- drop plugin support for Qt4 (old paraview)
- handle upcoming changes in VTK version naming in CMake files
* VTK_MAJOR_VERSION becomes VTK_VERSION_MAJOR etc.
- this largely reverts 3f0f218d88 and 4ee65d12c4.
Consistent addressing with support for wrapped pointer types (eg,
autoPtr, std::unique_ptr) has proven to be less robust than desired.
Thus rescind HashTable iterator '->' dereferencing (from APR-2019).
A set of libraries and executables creating a workflow for performing
gradient-based optimisation loops. The main executable (adjointOptimisationFoam)
solves the flow (primal) equations, followed by the adjoint equations and,
eventually, the computation of sensitivity derivatives.
Current functionality supports the solution of the adjoint equations for
incompressible turbulent flows, including the adjoint to the Spalart-Allmaras
turbulence model and the adjoint to the nutUSpaldingWallFunction, [1], [2].
Sensitivity derivatives are computed with respect to the normal displacement of
boundary wall nodes/faces (the so-called sensitivity maps) following the
Enhanced Surface Integrals (E-SI) formulation, [3].

Integration into the official OpenFOAM release by OpenCFD
- Eg, with surface writers now in surfMesh, there are fewer libraries
depending on conversion and sampling.
COMP: regularize linkage ordering and avoid some implicit linkage (#1238)
- when running in serial but within a processor directory,
argList::globalPath() is to be used instead of Time.globalPath()
For other cases there is no difference.
- changed ensightOutput from a class solely comprising static methods to
a namespace and added in sub-namespaces Detail and Serial.
This makes it easier to "mix-in" functions at different levels.
Refactored and combined some serial/parallel code where possible.
The general ensightOutput namespace has now shifted to be in the
fileFormats lib, while leaving volField outputs in the conversion lib
and cloud outputs in the lagrangian-intermediate lib.
The ensightCloud namespace is now simply folded into the new
ensightOutput namespace.
These changes clean up some code, reduce fragmentation and
duplication and removes the previous libconversion dependency for
sampling.
- use int for ensight nTypes constexpr
Note: issue #1176 is unaffected except for the change in file name:
ensightOutputTemplates.C -> ensightOutputVolFieldTemplates.C
- provide relativePath() for argList and for Time.
These are relative to the case globalPath().
Eg,
Info<< "output: " << runTime.relativePath(outputFile) << nl;
- makes the intent clearer and avoids the need for additional
constructor casting. Eg,
labelList(10, Zero) vs. labelList(10, 0)
scalarField(10, Zero) vs. scalarField(10, scalar(0))
vectorField(10, Zero) vs. vectorField(10, vector::zero)
- change previous default (convert all faceZones unless -noFaceZones
specified) with the default behaviour to only convert face zones on
request.
- uses the '-faceZones' option as per foamToEnsight
- use cellCentres() instead of volField equivalent for vtk conversion
- make looping variables more consistent
- centralize the transcription of OpenFOAM -> vtk tuples
- provide default WM_DIR if not already set, to improve robustness if a
reduced environment is used
- add etc/ to WM_PROJECT_SITE search. This makes the site directory
structure consistent with the OpenFOAM structure.
Eg,
WM_PROJECT_SITE/etc/..
WM_PROJECT_SITE/bin/..
WM_PROJECT_SITE/platforms/..
- Don't set/export WM_OSTYPE. The default is POSIX and is properly
defaulted throughout, including in CMakeLists-OpenFOAM.txt (also for
Catalyst)
- removed reliance on ParaView_INCLUDE_DIR variable for conveying the
major.minor version information when compiling. This can be somewhat
fragile and also adds variable that is an unnecessary when running
(only used when compiling).
Instead use `have_pvplugin_support` function in paraviewFunctions
wmake script to determine the maj.min from the PV_PLUGIN_PATH
since we have already defined the output path there with paraview
maj.min numbering.
Can now build with paraview from the operating system,
provided that it has develop headers available.
ParaView_VERSION=system
In the etc/config.sh/paraview setup, the maj.min is taken from
the corresponding `paraview --version` output and used when
defining the PV_PLUGIN_PATH.
During the build, the include path taken from `paraview-config`
for a system installation, from the guess installation root
of the paraview binary, or ParaView_DIR otherwise.
NB: using a system ParaView for building runTimePostProcessing is unsupported.
- these types of builds appear to have various library resolution issues
(eg, libexpat not being loaded). Additionally, the build logic does
not yet cover this type of use case.
- cfindObject() for const pointer access.
- getObject() for mutable non-const pointer access, similar to the
objectRegistry::getObjectPtr()
- cfindObject(), findObject(), getObject() with template type access
to also check the headerClassName.
For example,
cfindObject("U") -> good
cfindObject<volVectorField>("U") -> good
cfindObject<volScalarField>("U") -> nullptr
This allows inversion of looping logic.
1) Obtain the names for a particular Type
for (const word& objName : objs.sortedNames<Type>())
{
const IOobject* io = objs[objName];
...
}
2) Use previously obtained names and apply to a particular Type
for (const word& objName : someListOfNames)
{
const IOobject* io = objs.cfindObject<Type>(objName);
if (io)
{
...
}
}
- vtkWrite with moving mesh was not updated the subsets properly,
which caused it to crash.
- foamToVTK -overwrite ignored for single region cases,
was working for multi-region cases
- minor documentation changes
