Yeah I expected this... I would not know how to do this either. It would require that every manifold has some sort of "center of mass" variable that would be used to define the centroid of the manifold, but that would be some pretty heavy stuff to refactor and I am not sure it would lead to a cleaner design.
You are right that this is already very well documented in the GridTools::transform() documentation :). I need to learn to read the documentation a bit more before asking :) On Wednesday, August 4, 2021 at 10:11:03 a.m. UTC-4 Wolfgang Bangerth wrote: > On 8/4/21 6:57 AM, blais...@gmail.com wrote: > > > > Is that not a bit of an ill-defined behavior for the triangulations? > Shouldnt > > the manifolds also translate themselves when the triangulation is > translated? > > This is a discussion we had at some point when we looked at the > GridTools::transform() function where that issue is even documented. > You're > right that in principle, one would want to transform the manifold along > with > the mesh, but nobody had an idea of how to do that in practice. > > Best > W. > > -- > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Wolfgang Bangerth email: bang...@colostate.edu > www: http://www.math.colostate.edu/~bangerth/ > > -- The deal.II project is located at http://www.dealii.org/ For mailing list/forum options, see https://groups.google.com/d/forum/dealii?hl=en --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "deal.II User Group" group.
