For example,
T
{
solver PBiCGStab;
preconditioner DILU;
tolerance 1e-6;
norm none;
}
STYLE: define defaultMaxIter, defaultTolerance directly in lduMatrix
- in situations where the simulation diverges, the ensight writing can
be incomplete. If the case file is updated prior to writing geometry
or fields, the generated case may refer to incomplete entries (which
make loading problematic).
NOTE: if multiple fields are sampled and written, this change cannot
entirely prevent case files addressing corrupt fields. For example,
1a. write U field, update case file with new times/fields
1b. write p field, update case file with new times/fields
2a. write U field, update case file with new times
2b. write p field, but fails
Since 2a already updates the case file with a new time-step entry
(for the U field), the case glob patterns will automatically include
the not-yet-written 'p' field. If this write fails with an
incomplete/corrupt field, the case file will still be addressing it!
- barycentric coordinates in interpolation (instead of x/y/z)
- ease U (velocity) requirement.
Needn't be named in the sampled fields.
- default tracking direction is 'forward'
In movePoints had some duplicated code but did not update the
lower level (polyPatch) areas. This caused scaling to be applied
multiple times (so only 1.0 would not be affected)
- the file removal cleanup, which makes reasonable sense for
redistribute mode, always forced the removal of the reconstructed
lagrangian fields (since all of the non-master fields are empty by
definition)!
Detect reconstruct mode (by using constructSize from the map) to
circumvent this logic.

This is on
- incompressible/pimpleFoam/laminar/mixerVesselAMI2D/mixerVesselAMI2D-topologyChange
- redistributePar -reconstruct
where the fvMesh::updateMesh does an early trigger of
mesh.phi() calculation
Specific to the VOF-to-lagrangian FO is to generate particles
which potentially do not relate to the mesh. So here they
are preserved instead of trying to locate them on the
reconstructed mesh. Note: this has the same effect
of actually copying the file...
speciesSorption is a zeroGradient BC which absorbs mass given by a first
order time derivative, absoprtion rate and an equilibrium value
calculated based on internal species values next to the wall.
patchCellsSource is a source fvOption which applies to the corresponding
species and apply the source calculated on the speciesSorption BC.
A new abstract virtual class was created to group BC's which
don't introduce a source to the matrix (i.e zeroGradient) but calculate
a mass sink/source which should be introduced into the matrix. This
is done through the fvOption patchCellsSource.
- this allows the "relocation" of sampled surfaces. For example,
to reposition into a different coordinate system for importing
into CAD.
- incorporate output scaling for all surface writer types.
This was previously done on an adhoc basis for different writers,
but with now included in the base-level so that all writers
can automatically use scale + transform.
Example:
formatOptions
{
vtk
{
scale 1000; // m -> mm
transform
{
origin (0.05 0 0);
rotation axisAngle;
axis (0 0 1);
angle -45;
}
}
}
in RASModelVariables were doing this by checking whether the
corresponding pointer was allocated. In some cases, however, even if the
field does not exist, the pointer is not null, leading to the wrong
output. Made the correspding functions virtual and overwritten their
return values in the derived classes. Kept the initial implementation in
base to facilitate the clone function.
in cases with more than one primal or adjoint solvers
TUT: removed all occurances of useSolverNameForFields
from the optimisation tutorials since it is now set
automatically.
in the sensitivity patches, symmetry::evaluate() needs access to the
internalField which does exist, leading to wrong memory access.
Fixed by specifying a calculated type fvPatchField for all patches when
creating a boundaryField<Type>
Using a symmetry(Plane) as a sensitivity patch is quite rare and
borderline wrong, but this provides a fix nonetheless.
The multiplier of grad(dxdb) is a volTensorField which, by itself, is
memory consuming. The function computing it though was sloppy in terms
of memory management, constituting the peak memory consumption during an
adjoint optimisation. Initial changes to remedy the problem include the
deallocation of some of the volTensorFields included in the computation
of grad(dxdb) once unneeded, the utilisation of volSymmTensorFields
instead of volTensorFields where possible and avoiding allocating some
unnecessary intermediate fields.
Actions to further reduce memory consumption:
- For historical reasons, the code computes/stores the transpose of
grad(dxdb), which is then transposed when used in the computation of
the FI or the ESI sensitivity derivatives. This redundant
transposition can be avoid, saving the allocation of an additional
volTensorField, but the changes need to permeate a number of places in
the code that contribute to grad(dxdb) (e.g. ATC, adjoint turbulence
models, adjoint MRF, etc).
- Allocation of unnecessary pointers in the objective class should be
avoided.
- ATCstandard, ATCUaGradU:
the ATC is now added as a dimensioned field and not as an fvMatrix
to UaEqn. This get rid of many unnecessary allocations.
- ATCstandard:
gradU is cached within the class to avoid its re-computation in
every adjoint iteration of the steady state solver.
- Inlined a number of functions within the primal and adjoint solvers.
This probably has a negligible effect since they likely were inlined
by the compiler either way.
- The momentum diffusivity at the boundary, used by the adjoint boundary
conditions, was computed for the entire field and, then, only the
boundary field of each adjoint boundary condition was used. If many
outlet boundaries exist, the entire nuEff field would be computed as
many times as the number of boundaries, leading to an unnecessary
computational overhead.
- Outlet boundary conditions (both pressure and velocity) use the local
patch gradient to compute their fluxes. This patch gradient requires
the computation of the adjacent cell gradient, which is done on the
fly, on a per patch basis. To compute this patch adjacent gradient
however, the field under the grad sign is interpolated on the entire
mesh. If many outlets exist, this leads to a huge computational
overhead. Solved by caching the interpolated field to the database and
re-using it, in a way similar to the caching of gradient fields (see
fvc::grad).
WIP: functions returning references to primal and adjoint boundary
fields within boundaryAdjointContributions seem to have a non-negligible
overhead for cases with many patches. No easy work-around here since
these are virtual and cannot be inlined.
WIP: introduced the code structure for caching the contributions to
the adjoint boundary conditions that depend only on the primal fields
and reusing. The process needs to be completed and evaluated, to make
sure that the extra code complexity is justified by gains in
performance.
is now appended by the name of the adjoint solver, if more than one
exist. This was necessary for an accurate continuation since, before
these changes, only the ma field of the last solver was written. As a
result, when restarting the first adjoint solver was reading the ma
field of the last one. No changes are needed in fvSolution and fvSchemes
w.r.t. the previous code version.
as a step towards machine-accuracy continuation of the optimisation
loop.
Additionally, control points are now written under the time/uniform
folder, to be in-line with rest of the code structure for continuation.
As a side-effect, the controlPointsDefinition in
constant/dynamicMeshDict does not need to be changed to 'fromFile'
anymore in order to perform the continuation. The 'fromFile' option is
still valid if the user wants to supply the control points manually but,
as with all other controlPointsDefinitions, it will be disregarded if the
proper file exists under the time/uniform/volumetricBSplines folder.
Before the commit, the sensitivity classes were receiving references of
the (incompressible) primal and adjoint variables. However, if
additional physics was added (energy equation, multiphase, etc), the
infrastructure wasn't convenient for accommodating (new terms in the FI
and E-SI formulations, new terms in the sensitivity map, etc).
Now, the sensitivity classes receive a reference to an
incompressibleAdjointSolver and receive the terms for the FI and
sensitivity maps through there. The latter is still WIP.
Modified adjointSimple to incorporate these changes as well.
