- was in fvMotionSolver, but only requires PatchFunction1 capabilities
(from within meshTools).
GIT: relocate IOmapDistributePolyMesh (from dynamicMesh to OpenFOAM)
- adds handling of negative start times for masterUncollatedFileOperation
as well (#1112).
- handle failures *after* restoring non-parRun mode.
This ensures exit(FatalError) will exit MPI properly as well.
STYLE: replace "polyMesh" with polyMesh::meshSubDir
STYLE: adjust IOobject read/write enumerated values
- provision for possible bitwise handling
- additional Pstream::broadcasts() method to serialize/deserialize
multiple items.
- revoke the broadcast specialisations for std::string and List(s) and
use a generic broadcasting template. In most cases, the previous
specialisations would have required two broadcasts:
(1) for the size
(2) for the contiguous content.
Now favour reduced communication over potential local (intermediate)
storage that would have only benefited a few select cases.
ENH: refine PstreamBuffers access methods
- replace 'bool hasRecvData(label)' with 'label recvDataCount(label)'
to recover the number of unconsumed receive bytes from specified
processor. Can use 'labelList recvDataCounts()' to recover the
number of unconsumed receive bytes from all processor.
- additional peekRecvData() method (for transcribing contiguous data)
ENH: globalIndex whichProcID - check for isLocal first
- reasonable to assume that local items are searched for more
frequently, so do preliminary check for isLocal before performing
a more costly binary search of globalIndex offsets
ENH: masterUncollatedFileOperation - bundled scatter of status
- use vector::removeCollinear a few places
COMP: incorrect initialization order in edgeFaceCirculator
COMP: Silence boost bind deprecation warnings (before CGAL-5.2.1)
- for most field types this is a no-op, but for a field of floatVector
or doubleVector (eg, vector and solveVector) it will normalise each
element with divide-by-zero protection.
More reliable and efficient than dividing a field by the mag of itself
(even with VSMALL protection).
Applied to FieldField and GeometricField as well.
Eg,
fld.normalise();
vs.
fld /= mag(fld) + VSMALL;
ENH: support optional tolerance for vector::normalise
- for cases where tolerances larger than ROOTVSMALL are preferable.
Not currently available for the field method (a templating question).
ENH: vector::removeCollinear method
- when working with geometries it is frequently necessary to have a
normal vector without any collinear components. The removeCollinear
method provides for clearer, compacter code.
Eg,
vector edgeNorm = ...;
const vector edgeDirn = e.unitVec(points());
edgeNorm.removeCollinear(edgeDirn);
edgeNorm.normalise();
vs.
vector edgeNorm = ...;
const vector edgeDirn = e.unitVec(points());
edgeNorm -= edgeDirn*(edgeDirn & edgeNorm);
edgeNorm /= mag(edgeNorm);
- for obtaining set entries from a boolList
- BitOps::select to mirror bitSet constructor but returning a boolList
- BitOps::set/unset for boolList
ENH: construct bitSet from a labelRange
- useful, for example, when marking up patch slices
ENH: ListOps methods
- ListOps::count_if to mirror std::count_if but with list indexing.
- ListOps::find_if to mirror std::find_if but with list indexing.
ENH: UPtrList::test() method.
- includes bounds checks, which means it can be used in more places
(eg, even if the storage is empty).
Previous commit solved: "mixture rho to volume-based in rhoThermo."
This proved to work correctly for rho=constant EoS but not for
idealGas. Fixes#2304. The previous gitlab issue was #1812.
- `functions<scalar>` and `functions<vector>` were erroneously
documented in header as `lookup<scalar>` etc.
INT: handle fluent square brackets (fixes#2429)
- patch applied from openfoam.org
- support direct processing of CompactListList instead of requiring
a conversion to labelListList for bandCompression and renumbering
methods.
- manage FIFO with CircularBuffer instead of SLList (avoids
allocations in inner loops). Invert logic to use a bitSet of
unvisited cells, which improves looping as the matrix becomes more
sparse.
- fix missed weighting in bandCompression (same as #1376).
In polyTopoChange, handle removed cells immediately to simplify
the logic and align more closely with bandCompression.
