What kind of basis are you expecting? A tensor product?
At present we don't even need basis functions, because we're just
doing flow simulation and it's all finite volume.
Okay good. Now for cell geometry. What kind of deformation do you
allow in the wedge?
As in Fabian's application, these elements arise from meshes which have
a simple layered structure in the vertical, but are unstructured in the
horizontal (can be mixtures of quads and triangles in our case- in fact
the triangles usually only occur where there is local refinement).
So for us these wedges are just horizontal triangles projected downwards
in the vertical- not really deformed at all.
and what do you want
to know? For FV, we are providing the centroid and volume. If that is
enough, we could be done quickly.
Yes, just centroid and volume would be enough.