Each solver now writes its sensitivity derivatives to its dictionary,
enabling also a binary format. If present, the sensitivities are then
re-read from the dictionary, avoiding thus possible loss of information
due to re-computation.
As a side-effect, sensitivities are computed after the completion of
each adjoint solver, instead of being computed after all adjoint solvers
have been completed.
for incompressible flows. The typical convention of appending the primal
field name with 'a' to form the adjoint field is followed for the
adjoint turbulent kinetic energy (i.e. 'ka') but since this would produce
an ugly variable name for the adjoint to omega (i.e. omegaa), the latter
is abbreviated to 'wa'.
The work is based on

with changes in the discretisation of
a number of differential operators and the formulation of the adjoint to
the wall functions employed by the primal model.
Regarding the latter, the code assumes (and differentiates) the default
behaviour of nutkWallFunction (i.e. nutWallFunction::blendingType::STEPWISE)
and omegaWallFunction (i.e. omegaWallFunction::blendingType::BINOMIAL2).
Due to the availability of a number of terms required for the
formulation of the wall function for ka, the latter is implemented
within adjointkOmegaSST itself, with contributions from objective functions
implemented within kaqRWallFunction. Wall functions for wa are
implemented within waWallFunction.
The initial implementation of the above-mentioned reference was
performed by Dr. Ioannis Kavvadias
the Jacobian of an objective function, defined at the boundary, wrt nut
and gradU. Also modified the current objectives that include such
contributions
- update the area-centres processor/processor information as part of
faMesh::init() after all of the global data and geometry data is
setup.
- improve flattenEdgeField helper to properly handle empty patches.
This change removes the false fails when testing edge-centre
redistribution (FULLDEBUG mode).
TUT: add filmPanel (rivulet) tutorial
- include constant/faMesh cleanup (cleanFaMesh) as part of standard

- simplify cleanPolyMesh function to now just warn about old
constant/polyMesh/blockMeshDict but not try to remove anything
- cleanup cellDist.vtu (decomposePar -dry-run) as well
ENH: foamRunTutorials - fallback to Allrun-parallel, Allrun-serial

- simpler to write for sampled cutting planes etc.
For example,
slice
{
type cuttingPlane;
point (0 0 0);
normal (0 0 1);
interpolate true;
}
instead of
slice
{
type cuttingPlane;
planeType pointAndNormal;
pointAndNormalDict
{
point (0 0 0);
normal (0 0 1);
}
interpolate true;
}
STYLE: add noexcept to some plane methods
- Previous state of the condition was largely inoperative
due to bugs and lack of functionalities
- New state of the condition is more versatile, elegant, robust and faster
ENH: turbulentDigitalFilter: add new scalar-based synthetic turbulence condition
- Realistic temperature and/or concentration fluctuations
can be generated based on given input statistics
- can specify rotations that are not "axes" in a compact form:
transform
{
origin (0 0 0);
rotation none;
}
transform
{
origin (0 0 0);
rotation axisAngle;
axis (0 0 1);
angle 45;
}
An expanded dictionary form also remains possible:
transform
{
origin (0 0 0);
rotation
{
type axisAngle;
axis (0 0 1);
angle 45;
}
}
STYLE: verbose deprecation for "coordinateRotation" keyword
- the "coordinateRotation" keyword was replaced by the "rotation"
keyword (OpenFOAM-v1812 and later) but was handled silently.
Now elevated to non-silent.
STYLE: alias lookups "axesRotation", "EulerRotation", "STARCDRotation"
- these warn and report the equivalent short form, which aids in
upgrading. Previously had silent lookups.
- append single character
- make append() methods void: methods are never chained anyhow
- refactor digest comparison (code reduction)
COMP: add overflow handling for OSHA1stream
- add overflow() method to the SHA1 streambuf. Previously could rely
on xsputn for adding to sha1 content, but streams now check pptr()
first to test for the buffering range and thus overflow() is needed.
- can be more intuitive to specify for some cases:
rotation
{
type euler;
order rollPitchYaw;
angles (0 20 45);
}
- refactor starcd rotation to reuse Euler ZXY ordering
(code reduction)
ENH: add -rotate-x, -rotate-y, -rotate-z for transformPoints etc
- easier to specify for simple rotations
- aligns calling signatures with wordList, for possible future
replacement
- drop construct from const char** (can use initializer_list instead)
ENH: replace hashedWordList with plain wordList in triSurfaceLoader
- additional hashing optimisation (and overhead) is not worth it for
the comparatively small lists of surfaces used.
- catch extra punctuation tokens in chemical equations
- catch unknown species
- simplify generation of reaction string (output)
ENH: allow access of solid concentrations from sub-classes (#2441)
- ensightWrite, vtkWrite, fv::cellSetOption
ENH: additional topoSet "ignore" action
- this no-op can be used to skip an action step, instead of removing
the entire entry
- this allows more flexibility when defining the location or intensity
of sources.
For example,
{
type scalarSemiImplicitSource;
volumeMode specific;
selectionMode all;
sources
{
tracer0
{
explicit
{
type exprField;
functions<scalar>
{
square
{
type square;
scale 0.0025;
level 0.0025;
frequency 10;
}
}
expression
#{
(hypot(pos().x() + 0.025, pos().y()) < 0.01)
? fn:square(time())
: 0
#};
}
}
}
}
ENH: SemiImplicitSource: handle "sources" with explicit/implicit entries
- essentially the same as injectionRateSuSp with Su/Sp,
but potentially clearer in purpose.
ENH: add Function1 good() method to define if function can be evaluated
- for example, provides a programmatic means of avoiding the 'none'
function
- avoid any operations for zero sources
- explicit sources are applied to the entire mesh can be added directly,
without an intermediate DimensionedField
- update some legacy faMatrix/fvMatrix methods that used Istream
instead of dictionary or dimensionSet for their parameters.
Simplify handling of tmps.
- align faMatrix methods with the updated their fvMatrix counterparts
(eg, DimensionedField instead of GeometricField for sources)
- similar to the geometric decomposition constraint,
allows a compositing selection of cells based on topoSet sources
which also include various searchableSurface mechanisms.
This makes for potentially easier placement of sources without
resorting to defining a cellSet.
ENH: support zone group selection for fv::cellSetOption and fa::faceSetOption
- select motion for the entire mesh, or restrict to a subset
of points based on a specified cellSet or cellZone(s).
Can now combine cellSet and cellZone specifications
(uses an 'or' combination).
- move consistent use of keyType and wordRe to allow regex selection,
possibly using zone groups
STYLE: remove duplicate code in solidBodyMotionSolver
- shorter lookup names for more consistency
ENH: accept point1/point2 as alternative to p1/p2 for sources
- better alignment with searchable specification
- refactor so that cylinderAnnulus sources derive directly from
cylinder sources (which handle an annulus as well).
Accept radius or outerRadius as synonyms.
STYLE: noexcept on topoBitSet access methods
DOC: update description for geometricConstraint
- in various situations with mesh regions it is also useful to
filter out or remove the defaultRegion name (ie, "region0").
Can now do that conveniently from the polyMesh itself or as a static
function. Simply use this
const word& regionDir = polyMesh::regionName(regionName);
OR mesh.regionName()
instead of
const word& regionDir =
(
regionName != polyMesh::defaultRegion
? regionName
: word::null
);
Additionally, since the string '/' join operator filters out empty
strings, the following will work correctly:
(polyMesh::regionName(regionName)/polyMesh::meshSubDir)
(mesh.regionName()/polyMesh::meshSubDir)
Reports cloud information for particles passing through a specified cell
zone.
