Yes.  I would like to a rotational BCs(Twist bcs).

Such a boundary is needed to reduce the computational domain.


Thanks lot


Best regards

Yeah, I thought this was topologically just a cone, but that would have:

u(x=1) = -v(y=1)

and

v(x=1) = u(y=1) (note matching sign).

So if you wanted the v(x=1) = -u(y=1) there would be a twist somehow, and then 
a discontinuity in the mapping.
