- weight fields are combined by multiplication
- volFieldValue:
* 0-N scalar fields
- surfaceFieldValue:
* 0-N scalar fields
* 0-1 vector fields
In some cases this can be used to avoid creating additional
fields.

- when sampling onto a meshed surface, the sampling surface may be
outside of the mesh region, or simply too far away to be considered
reasonable.
Can now specify a max search distance and default values for samples
that are too distant.
If a default value is not specified, uses Type(Zero).
Eg,
maxDistance 0.005;
defaultValue
{
"p.*" 1e5;
T 273.15;
U (-100 -100 -100);
}
- additional "names" entry to specify a word/regex list of selections
For example,
{
type patch;
name inlets;
names ("inlet_[0-9].*" inlet);
}
- if "names" exists AND contains a literal (non-regex) that can be used
as a suitable value for "name", the "name" entry becomes optional.
For example,
{
type patch;
names ("inlet_[0-9].*" inlet);
// inferred name = inlet
}
- reduce some overhead in surfaceFieldValue
TUT: surfaceFieldValue on patches : reactingParcelFoam/verticalChannel
- read surfaces which are defined in terms of solid element sides. Eg,
```
*ELEMENT, TYPE=C3D4, ELSET=...
1, ...
2, ...
*SURFACE, NAME=Things, TYPE=ELEMENT
1, S1
2, S1
```
The element and side number are encoded as a synthetic face id
according to
-(10 * elemId + sideNum)
but the underlying solid geometry is discarded, since there is no
reasonable way to pass it through the surface sampling mechanism.
- bitSet and PackedList fill() as per boost dynamic_bitset.
Silently deprecate assign(val), which is potentially confusing
with other forms of assign().
- FixedList fill() as per std::array.
Add missing assignment from Foam::zero
- minor code simplication in bitSet and PackedList
STYLE: fix typo in comment, qualify Foam::zero
- findZone(), cfindZone() to return pointer to existing or nullptr if
not found. This fits with methods such as findObject() etc for other
classes and can simplify code without checks for '-1' as not found.
- use simpler constructors for empty cell/face/point zones
- change to a templated implementation instead of relying on
the container's writeList() method.
This inlines the generation while also adding the flexibility to
define different delimiters (at compile time) without the
performance penalty of passing run-time parameters.
- deprecate get(key, deflt) in favour of lookup(key, deflt).
Method name compatibility with HashTable.
- deprecate operator().
The meaning is too opaque and equally served by other means:
- use get(key) instead of operator()(key).
Const access whereas HashTable::operator()(key)
creates missing entry.
- lookup(key, deflt) - instead of operator()(key, deflt).
Const access whereas HashTable::operator()(key, deflt)
creates a missing entry.
- make Enum iterable to allow participation in range-for etc.
This also is to do with redistributePar:
this uses subsetMesh to generate parts to
send to different processors.
2) related to 1558: make sure not to choose 'mapped'
patches to move the processor patches into so
we can use the mapper cloning and correctly
size additional data (e.g. offsets). This should
be generalised to hold for any patch type
holding local data ...
- For slow oscillations it can be more intuitive to specify the
period.
ENH: separate mark/space for Square
- makes it easier to tailor the desired intervals.
BUG: incorrect square wave fraction with negative phase shifts
ENH: additional cosine Function1
STYLE: avoid code duplication by inheriting Cosine/Square from Sine.
- easier support for non-mandatory functions.
In some boundary conditions it can be desirable to support
additional functions, but not necessarily require them. Make this
easier to support with a Function1, PatchFunction1 NewIfPresent()
selector.
- support for compatibility lookups
- harmonize branching logic and error handling between Function1 and
PatchFunction1.
ENH: refactor a base class for Function1, PatchFunction1
- includes base characteristics, patch or scalar information
ENH: additional creation macros
- makeConcreteFunction1, makeConcretePatchFunction1Type for adding a
non-templated function into the correct templated selection table.
makeScalarPatchFunction1 for similarity with makeScalarFunction1
- deprecated Feb-2018, but not marked as such.
The set() method originally enforce an additional run-time check
(Fatal if pointer was already set), but this was rarely used.
In fact, the set() method was invariably used in constructors
where the pointer by definition was unset.
Can now mark as deprecated to catch the last of these.
We prefer reset() for similarity with std::unique_ptr
Eg,
FOAM_EXTRA_CXXFLAGS="-DFoam_autoPtr_deprecate_setMethod" wmake
ENH: support construction of zero-sized IndirectList
- useful when addressing is to be generated in-place after construction.
Eg,
indirectPrimitivePatch myPatches
(
IndirectList<face>(mesh.faces(), Zero),
mesh.points()
);
labelList& patchFaces = myPatches.addressing();
patchFaces.resize(...);
// populate patchFaces
STYLE: add noexcept for zero/one fields and remove old dependency files
COMP: correct typedefs for geometricOneField, geometricZeroField
- uses ocountstream for the output, which swallows all output.
Improves portability
ENH: improved efficiency in countstreambuf
- xsputn() instead of overflow
- more consistent seek* methods
Computes a histogram for the distribution of particle diameters
and corresponding number of particles hitting on a given list of patches.
A minimal example by using `constant/reactingCloud1Properties.cloudFunctions`:
```
patchParticleHistogram1
{
// Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
type patchParticleHistogram;
patches (<patch1> <patch2> ... <patchN>);
nBins 10;
min 0.1;
max 10.0;
maxStoredParcels 20;
}
```
DOC: heatTransferCoeff models: complete remaining header docs
STYLE: heatTransferCoeff models: use auto specifier when appropriate
Optionally, the Nusselt number (i.e. the ratio of convective to conductive
heat transfer at a boundary in a fluid) can be output:
```math
Nu = \frac{h L}{\kappa}
```
where
```
Nu | Nusselt number
h | Convective heat transfer coefficient of the flow
L | Characteristic length that defines the scale of the physical system
\kappa | Thermal conductivity of the fluid
```
It was observed in a MPPICDyMFoam simulation involving a single particle
in a moving mesh that the barocentric trajectory of the particle follows
an unexpected path at some arbitrary instant in time.
The issue was tracked to "hitEqn()" where cubicEqn/quadraticEqn computes
one of the roots wrongly due to the discriminant limit we set, e.g. for:
0x^3 + 1.4334549e-33 x^2 - 9.0869006e-10 x + 0.0027666538
Although the discriminant limit was carefully selected to avoid various
problems at the time, the new change is required more due to its exposition
to a wider spectrum of applications.