Example usage:
cloudFunctions
{
particleZoneInfo1
{
type particleZoneInfo;
cellZone leftFluid;
// Optional entries
//writer vtk;
}
}
Results are written to file:
- \<case\>/postProcessing/lagrangian/\<cloudName\>/\<functionName\>/\<time\>
\# cellZone : leftFluid
\# time : 1.0000000000e+00
\#
\# origID origProc (x y z) time0 age d0 d mass0 mass
Where
- origID : particle ID
- origProc : processor ID
- (x y z) : Cartesian co-ordinates
- time0 : time particle enters the cellZone
- age : time spent in the cellZone
- d0 : diameter on entry to the cellZone
- d : current diameter
- mass0 : mass on entry to the cellZone
- mass : current mass
If the optional \c writer entry is supplied, cloud data is written in the
specified format.
During the run, output statistics are reported after the cloud solution,
e.g.:
particleZoneInfo:
Cell zone = leftFluid
Contributions = 257
Here, 'Contributions' refers to the number of incremental particle-move
contributions recorded during this time step. At write times, the output
is extended, e.g.:
particleZoneInfo:
Cell zone = leftFluid
Contributions = 822
Number of particles = 199
Written data to "postProcessing/lagrangian/reactingCloud1/
TUT: filter: add an example for the particleZoneInfo function object
- Previously, the multiFieldValue function object was limited to operate on
lists of fieldValue function objects.
- Any function objects that generate results can now be used, e.g.
pressureAverage
{
type multiFieldValue;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
operation average;
functions
{
inlet
{
type surfaceFieldValue;
operation areaAverage;
regionType patch;
name inlet;
fields (p);
writeFields no;
writeToFile no;
log no;
resultFields (areaAverage(inlet,p));
}
outlet
{
type surfaceFieldValue;
operation areaAverage;
regionType patch;
name outlet;
fields (p);
writeFields no;
writeToFile no;
log no;
}
average
{
type valueAverage;
functionObject testSample1;
fields (average(p));
writeToFile no;
log no;
}
}
}
TUT: cavity: add an example for the multiFieldValue function object
- now have both compactData(),compactLocalData(), compactRemoteData()
depending on where the compaction information is actually known.
The compactData() performs a consistent union of local and remote
values, which eliminates the danger of mapping to non-existent
locations but does require a double communication to setup.
Typically needed for point maps (for example).
The compactLocalData() and compactRemoteData() work on the
assumption that the source or target values are sufficent for
creating unique compact maps.
Can be used, for example, when compacting cell maps since there is
no possibility of a source cell being represented on different
target processors (ie, each cell is unique and only occurs once).
The existing compact() is equivalent to compactRemoteData()
and is now simply a redirect.
- use bitSet for defining compaction, but the existing compact()
continues to use a boolList (for code compatibility).
BUG: compaction in non-parallel mode didn't compact anything.
STYLE: compact ascii output for procAddressing
- simplify procAddressing read/write
- avoid accessing points in faMeshReconstructor.
Can rely on the patch meshPoints (labelList), which does not need
access to a pointField
- report number of points on decomposed mesh.
Can be useful additional information.
Additional statistics for finite area decomposition
- provide bundled reconstructAllFields for various reconstructors
- remove reconstructPar checks for very old face addressing
(from foam2.0 - ie, older than OpenFOAM itself)
- bundle all reading into fieldsDistributor tools,
where it can be reused by various utilities as required.
- combine decomposition fields as respective fieldsCache
which eliminates most of the clutter from decomposePar
and similfies reuse in the future.
STYLE: remove old wordHashSet selection (deprecated in 2018)
BUG: incorrect face flip handling for faMeshReconstructor
- a latent bug which is not yet triggered since the faMesh faces are
currently only definable on boundary faces (which never flip)
Geometry calculation scheme that performs geometry updates only in regions
where the mesh has changed, identified by comparing current and old points.
Example usage in fvSchemes:
geometry
{
type solidBody;
// Optional entries
// If set to false, update the entire mesh
partialUpdate yes;
// Cache the motion addressing (changed points, faces, cells etc)
cacheMotion yes;
}
The most frequent changes have been as follows.

scalarField& uTau = tuTau.ref();
to:
auto tuTau = tmp<scalarField>::New(patch().size(), Zero);
auto& uTau = tuTau.ref();
- Other changes involved the addition of - wherever approapriate -:

Previously, a nutWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField ref should be
created in epsilon, k, and omega wall functions to fetch various
common wall-function coefficients necessary to carry out and complete
local operations inside these wall functions.
However, this arrangement required the use of a nut wall function,
even when unnecessary, when any of non-nut wall functions are being used.
Therefore, some users had been redundantly restrained and
obstructed with rather obscure casting-error messages.
Also, the wall-function coefficients Cmu, kappa and E have been obtained
from the specified nutWallFunction in order to ensure that each patch
possesses the same set of values for these coefficients.
Although the motivation sounds reasonable, it has also been putting redundant
restraints on users and disregarding the specifics of each wall-function.
For example, the variation of epsilon in near-wall regions is usually very
steep and non-monotonic specific - an expert user may therefore want to use
an epsilon-specific coefficient, and this was not allowed by the previous
arrangement.
This commit introduces a new class (i.e. wallFunctionCoefficients) comprising
all common wall-function coefficients and yPlus calculations.
Previously, a number of wall functions were not not writing
their boundary-condition entries in the defacto order
(i.e. from type to value) while writing a field. For example:
<patchName>
{
lowReCorrection 1;
blending stepwise;
n 2;
type epsilonWallFunction; <!-- expected to be the first entry
value uniform 1; <!-- expected to be the last entry
}
Also, various wall functions have been writing out entries that
have not been being used by the wall function. For example:
<patchName>
{
type nutUSpaldingWallFunction;
...
blending stepwise; <!-- no blending treatment in nutUSpaldingWF
...
}
Additionally, various derived wall functions (e.g. atmOmegaWallFunction)
have been failing to write some of the inherited entries even though
these entries have been being used in carrying out wall-function calculations.
Taken these into consideration, wall functions have been reworked to obtain
reliable and consistent way of writing their traits while writing out a field.
- writeLocalEntries uses writeIfDifferent if constructed with getOrDefault.
ENH: simple faMeshSubset (zero-sized meshes only)
ENH: additional access methods for faMesh, primitive geometry mode
- wrapped walking of boundary edgeLabels as list of list
(similar to edgeFaces).
- primitive finiteArea geometry mode with reduced communication:
primarily interesting for decomposition/redistribution (#2436)
ENH: extra vtk debug outputs for checkFaMesh
- report per-processor sizes in the mesh summary
- similar functionality as newMesh etc.
Relocated to finiteVolume since there are no dynamicMesh dependencies.
- use simpler procAddressing (with updated mapDistributeBase).
separated from redistributePar
- returns UPtrList view (read-only or read/write) of the objects
- shorter names for IOobject checks: hasHeaderClass(), isHeaderClass()
- remove unused IOobject::isHeaderClassName(const word&) method.
The typed versions are preferable/recommended, but can still check
directly if needed:
(io.headerClassName() == "foo")
- additional distribute/reverseDistribute with specified commsType.
Improves flexibility.
- distribute with nullValue
- support move construct mapDistribute from mapDistributeBase
- refactor handling of schedules (as whichSchedule method) to
simplify code.
