oscillatingInletACMI2D

This tutorial case gives an example of the Arbitrarily Coupled Mesh Interface
(ACMI) usage.  The mesh is composed of two mesh regions: an inlet channel which
oscillates in the +/- Y-direction, and a fixed mesh region.

Each ACMI patch requires the specification of a 'non-overlapping' patch.  In
this example, the non-overlapping patches are described as walls, e.g. taken
from the constant/polyMesh/boundary file:

    1. First ACMI patch pair applied to the inlet channel outlet

        ACMI1_couple
        {
            type            cyclicACMI;
            nFaces          40;
            startFace       43720;
            matchTolerance  0.0001;
            transform       noOrdering;
            neighbourPatch  ACMI2_couple;
            nonOverlapPatch ACMI1_blockage;
        }
        ACMI1_blockage
        {
            type            wall;
            nFaces          40;
            startFace       43680;
        }


    1. Second ACMI patch pair applied to the fixed mesh region inlet

        ACMI2_couple
        {
            type            cyclicACMI;
            nFaces          96;
            startFace       43856;
            matchTolerance  0.0001;
            transform       noOrdering;
            neighbourPatch  ACMI1_couple;
            nonOverlapPatch ACMI2_blockage;
        }
        ACMI2_blockage
        {
            type            wall;
            nFaces          96;
            startFace       43760;
        }


In the above, the ACMI1_blockage and ACMI1_couple patches occupy the same space,
with duplicate points, edges and faces.  The ACMI2_blockage and ACMI2_couple
patches are created similarly.

The duplicate patches are initially created using the createBaffles utility.
Firstly, the original (non-duplicated) patch faces are collected into zones
using the topoSet utility.

Note: when specifying the ACMI patch-pairs, the coupled patch must be specified
before its associated non-overlapping patch.

Each ACMI/non-overlapping patch pair is specified using a master-slave approach.
However, since we are generating boundary patches (which are always master
patches) the slave patches are simply defined using 'dummy' entries, e.g.:

    type        faceZone;
    zoneName    couple1Faces;

    patches
    {
        // create cyclic ACMI patch
        master
        {
            //- Master side patch
            name            ACMI1_couple;
            type            cyclicACMI;
            matchTolerance  0.0001;
            neighbourPatch  ACMI2_couple;
            nonOverlapPatch ACMI1_blockage;
            transform       noOrdering;
        }
        slave // dummy entries only
        {
            //- Slave side patch
            name            ACMI1_couple;
            type            patch;
        }
        // create blockage patch
        master2
        {
            //- Master side patch
            name            ACMI1_blockage;
            type            wall;
        }
        slave12 // dummy entries only
        {
            //- Slave side patch
            name            ACMI1_blockage;
            type            wall;
        }

    }

Boundary conditions must then be applied to all geometric patches in the usual,
manner, and the cases can be executed in parallel (as shown when running the
Allrun-parallel script) without any speacial treatment, i.e. the case set-up is
the same as when operating in serial mode.


checkMesh
---------
checkMesh will see the 'duplicate' boundary faces but does not know about
the area factors so will complain:

     ***Boundary openness (-0.0103092 2.3845e-17 3.80774e-17) possible hole in boundary description.
     ***Open cells found, max cell openness: 0.333333, number of open cells 136
      <<Writing 136 non closed cells to set nonClosedCells

As long as these non-closed cells are on the ACMI they can be ignored.


paraFoam
--------
- display: it will not display the outside of the ACMI, there will be a hole.
- cuttingPlanes: they leave out the duplicate faces (i.e. the cells on
  the ACMI patches)
- interpolation: the interpolation does not take into account the
area-weights on the ACMI.


pointFields
-----------
Same as paraFoam: the interpolation does not take into account the
area-weights on the ACMI.
