- The edgeInterpolation::makeCorrectionVectors() disables the non-orthogonality
correction if the calculated non-orthogonality coefficient is below 0.1.
However, this activation routine only considers internal edges, and excludes
any processor edges, resulting in inconsistent parallel calculations. This
routine is removed.
- Fatal errors are replaced with zero-valued fields for non-orthogonality-
and skewness-correction routines.
- 1_Inlet_2_Outlet/porosityBased/R_10x-init/reEval: showcases the
initialization of the design variables using topoSet and setFields
- 3DBox/losses-mass-uniformity-SQP-extraVars: showcases the use of the
so-called 'extra variables' in the QP problem which relax it,
allowing its solution even if there is no feasible one
- the timeSelector is often used to select single or multiple times
(eg, for post-processing). However, there are a few applications
where only a *single* time should be selected and set.
These are now covered by this type of use:
timeSelector::addOptions_singleTime(); // Single-time options
...
// Allow override of time from specified time options, or no-op
timeSelector::setTimeIfPresent(runTime, args);
In some cases, if can be desirable to force starting from the
initial Time=0 when no time options have been specified:
// Set time from specified time options, or force start from Time=0
timeSelector::setTimeIfPresent(runTime, args, true);
These changes make a number of includes redundant:
* addTimeOptions.H
* checkConstantOption.H
* checkTimeOption.H
* checkTimeOptions.H
* checkTimeOptionsNoConstant.H
ENH: add time handling to setFields, setAlphaField (#3143)
Co-authored-by: Johan Roenby <>
STYLE: replace instant("constant") with instant(0, "constant")
- avoids relying on atof parse behaviour returning zero
- used defunct "processors/" directory naming, and includes are now
addressed by the file-handler anyhow.
ENH: support 'tutorials/Alltest -init'
- for copying/creating test directory without running
- renumberMesh now has -dry-run, -write-maps, -no-fields,
-renumber-method, -renumber-coeffs options.
* Use -dry-run with -write-maps to visualize the before/after
effects of renumbering (creates a VTK file).
* -no-fields to renumber the mesh only.
This is useful and faster when the input fields are uniform
and the -overwrite option is specified.
* -renumber-method allows a quick means of specifying a different
default renumber method (instead of Cuthill-McKee).
The -renumber-coeffs option allows passing of dictionary content
for the method.
Examples,
// Different ways to specify reverse Cuthill-McKee
* -renumber-method RCM
* -renumber-coeffs 'reverse true;'
* -renumber-method CuthillMcKee
* -renumber-coeffs 'reverse true;'
* -renumber-coeffs 'method CuthillMcKee; reverse true;'
// Other (without dictionary coefficients)
* renumberMesh -renumber-method random
// Other (with dictionary coefficients)
renumberMesh \
-renumber-method spring \
-renumber-coeffs 'maxCo 0.1; maxIter 1000; freezeFraction 0.99;'
// Other (with additional libraries)
renumberMesh -renumber-method zoltan -lib zoltanRenumber
COMP: build zoltan renumbering to MPI-specific location
- zoltan and Sloan renumbering are now longer automatically linked to
the renumberMesh utility but must be separately loaded by a
command-line option or through a dictionary "libs" entry.
ENH: add output cellID for decomposePar -dry-run -cellDist