- renumberMap helper for working with compact sub maps
and renumberVisit for handling walk-ordered compaction.
COMP: make mapDistributeBase data private
- accessor methods are available - direct access is unnecessary
- mapDistribute : inherit mapDistributeBase constructors
STYLE: use List<labelPair>::null() for schedule placeholders
- clearer that they are doing nothing
- for int64 compilations this disambiguates between '0' as int32 (size)
or as bool 'false' for local processor validity
Eg,
IOList list(io, 0); <- With label-size 64: is this bool or label?
IOList list(io, Zero); <- Size = 0 (int32/int64), not a bool
- for indirect lists we use element-wise output streaming and read
back as a regular list. This approach cannot however work with
non-blocking mode - the receive buffers will simply not be filled
before attempting to read from them.
For contiguous data, the lowest overhead solution is to locally
flatten the indirect list and use the regular gather routines
for non-blocking mode. For non-contiguous data, can continue to
use the element-wise output, but cannot use non-blocking for it.
STYLE: use non-blocking consistently as default for globalIndex gather(s)
- most of the front-facing code was already using non-blocking,
but there were a few low-level routines defaulting to scheduled
(but never relied upon in the code).
- previously filtered on the existence of area fields, but with
faMesh::TryNew this is not required anymore.
STYLE: enable -verbose for various parallel utilities (consistency)
- introduced UList<bool>::operator()(label) as part of bf0b3d8872
but with gcc-4.8.5 this participates in operator resolution even
for non-bool lists!!
Partial revert until this predicate handling is really required.
- use DynamicList instead of List in the cache, which reduces the
number of allocations occuring each time.
- since the cached times are stored in sorted order, first check if the
new time is greater than the last list entry. Can then simply append
without performing a binary search and can obviously also skip any
subsequent sorting.
STYLE: add noexcept to Instant methods, declare in header (like Tuple2)
- as part of #2358 the writing was changed to be lazy.
Which means that files are only created before they are actually
written, which helps avoid flooding the filesystem if sample-only
is required and also handles case such as "rho.*" where the sampled
fields are not known from the objectRegistry at startup.
- now create any new files using the startTime value, which means they
are easier to find but still retains the lazy construct.
Don't expect any file collisions with this, but there could be some
corner cases where the user has edited to remove fields (during
runtime) and then re-edits to add them back in. In this case the
file pointers would be closed but reopened later and overwriting
the old probed values. This could be considered a feature or a bug.
BUG: bad indexing for streamlines (fixes#2454)
- a cut-and-paste error
- only wrap compiler calls (not things like flex/bison)
- avoid single quoted '&&' (causes syntax errors)
STYLE: report WM_COMPILE_CONTROL value in top-level Allwmake
- relocate templating to factory method 'New'.
Adds provisions for more general re-use.
- expose processor topology in globalMesh as topology()
- wrap proc->patch lookup as processorTopology::procPatchLookup method
(failsafe). May consider using Map<label> for its storage in the
future.
- Uses a refPtr to reference external content.
Useful (for example) when writing data without copying.
Reading into external locations is not implemented
(no current requirement for that).
* IOFieldRef -> IOField
* IOListRef -> IOList
* IOmapDistributePolyMeshRef -> IOmapDistributePolyMesh
Eg,
labelList addressing = ...;
io.rename("cellProcAddressing");
IOListRef<label>(io, addressing).write();
Or,
primitivePatch patch = ...;
IOFieldRef<vector>(io, patch.localPoints()).write();
- the values from non-overlapping blocks were simply ignored,
which meant that ('111111111111' & '111111') would not mask out
the unset values at all.
- similar oddities in other operations (|=, ^= etc)
where the original implementation tried hard to avoid touching the
sizing at all, but now better resolved as follows:
- '|=' : Set may grow to accommodate new 'on' bits.
- '^=' : Set may grow to accommodate new 'on' bits.
- '-=' : Never changes the original set size.
- '&=' : Never changes the original set size.
Non-overlapping elements are considered 'off'.
These definitions are consistent with HashSet behaviour
and also ensures that (a & b) == (b & a)
ENH: improve short-circuiting within bitSet ops
- in a few places can optimise by checking for none() instead of
empty() and avoid unnecessary block operations.
ENH: added bitSet::resize_last() method
- as the name says: resizes to the last bit set.
A friendlier way of writing `resize(find_last()+1)`
- uniq() : creates an IndirectList with duplicated entries
filtered out
- subset() : creates an IndirectList with positions that satisfy
a condition predicate.
- subset_if() : creates an IndirectList with values that satisfy a
given predicate.
An indirect subset will be cheaper than creating a subset copy
of the original data, and also allows modification.
STYLE: combine UIndirectList.H into UIndirectList.H (reduce file clutter)
- the sorted() method fills a UPtrList with sorted entries. In some
places this can provide a more convenient means of traversing a
HashTable in consistent order, without the extra step of creating
a sortedToc(). The sorted() method with a UPtrList will also have
a lower overhead than creating any sortedToc() or toc() since it is
list of pointers and not full copies of the keys.
Instead of this:
HashTable<someType> table = ...;
for (const word& key : table.sortedToc())
{
Info<< key << " => " << table[key] << nl;
}
can write this:
for (const auto& iter : table.sorted())
{
Info<< iter.key() << " => " << iter.val() << nl;
}
STYLE:
- declare hash entry key 'const' since it is immutable
- local writeHeaderEntry helper was not marked as file-scope static.
- use do/while to simplify handling of padding spaces
ENH: IOobject - copy construct, resetting name and local component
- when copying with a new local component, this is simpler than
constructing from all of the components, which was previously the
only possibility for setting a new local component.
- commonly used, only depends on routines defined in UList
(don't need the rest of ListOps for it).
ENH: implement boolList::operator() const
- allows use as a predicate functor, as per bitSet and labelHashSet
GIT: combine SubList, UList into List directory (intertwined concepts)
STYLE: default initialize DynamicList instead of with size 0
- specifies the number of consecutive cells to assign to the same
randomly chosen processor. Can be used to have a less extremely
random distribution for testing possible breaking points.
Eg,
method random;
coeffs
{
agglom 4;
}
- Add finiteArea cellID (actually face ids) / faceLabel and procID
for foamToVTK with -write-ids. Useful when this type of information
is needed.
- Arbitrary number of outlets can be connected to a single inlet
- Each inlet can be connected to different and arbitrary
combination of outlets
- Each outlet-inlet connection has:
- Optional filtration fraction as a Function1 type
- Optional offset as a Function1 type (i.e. adding/substracting a substance)
- Optional time delay (from outlet to inlet) as a Function1 type
- Each inlet has an optional base inlet-field as a PatchFunction1 type
The blendingFactor function object overwrites the DEShybrid:Factor
field internally when blendedSchemeBase debug flag is active.
However, users are allowed to write out the original DEShybrid:Factor
field by executing the writeObjects function object before
any blendingFactor function object execution.
- direct construct and reset method for creating a zero-sized (dummy)
subMesh. Has no exposed faces and no parallel synchronization
required.
- core mapping (interpolate) functionality with direct handling
of subsetting in fvMeshSubset (src/finiteVolume).
Does not use dynamicMesh topology changes
- two-step subsetting as fvMeshSubsetter (src/dynamicMesh).
Does use dynamicMesh topology changes.
This is apparently only needed by the subsetMesh application itself.
