We call in 'joiner'.

I wrote something like this:

import std.stdio;
import std.algorithm;
import std.range;

int value = 0;

auto makeNdim(size_t N)(size_t length)
if (N == 1) {
  auto result = iota(value, value + length).array;
  value += length;
  return result;
}

auto makeNdim(size_t N)(size_t length)
if (N > 1) {
  return iota(N).map!(n => makeNdim!(N - 1)(length)).array;
}

auto flatten(R)(R range)
if (!isInputRange!(ElementType!R)) {
  return range.joiner;
}

auto flatten(R)(R range)
if (isInputRange!(ElementType!R)) {
  return range.map!(r => r.joiner).joiner;
}

void main() {
  auto a = makeNdim!3(5);
  writefln!"Original : %s"(a);
  writefln!"Flattened: %s"(a.flatten);
}

Output:

Original : [[[0, 1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8, 9]], [[10, 11, 12, 13, 14], [15, 16, 17, 18, 19]], [[20, 21, 22, 23, 24], [25, 26, 27, 28, 29]]] Flattened: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29]