STYLE: enclose bandCompression within meshTools namespace
ENH: PrimitivePatch pointFaces with DynamicList instead of SLList
- MPI_Gatherv requires contiguous data, but a byte-wise transfer can
quickly exceed the 'int' limits used for MPI sizes/offsets. Thus
gather label/scalar components when possible to increase the
effective size limit.
For non-contiguous types (or large contiguous data) now also
reverts to manual handling
ENH: handle contiguous data in GAMGAgglomeration gather values
- delegate to globalIndex::gatherValues static method (new)
- bundles frequently used 'gather/scatter' patterns more consistently.
- combineAllGather -> combineGather + broadcast
- listCombineAllGather -> listCombineGather + broadcast
- mapCombineAllGather -> mapCombineGather + broadcast
- allGatherList -> gatherList + scatterList
- reduce -> gather + broadcast (ie, allreduce)
- The allGatherList currently wraps gatherList/scatterList, but may be
replaced with a different algorithm in the future.
STYLE: PstreamCombineReduceOps.H is mostly unneeded now
STYLE: LduInterfaceFieldPtrsList as alias instead of a class
STYLE: define patch lists typedefs when defining the base patch
- eg, polyPatchList typedef within polyPatch.H
INT: relocate GeometricField::Boundary -> GeometricBoundaryField
- was internal to GeometricField but moving it outside simplifies
forward declarations etc. Code adapted from openfoam.org
Two problems:
- flipping inside snappyHexMesh is not done in a parallel
consistent way. So e.g. the octree-cached inside/outside information
has already been calculated. For now flipping of
distributedTriSurfaceMesh is disabled.
- octree-cached inside/outside information was using already
cached information and would only work for outwards pointing
volumes
- percent of cells is taken relative to selection size.
- percent of faces is taken relative to the number of boundary faces
that do not fix velocity themselves.
ENH: avoid correctBoundaryConditions() if values were not limited
- when writing surface formats (eg, vtk, ensight etc) the sampled
surfaces merge the faces/points originating from different
processors into a single surface (ie, patch gatherAndMerge).
Previous versions of mergePoints simply merged all points possible,
which proves to be rather slow for larger meshes. This has now been
modified to only consider boundary points, which reduces the number
of points to consider. As part of this change, the reference point
is now always equivalent to the min of the bounding box, which
reduces the number of search loops. The merged points retain their
original order.
- inplaceMergePoints version to simplify use and improve code
robustness and efficiency.
ENH: make PrimitivePatch::boundaryPoints() less costly
- if edge addressing does not already exist, it will now simply walk
the local face edges directly to define the boundary points.
This avoids a rather large overhead of the full faceFaces,
edgeFaces, faceEdges addressing.
This operation is now more important since it is used in the revised
patch gatherAndMerge.
ENH: topological merge for mesh-based surfaces in surfaceFieldValue
- lower memory overhead, simpler code and eliminates need for
ListListOps::combineOffset()
- optional handling of local faces/points for re-using in different
contexts
STYLE: labelUList instead of labelList for globalMesh mergePoints
STYLE: adjust verbose information from mergePoints
- also report the current new-point location
- also disables PointData if manifold cells are detected.
This is a partial workaround for volPointInterpolation problems
with handling manifold cells.
- additional verbosity option for conversions
- ignore old `-finite-area` option and always convert available
finiteArea mesh/fields unless `-no-finite-area` is specified (#2374)
ENH: simplify point offset handling for ensight output
- extend writing to include compact face/cell lists
- a try/catch approach is not really robust enough (or even possible)
since read failures likely do not occur on all ranks simultaneously.
This leads to situations where the master has thrown an exception
(and thus exiting the current routine) while other ranks are still
waiting to receive data and the program blocks completely.
Since this primarily affects data conversion routines such as
foamToEnsight etc, treat similarly to lagrangian: check for the
existence of essential files before proceeding or not. This is
wrapped into a TryNew factory method:
autoPtr<faMesh> faMeshPtr(faMesh::TryNew(mesh));
if (faMeshPtr) ...