DEFEATURE: remove deprecated setLargeCellSubset() method
- was deprecated JUL-2018, now removed (see issue #951)
- allows restricted evaluation to specific coupled patch types.
Code relocated/refactored from redistributePar.
STYLE: ensure use of waitRequests() also corresponds to nonBlocking
ENH: additional copy/move construct GeometricField from DimensionedField
STYLE: processorPointPatch owner()/neighbour() as per processorPolyPatch
STYLE: orientedType with bool cast operator and noexcept
- move construct from components. Construct with optional IO control
- separate init() method (as per polyMesh) to delay evaluation of
globalData and base geometry.
- faMesh removeFiles method
ENH: faBoundaryMeshEntries for reading faBoundary files without a mesh
ENH: adjust debug output for {fa,fae,fv,fvs}patchField::New
- add alternative constraint type selection for faePatchField.
- unify handling of "patchType" reading.
Make less noisy when reporting dictionary defaults.
- allows reuse by finiteArea, for example.
- simplify edge looping with face thisLabel/nextLabel method
ENH: additional storage checks for mesh weights (faMesh + fvMesh)
- allow finite-area field decomposition without edge weights.
STYLE: use tmp New in various places. Simpler updateGeom check
STYLE: remove spurious (no-op) processor boundary evaluations
- boundary fields for faceAreaCentres and edgeCentres had no-op
initEvaluate/evaluate pair on processor boundaries.
Now consistent with each other and with how finiteVolume is defined.
STYLE: add comments about which private methods trigger communication
- reduce the amount of communication when checking zones and patches
by performing the synchonization check on the gathered strings
(master only) and reduce or broadcast the result.
STYLE: simplify coupled() checks depending only on parRun
* lessEqOp -> lessEqualOp
* greaterEqOp -> greaterEqualOp
to avoid ambiguitity with other forms such as 'plusEqOp' where the
'Eq' implies an assigment. The name change also aligns better with
C++ <functional> names such as std::less_equal, std::greater_equal
ENH: simple labelRange predicates gt0/ge0/lt0/le0
- mirrors scalarRange tests.
Lower overhead than using labelMinMax::ge(0) etc since it does not
create an intermediate (is stateless) and can be used as a constexpr
- 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
Eg,
export WM_COMPILER=Clang130
export WM_COMPILE_CONTROL="version=13.0 +lld"
- also support the mold linker (+mold) for clang
STYLE: report as 'link' stage instead of 'ld' in short messages
- 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) ...
- gather/scatter types of operations can avoid AllToAll communication
and use simple MPI gather (or scatter) to establish the receive sizes.
New methods: finishedGathers() / finishedScatters()
BUG: masterUncollatedFileOperation checking of file-size
- used Foam:fileSize check to decide on scheduled/nonBlocking but this
was being done on all ranks and subsequently broadcast.
Now avoid unnecessary filesystem access on non-master ranks.
- both schemes and solutions data are treated as MUST_READ_IF_MODIFIED
even if the requested readOption is nominally MUST_READ or
READ_IF_PRESENT, but now delay this change.
- do not need contruct or move assign from SortableList.
Rarely (never) used and can simply treat like a normal list
by applying shrink beforehand.
- make append() methods return void instead of returning self, which
makes it easier to derive from. Having them return self was a bit of
an original design mistake.
Chaining appends do not actually occur anywhere. Even if they were
to be used, would not want to rely on them (fear of slicing on any
derived classes).
BUG: IndirectList iterator comparison loses constness
- eliminate redundant size_ accounting
- drop extra 'Container' template parameter and replace functionality
with more flexible pack/unpack methods.
There is also a pack() method that handles indirect lists of lists
that can be used, for example, to pack a patch slice of faces.
Drop the 'operator()' method in favour of unpack to expose and properly
document the conversion. Should revisit the corresponding code in
some places for optimization potential.
- align some method names with globalIndex:
totalSize(), maxSize() etc
- less communication than gatherList/scatterList
ENH: refine send granularity in Pstream::exchange
STYLE: ensure PstreamBuffers and defaultCommsType agree
- simpler loops for lduSchedule
- can restrict calculation of D32 and other spray properties to a
subset of parcels. Uses a predicate selection mechanism similar to
vtkCloud etc.
ENH: code cleanup in scalar predicates
- pass by value not reference in predicates
- additional assign() method to refactor common code
- with the special setFormat "probes", all of the sampled sets are
treated more similarly to probes, with an ensemble output to raw
probed format.
This is of course less useful when the number of sampled points
becomes very large.
- can now specify sampled sets as dictionary entries instead of a list
entry.
can now use: sets { ... }
instead of: sets ( ... );
This is similar to sampled surfaces and makes it easier to
manage with dictionary manipulation tools.
TUT: update to use writeTime instead of outputTime
- in v2112 the functionObject results were only delivering values from
the last set listed (ie, overwritten).
Now that the values are properly scoped by the name of the set itself
Eg, `average(lines,p)` for the average for 'lines' set, existing
workflows will break.
It thus makes reasonble sense to also handle results without a
qualifier as ensemble values.
average(p) // Ensemble average of all listed sets
- the very old 'writer' class was fully stateless and always templated
on an particular output type.
This is now replaced with a 'coordSetWriter' with similar concepts
as previously introduced for surface writers (#1206).
- writers change from being a generic state-less set of routines to
more properly conforming to the normal notion of a writer.
- Parallel data is done *outside* of the writers, since they are used
in a wide variety of contexts and the caller is currently still in
a better position for deciding how to combine parallel data.
ENH: update sampleSets to sample on per-field basis (#2347)
- sample/write a field in a single step.
- support for 'sampleOnExecute' to obtain values at execution
intervals without writing.
- support 'sets' input as a dictionary entry (as well as a list),
which is similar to the changes for sampled-surface and permits use
of changeDictionary to modify content.
- globalIndex for gather to reduce parallel communication, less code
- qualify the sampleSet results (properties) with the name of the set.
The sample results were previously without a qualifier, which meant
that only the last property value was actually saved (previous ones
overwritten).
For example,
```
sample1
{
scalar
{
average(line,T) 349.96521;
min(line,T) 349.9544281;
max(line,T) 350;
average(cells,T) 349.9854619;
min(cells,T) 349.6589286;
max(cells,T) 350.4967271;
average(line,epsilon) 0.04947733869;
min(line,epsilon) 0.04449639927;
max(line,epsilon) 0.06452856475;
}
label
{
size(line,T) 79;
size(cells,T) 1720;
size(line,epsilon) 79;
}
}
```
ENH: update particleTracks application
- use globalIndex to manage original parcel addressing and
for gathering. Simplify code by introducing a helper class,
storing intermediate fields in hash tables instead of
separate lists.
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
- the regionSizeDistribution largely retains separate writers since
the utility of placing sum/dev/count for all fields into a single file
is questionable.
- the streamline writing remains a "soft" upgrade, which means that
scalar and vector fields are still collected a priori and not
on-the-fly. This is due to how the streamline infrastructure is
currently handled (should be upgraded in the future).
Automatic hole closure:
- introduces 'holeToFace' topoSet source
- used when detecting a 'leak-path'
- creates additional baffles to close the leak
Multi-stage layer addition:
- Can add layers in multiple passes
See issues: #2403, #2404
- for metis-like graphs there is no guarantee that a zero-sized graph
has an offsets list with size 1 or size 0, so always use
numCells = max(0, xadj.size()-1)
this was already done in most places, but missed in the
decomposeGeneral method
STYLE: use sumOp<label>() instead of plusOp<label>()
- the internal data are contiguous so can broadcast size and internals
directly without an intermediate stream.
