per-process memory overhead.
A high output frequency should be avoided with moving meshes, since
this indirectly forces a frequent update of the submesh.
- signedDistance() method is like distance() but retains
the positive/negative sign for the side of the plane.
- the sign() method returns the sign as -1,0,+1 integer for
classification purposes where it is important to distinguish between
a zero value and a positive value (eg, for cutting). Optional
tolerance can be supplied to round for zero.
- refactor and inlined simple and frequently used methods.
- add boundBox faceCentre() method, which can be useful for creating
clipping planes from a bounding box.
Relocated treeBoundBox faceNormals to boundBox since they apply
equally there - the meaning of the faces (x-min, x-max, etc)
is the same, even if the point addressing for the faces differs.
- improve doxygen entries for searchable surfaces.
- support selection of searchable surfaces with shorter names.
Eg,
type box | cylinder | ...;
vs type searchableBox | searchableCylinder | ...;
- relocate some standard functionality to TimePaths to allow a lighter
means of managing time directories without using the entire Time
mechanism.
- optional enableLibs for Time construction (default is on)
and a corresponding argList::noLibs() and "-no-libs" option
STYLE:
- mark Time::outputTime() as deprecated MAY-2016
- use pre-increment for runTime, although there is no difference in
behaviour or performance.
- input or output scaling of values to manage dissimilar unit systems
in the structures model
- logging of communicated force, moments and updated positions.
This allows tracking of the information exchange throughout the
duration of the simulation and may assist in post-simulation diagnosis.
- controlled by the the 'printExecutionFormat' InfoSwitch in
etc/controlDict
// Style for "ExecutionTime = " output
// - 0 = seconds (with trailing 's')
// - 1 = day-hh:mm:ss
ExecutionTime = 112135.2 s ClockTime = 113017 s
ExecutionTime = 1-07:08:55.20 ClockTime = 1-07:23:37
- Callable via the new Time::printExecutionTime() method,
which also helps to reduce clutter in the applications.
Eg,
runTime.printExecutionTime(Info);
vs
Info<< "ExecutionTime = " << runTime.elapsedCpuTime() << " s"
<< " ClockTime = " << runTime.elapsedClockTime() << " s"
<< nl << endl;
--
ENH: return elapsedClockTime() and clockTimeIncrement as double
- previously returned as time_t, which is less portable.
