- defined for lerp between two fields,
either with a constant or a field of interpolation factors.
* plain Field, DimensionedField, FieldField, GeometricFields
- using a field to lerp between two constants is not currently
supported
- clearer, more consistent parameter naming, which helps when
maintaining different field function types (eg, DimensionedFields,
GeometricFields)
- provide reuseTmpGeometricField::New taking a reference (not a tmp),
with forwarding. This helps centralise naming and acquisition etc
- split binary function macros into transform/interface
for easier support of different transform loops.
- initial field macros for looping over ternaries
- proper component-wise clamping for MinMax clamp().
- construct clampOp from components
- propagate clamp() method from GeometricField to FieldField and Field
- clamp_min() and clamp_max() for one-sided clamping,
as explicit alternative to min/max free functions which can
be less intuitive and often involve additional field copies.
- top-level checks to skip applying invalid min/max ranges
and bypass the internal checks of MinMax::clamp() etc.
- the old List_FOR_ALL macro only remained in use in relatively few
places. Replace with the expanded equivalent and move the looping
parameter out of the macro and give an explicit name (eg, loopLen)
which simplifies the addition of any loop pragmas in the various
TFOR_ALL... macros (for example).
- Global functions are unary or combining binary functions, which are
defined in MinMax.H (MinMaxOps.H).
There are also global reduction functions (gMinMax, gMinMaxMag)
as well as supporting 'Op' classes:
- minMaxOp, minMaxEqOp, minMaxMagOp, minMaxMagEqOp
Since the result of the functions represents a content reduction
into a single MinMax<T> value (a min/max pair), field operations
returning a field simply do not make sense.
- Implemented for lists, fields, field-fields, DimensionedField,
GeometricField (parallel reducing, with boundaries).
- Since the minMax evaluates during its operation, this makes it more
efficient for cases where both min/max values are required since it
avoids looping twice through the data.
* Changed GeometricField writeMinMax accordingly.
ENH: clip as field function
- clipping provides a more efficient, single-pass operation to apply
lower/upper limits on single or multiple values.
Examples,
scalarMinMax limiter(0, 1);
limiter.clip(value)
-> returns a const-ref to the value if within the range, or else
returns the appropriate lower/upper limit
limiter.inplaceClip(value)
-> Modifies the value if necessary to be within lower/upper limit
Function calls
clip(value, limiter)
-> returns a copy after applying lower/upper limit
clip(values, limiter)
-> returns a tmp<Field> of clipped values
Foam::direction is an unsigned type which makes it easier for the
compiler to pickup and report errors in the instantiation of
VectorSpaces and associated types.
in case of tmp misuse.
Simplified tmp reuse pattern in field algebra to use tmp copy and
assignment rather than the complex delayed call to 'ptr()'.
Removed support for unused non-const 'REF' storage of non-tmp objects due to C++
limitation in constructor overloading: if both tmp(T&) and tmp(const T&)
constructors are provided resolution is ambiguous.
The turbulence libraries have been upgraded and '-DCONST_TMP' option
specified in the 'options' file to switch to the new 'tmp' behavior.
This resolves a whole range of issues and work-arounds with earlier
releases. This version of icpc is more or less compatible with the
latest gcc and clang compilers and only required one hack to avoid
warnings from PackedBoolList.H.
The Field type of the result is that of the LH argument so now
// Update the phi BCs from U before p BCs are updated
phi.boundaryField() = mesh.Sf().boundaryField() & U.boundaryField();
is possible.