ENH: split out broadcast time for profilingPstream information
STYLE: minor Pstream cleanup
- UPstream::commsType_ from protected to private, since it already has
inlined noexcept getters/setters that should be used.
- don't pass unused/unneed tag into low-level MPI reduction templates.
Document where tags are not needed
- had Pstream::broadcast instead of UPstream::broadcast in internals
- used Pstream::maxCommsSize (bytes) for the lower limit when sending.
This would have send more data on each iteration than expected based
on maxCommsSize and finish with a number of useless iterations.
Was generally not a serious bug since maxCommsSize (if used) was
likely still far away from the MPI limits and exchange() is primarily
harnessed by PstreamBuffers, which is sending character data
(ie, number of elements and number of bytes is identical).
- For v2112 and earlier: pre-assembled lists of particles
to be transferred and target patch on a per processor basis.
Apart from memory overhead of assembling the lists this adds
allocations/de-allocation when building linked-lists.
- Now stream particle transfer tuples directly into PstreamBuffers.
Use a local cache of UOPstream wrappers for the formatters
(since there are potentially many particles being shifted about).
On the receiving size, read out tuple-wise.
- Communication on transfers now restricted to the immediate
neighbours instead of using an all-to-all to exchange sizes.
Applied to Cloud::move and RecycleInteraction
- now largely encapsulated using PstreamBuffers methods,
which makes it simpler to centralize and maintain
- avoid building intermediate structures when sending data,
remove unused methods/data
TUT: parallel version of depthCharge2D
STYLE: minor update in ProcessorTopology
- PstreamBuffers nProcs() and allProcs() methods to recover the rank
information consistent with the communicator used for construction
- allowClearRecv() methods for more control over buffer reuse
For example,
pBufs.allowClearRecv(false);
forAll(particles, particlei)
{
pBufs.clear();
fill...
read via IPstream(..., pBufs);
}
This preserves the receive buffers memory allocation between calls.
- finishedNeighbourSends() method as compact wrapper for
finishedSends() when send/recv ranks are identically
(eg, neighbours)
- hasSendData()/hasRecvData() methods for PstreamBuffers.
Can be useful for some situations to skip reading entirely.
For example,
pBufs.finishedNeighbourSends(neighProcs);
if (!returnReduce(pBufs.hasRecvData(), orOp<bool>()))
{
// Nothing to do
continue;
}
...
On an individual basis:
for (const int proci : pBufs.allProcs())
{
if (pBufs.hasRecvData(proci))
{
...
}
}
Also conceivable to do the following instead (nonBlocking only):
if (!returnReduce(pBufs.hasSendData(), orOp<bool>()))
{
// Nothing to do
pBufs.clear();
continue;
}
pBufs.finishedNeighbourSends(neighProcs);
...
- a somewhat specialized use case, but can be useful when there are
many ranks with sparse communication but for which the access
pattern is established during inner loops.
PstreamBuffers pBufs(Pstream::commsTypes::nonBlocking);
pBufs.allowClearRecv(false);
PtrList<OPstream> output(Pstream::nProcs());
while (condition)
{
// Rewind existing streams
forAll(output, proci)
{
auto* osptr = output.get(proci);
if (osptr)
{
(*osptr).rewind();
}
}
for (Particle& p : myCloud)
{
label toProci = ...;
// Get or create output stream
auto* osptr = output.get(toProci);
if (!osptr)
{
osptr = new OPstream(toProci, pBufs);
output.set(toProci, osptr);
}
// Append more data...
(*osptr) << p;
}
pBufs.finishedSends();
... reads
}
- split off a Pstream::genericBroadcast() which uses UOPBstream during
serialization and UOPBstream during de-serialization.
This function will not normally be used directly by callers, but
provides a base layer for higher-level broadcast calls.
- low-level UPstream broadcast of string content.
Since std::string has length and contiguous content, it is possible
to handle directly by the following:
1. broadcast size
2. resize
3. broadcast content when size != 0
Although this is a similar amount of communication as the generic
streaming version (min 1, max 2 broadcasts) it is more efficient
by avoiding serialization/de-serialization overhead.
- handle broadcast of List content distinctly.
Allows an optimized path for contiguous data, similar to how
std::string is handled (broadcast size, resize container, broadcast
content when size != 0), but can revert to genericBroadcast (streamed)
for non-contiguous data.
- make various scatter variants simple aliases for broadcast, since
that is what they are doing behind the scenes anyhow:
* scatter()
* combineScatter()
* listCombineScatter()
* mapCombineScatter()
Except scatterList() which remains somewhat different.
Beyond the additional (size == nProcs) check, the only difference to
using broadcast(List<T>&) or a regular scatter(List<T>&) is that
processor-local data is skipped. So leave this variant as-is.
STYLE: rename/prefix implementation code with 'Pstream'
- better association with its purpose and provides a unique name
- reduces later surprises and simplifies effort for the caller
- more flexible globalIndex scatter with auto-sized return field.
- Avoid communication for scattering into zero-sized fields.
- the data front for isoAdvection can be particularly sparse and at
higher processor counts there is an advantage to avoiding all-to-all
communication for the PstreamBuffers exchange
Based on code changes from T.Aoyagi(RIST), A.Azami(RIST)
- use MPI_Bcast intrinsic instead of manual tree to reduce the overall
number of messages.
Old behaviour can be re-enabled with
`#define Foam_Pstream_scatter_nobroadcast`
- The idea of broadcast streams is to replace multiple master to
subProcs communications with a single MPI_Bcast.
if (Pstream::master())
{
OPBstream toAll(Pstream::masterNo());
toAll << data;
}
else
{
IPBstream fromMaster(Pstream::masterNo());
fromMaster >> data;
}
// vs.
if (Pstream::master())
{
for (const int proci : Pstream::subProcs())
{
OPstream os(Pstream::commsTypes::scheduled, proci);
os << data;
}
}
else
{
IPstream is(Pstream::commsTypes::scheduled, Pstream::masterNo());
is >> data;
}
Can simply use UPstream::broadcast() directly for contiguous data
with known lengths.
Based on ideas from T.Aoyagi(RIST), A.Azami(RIST)
- native MPI min/max/sum reductions for float/double
irrespective of WM_PRECISION_OPTION
- native MPI min/max/sum reductions for (u)int32_t/(u)int64_t types,
irrespective of WM_LABEL_SIZE
- replace rarely used vector2D sum reduction with FixedList as a
indicator of its intent and also generalizes to different lengths.
OLD:
vector2D values; values.x() = ...; values.y() = ...;
reduce(values, sumOp<vector2D>());
NEW:
FixedList<scalar,2> values; values[0] = ...; values[1] = ...;
reduce(values, sumOp<scalar>());
- allow returnReduce() to use native reductions. Previous code (with
linear/tree selector) would have bypassed them inadvertently.
ENH: added support for MPI broadcast (for a memory span)
ENH: select communication schedule as a static method
- UPstream::whichCommunication(comm) to select linear/tree
communication instead of ternary or
if (Pstream::nProcs() < Pstream::nProcsSimpleSum) ...
STYLE: align nProcsSimpleSum static value with etc/controlDict override
- refactor as an MPI-independent base class.
Add bufferIPC{send,recv} private methods for construct/destruct.
Eliminates code duplication from two constructor forms and reduces
additional constructor definitions in dummy library.
