Hi all,
This is a follow-up about moving mesh operation in libMesh.
If I write out the original mesh first, then change the nodal coordinates
by loop over each node, finally write out the new moved mesh to a local
file. I found that both the original mesh and the moved mesh are in one
file. What I expected is that I can output the updated mesh at each step,
but now it seems that all are output together at each step. Did I did
something wrong, or anything I lost?
The following codes simply update the nodal coordinates by 5 along the x
direction:
MeshBase::node_iterator nd = _surface_mesh.active_nodes_begin();
const MeshBase::node_iterator end_nd = _surface_mesh.active_nodes_end();
for ( ; nd != end_nd; ++nd)
{
Node* node = *nd;
const dof_id_type n_id = node->id();
for(unsigned int i=0; i<3; ++i)
{
Real ttt = 0.;
if (i==0) ttt = 5.;
(*node)(i) = (*node)(i) + ttt;
}
Thank you in advance.