The main issue here was that reconstructPar is serial but coupled() in
cyclicAMIFvPatch.C could return true if both sides of the patch was present
(this->size() && neighbFvPatch().size()). However, this would result in an
evaluate call in cyclicAMIFvPatchField. This would only work if both sides
were completely contained on the same processor. The change in logic prevents
coupled() from returning true when called in serial for a decomposed case.

- prefix FOAM_MPI and library directories with 'sys-' for system
versions for uniform identication.
WM_MPLIB | libdir (FOAM_MPI) | old naming |
SYSTEMMPI | sys-mpi | mpi |
SYSTEMOPENMPI | sys-openmpi | openmpi-system |
- prefix preferences with 'prefs.' to make them more easily
identifiable, and update bin/tools/create-mpi-config accordingly
Old name: config.{csh,sh}/openmpi
New name: config.{csh,sh}/prefs.openmpi
- additional mpi preferences now available:
* prefs.intelmpi
* prefs.mpich
...
CONFIG: added hook for EASYBUILDMPI (eb-mpi), somewhat like USERMPI
- EasyBuild uses mpicc when compiling, so no explicit wmake rules are
used
ENH: support different major versions for system openmpi
- for example, with
WM_MPLIB=SYSTEMOPENMPI2
defines FOAM_MPI=sys-openmpi2 and thus creates lib/sys-openmpi2
ENH: centralize handling of mpi as 'mpi-rules'
Before:
sinclude $(GENERAL_RULES)/mplib$(WM_MPLIB)
sinclude $(DEFAULT_RULES)/mplib$(WM_MPLIB)
ifeq (,$(FOAM_MPI_LIBBIN))
FOAM_MPI_LIBBIN := $(FOAM_LIBBIN)/$(FOAM_MPI)
endif
After:
include $(GENERAL_RULES)/mpi-rules
- also allows variants such as SYSTEMOPENMPI2 to be handled separately