- add PstreamBuffers access methods, refactor common finish sends
code, tweak member packing
ENH: resize_nocopy for processorLduInterface buffers
- content is immediately overwritten
STYLE: cull unneeded includes in processorFa*
- handled by processorLduInterface
- this can be used to apply a uniform field level to remove from
a sampled field. For example,
fieldLevel
{
"p.*" 1e5; // Absolute -> gauge [Pa]
T 273.15; // [K] -> [C]
U #eval{ 10/sqrt(3) }; // Uniform mag(U)=10
}
After the fieldLevel has been removed, any fieldScale is applied.
For example
fieldScale
{
"p.*" 0.01; // [Pa] -> [mbar]
}
The fieldLevel for vector and tensor fields may still need some
further refinement.
The runTimeControl function object can activate further function objects using
triggers. Previously the trigger index could only advance; this change set
allows users to set smaller values to enable function object recycling, e.g.
Repeat for N cycles:
1. average the pressure at a point in space
2. when the average stabilises, run for a further 100 iterations
3. set a new patch inlet velocity
- back to (1)
- Removes old default behaviour that only permitted an increase in the
trigger level. This type of 'ratcheting' mechanism (if required) is
now the responsibility of the derived function object.
- notably affects writing continuous data in binary. If generating a
compound token (eg, List<label>), need to add in the size prefix
otherwise it cannot actually be parsed properly as a List.
BUG: bad fallthrough for compound reading (FixedList)
- the branch was likely never reached, but would have attempted to
read twice due to a bad fall-through condition.
GIT: relocate globalIndex (is independent of mesh)
STYLE: include label/scalar Fwd in contiguous.H
STYLE: unneed commSchedule include in GeometricField
- as a side-effect of changes to probes, the file pointers are not
automatically creating when reading the dictionary but delayed
until prepare(WRITE_ACTION) is called.
This nuance was missed in thermoCoupleProbes.
- added in special handling for monitoring controlDict.
Since controlDict is an unwatchedIOdictionary (not IOdictionary) and
not registered either, the usual objectRegistry caching is not
available. Instead, access directly from Time.
Left the balance of the file handling largely intact (for handling
unregistered dictionaries) but could potentially revisit in the
future and attempt master-only file access if required. However,
most other IOdictionary types will be registered, otherwise the
READ_IF_MODIFIED mechanism would not really work properly.
- when used for example with wallShearStress, the stress field is
initially created as incompressible but later updated with the
correct compressible/incompressible dimensions.
If this field is sampled as a surface and stored on the registry
the dimensions should be reset() and not '=' assigned, since that
causes a dimension check which will obviously fail.
- add writer support for VERTICES
- updated use of globalIndex
ENH: add base vtk writer for points/verts/lines
STYLE: noexcept, explicit constructors etc
- when used with *any* alphaField and normalised (the usual case)
would largely give a 0-1 corresponding to the min/max of the first
component, but could also yield negative values.
- if the alpha field corresponds identically to colour field, it is
readily possible to combine as into RGBA sequences. However, if the
fields are different it potentially means referencing an opacity
field that has not yet been sampled. This impedes using the format
for a streaming sampler without additional overhead and/or rewriting
the alpha channel later.
- scene
- write with fileName, additional getMesh accessor
- addColourToMesh accepts an alpha field size 1 as a constant
alpha value
- sceneWriter wrapper
ENH: improve gltf handling of colour and alpha specification
- accept plain input directly.
Eg,
colour (1 0 1);
vs
colour uniform;
colourValue (1 0 1);
- use field magnitude for colouring of non-scalar fields.
Eg, having three different colour maps for a vector field simply
does not help much with visualisation.
- meshTools is the first layer in which coordSet is actually needed
STYLE: rename writer implementations in advance of upcoming changes (#2347)
- simplifies tracing of code changes (git blame)
- supports sampling/probing of values to obtain min/max/average/size
at execution intervals without writing any output or generating
output directories.
- 'verbose' option for additional output
- min, max, average and sample size results now stored in
functionObjectProperties similar to sampledSets, e.g. for field p
- min(p)
- max(p)
- average(p)
- size(p)
ENH: provide fieldTypes::surface names (as per fieldTypes::volume)
ENH: reduce number of files for surface fields
- combine face and point field declarations/definitions,
simplify typeName definitions
- used low-level MPI gather, but the wrapping routine contains an
additional safety check for is_contiguous which is not defined for
various std::pair<..> combination.
So std::pair<label,vector> (which is actually contiguous, but not
declared as is_contiguous) would falsely trip the check.
Avoid by simply gathering unbundled values instead.
- do not need STRINGIFY macros in ragel code
- remove wordPairHashTable.H and use equivalent wordPairHashes.H instead
STYLE: replace addDictOption with explicit option
- the usage text is otherwise misleading
GIT: combine Pair/Tuple2 directories
- unused in regular OpenFOAM code
- POSIX version uses deprecated gethostbyname()
- Windows version never worked
COMP: localize, noexcept on internal OSspecific methods
STYLE: support fileName::Type SYMLINK and LINK as synonyms
The logic was not maintaining consistent sets of constraints
on different processors. A single processor with a full
match (very easy with 0 local faces) would invalidate
adding the constraint.
- for contiguous data, added mpiGatherOp() to complement the
gatherOp() static method
- the gather ops (static methods) populate the globalIndex on the
master only (not needed on other procs) for reduced communication
- rename inplace gather methods to include 'inplace' in their name.
Regular gather methods return the gathered data directly, which
allows the following:
const scalarField mergedWeights(globalFaces().gather(wghtSum));
vs.
scalarField mergedWeights;
globalFaces().gather(wghtSum, mergedWeights());
or even:
scalarField mergedWeights;
List<scalarField> allWeights(Pstream::nProcs());
allWeights[Pstream::myProcNo()] = wghtSum;
Pstream::gatherList(allWeights);
if (Pstream::master())
{
mergedWeights =
ListListOps::combine<scalarField>
(
allWeights, accessOp<scalarField>()
);
}
- add parRun guards on various globalIndex gather methods
(simple copies or no-ops in serial) to simplify the effort for callers.
ENH: reduce code effort for clearing linked-lists
ENH: adjust linked-list method name
- complement linked-list append() method with prepend() method
instead of 'insert', which is not very descriptive
Assumes that gap is formed when both surfaces agree i.e.
it takes the minimum distance of the two. This means that
any wave only needs to be propagated according to the
originating surface.
- set() was silently deprecated in favour of reset() FEB-2018
since the original additional check for overwriting an existing
pointer was never used. The reset(...) name is more consistent
with unique_ptr, tmp etc.
Now emit deprecations for set().
- use direct test for autoPtr, tmp instead of valid() method.
More consistent with unique_ptr etc.
STYLE: eliminate redundant ptr() use on cloned quantities
- occurs with newer gcc on ubuntu impish (gcc-11.2.0), but may perhaps
actually be related to `-flto=auto` or to the destruction order of
the static variables (race condition?).
Leaving the compat table around for automatic cleanup does not
impact on other lookups (which are nullptr checked anyhow).
- partial revert for 13740de427 (#2158)
MS-MPI does not currently have a MPI_Comm_create_group(),
so keep using MPI_Comm_create() there.
Only affects multi-world simulations.
CONFIG: retain dummy version of libPstream.dll
- retain as libPstream.dll-dummy so that it is available for
manual replacement of the regular libPstream.dll (#2290)
Keep extra copy of libPstream.dll as libPstream.dll-msmpi
(for example) for manual replacement.
- this is now consistent with what the internal
"get(Vol|Surface|Point)Field" methods deliver
(ie, zero-gradient for volume, calculated otherwise).
Still some slight inconsistencies with what the internal
"new(Vol|Surface|Point)Field" methods deliver however.
There they are always "calculated"
Enables particles to interact with mesh faces (decsribed using faceZones).
faceInteraction1
{
type faceInteraction;
faceZones
(
(blockageFaces stick)
// (blockageFaces escape)
// (blockageFaces rebound) // not applicable for this test case (!)
);
dMin 0;
dMax 1;
}
The faceZones entry is a list of (faceZoneName interactionType), where
interaction type is either stick, escape or rebound.
The parcel initial velocity can now be set using the new `velocityType`
entry, taking one of the following options:
- fixedValue : (default) same as earlier versions, requires U0
- patchValue : velocity set to seed patch face value
- zeroGradient : velocity set to seed patch face adjacent cell value
Example usage:
model1
{
type patchInjection;
massTotal 1;
SOI 0;
parcelBasisType mass;
patch cylinder;
duration 10;
parcelsPerSecond 100;
velocityType patchValue;
//velocityType zeroGradient;
//U0 (-10 0 0);
flowRateProfile constant 1;

The turbulentTemperatureCoupledBaffleMixed boundary condition
has been superseded by the turbulentTemperatureRadCoupledMixed condition
TUT: injectorPipe: remove an unused entry
TUT: waveMakerFlap: remove uncompressed entry
ENH: Copying alphatLiquid value to alphatVapour for boiling regimes.
When using correlations for boiling regimes the phases next to the
wall are not relevant to these. Therefore the alphat is copied
accordingly from the alphat for liquid.
Only in the sub-cooling RPI model the partition of heat flux
between vapour and liquid is considered.
Calculates propeller performance and wake field properties.
Controlled by executeControl:
- Propeller performance
- Thrust coefficient, Kt
- Torque coefficient, 10*Kq
- Advance coefficient, J
- Open water efficiency, etaO
- Written to postProcessing/<name>/<time>/propellerPerformance.dat
Controlled by writeControl:
- Wake field text file
- Wake: 1 - UzMean/URef
- Velocity in cylindrical coordinates at xyz locations
- Written to postProcessing/<name>/<time>/wake.dat
- Axial wake field text file
- 1 - Uz/URef at r/R and angle
- Written to postProcessing/<name>/<time>/axialWake.dat
- Velocity surface
- Written to postProcessing/<name>/surfaces/time>/disk.<fileType>
Usage
Example of function object specification:
\verbatim
propellerInfo1
{
type propellerInfo;
libs (forces);
writeControl writeTime;
patches ("propeller.*");
URef 5; // Function1 type; 'constant' form shown here
rho rhoInf; // incompressible
rhoInf 1.2;
// Optionally write propeller performance data
writePropellerPerformance yes;
// Propeller data:
// Radius
radius 0.1;
rotationMode specified; // specified | MRF
// rotationMode = specified:
origin (0 -0.1 0);
n 25.15;
axis (0 1 0);
// Optional reference direction for angle (alpha) = 0
alphaAxis (1 0 0);
//// rotationMode = mrf
//// MRF MRFZoneName;
//// (origin, n and axis retrieved from MRF model)
// Optionally write wake text files
// Note: controlled by writeControl
writeWakeFields yes;
// Sample plane (disk) properties
// Note: controlled by writeControl
sampleDisk
{
surfaceWriter vtk;
r1 0.05;
r2 0.2;
nTheta 36;
nRadial 10;
interpolationScheme cellPoint;
errorOnPointNotFound false;
}
}
\endverbatim
Where the entries comprise:
\table
Property | Description | Required | Deflt value
type | Type name: propellerInfo | yes |
log | Write to standard output | no | no
patches | Patches included in the forces calculation | yes |
p | Pressure field name | no | p
U | Velocity field name | no | U
rho | Density field name | no | rho
URef | Reference velocity | yes |
rotationMode | Rotation mode (see below) | yes |
origin | Sample disk centre | no* |
n | Revolutions per second | no* |
axis | Propeller axis | no* |
alphaAxis | Axis that defines alpha=0 dir | no |
MRF | Name of MRF zone | no* |
originOffset | Origin offset for MRF mode | no | (0 0 0)
writePropellerPerformance| Write propeller performance text file | yes |
writeWakeFields | Write wake field text files | yes |
surfaceWriter | Sample disk surface writer | no* |
r1 | Sample disk inner radius | no | 0
r2 | Sample disk outer radius | no* |
nTheta | Divisions in theta direction | no* |
nRadial | Divisions in radial direction | no* |
interpolationScheme | Sampling interpolation scheme | no* | cell
\endtable
Note
- URef is a scalar Function1 type, i.e. supports constant, table, lookup values
- rotationMode is used to set the origin, axis and revolutions per second
- if set to 'specified' all 3 entries are required
- note: origin is the sample disk origin
- if set to 'MRF' only the MRF entry is required
- to move the sample disk away from the MRF origin, use the originOffset
- if writePropellerPerformance is set to on|true:
- propellerPerformance text file will be written
- if writeWakeFields is set to on|true:
- wake and axialWake text files will be written
- if the surfaceWriter entry is set, the sample disk surface will be written
- extents set according to the r1 and r2 entries
- discretised according to the nTheta and nRadial entries
- provides a simple means of defining/modifying fields. For example,
```
<name1>
{
type exprField;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
field pTotal;
expression "p + 0.5*(rho*magSqr(U))";
dimensions [ Pa ];
}
```
It is is also possible to modify an existing field.
For example, to modify the previous one.
```
<name2>
{
type exprField;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
field pTotal;
action modify;
// Static pressure only in these regions
fieldMask
#{
(mag(pos()) < 0.05) && (pos().y() > 0)
|| cellZone(inlet)
#};
expression "p";
}
```
To use as a simple post-process calculator, simply avoid storing the
result and only generate on write:
```
<name2>
{
store false;
executionControl none;
writeControl writeTime;
...
}
```
- literal lookups only for expression strings
- code reduction for setExprFields.
- changed keyword "condition" to "fieldMask" (option -field-mask).
This is a better description of its purpose and avoids possible
naming ambiguities with functionObject triggers (for example)
if we apply similar syntax elsewhere.
BUG: erroneous check in volumeExpr::parseDriver::isResultType()
- not triggered since this method is not used anywhere

- this refines commit c233961d45, which added prefix scoping.
Default is now off (v2106 behaviour).
The 'useNamePrefix' keyword can be specified on a per function basis
or at the top-level of "functions".
```
functions
{
errors warn;
useNamePrefix true;
func1
{
type ...;
useNamePrefix false;
}
func2
{
type ...;
// Uses current default for useNamePrefix
}
}
```
- at the moment there is no significant difference since FieldBase is
essentially just a refCount anyhow, but changing the inheritance
ensures that reinterpret casting from SubField -> Field will
continue to work if FieldBase is changed in the future.
A Helmholtz-like filter is applied to the original field of sensitivity
derivatives. The corresponding PDE is solved on the sensitivity patches,
using the finite area infrastructure. A smoothing radius is needed,
which is computed based on the average 'length' of the boundary faces,
if not provided by the user explicitly.
If an faMesh is provided, it will be used; otherwise it will be created
on the fly based on either an faMeshDefinition dictionary in system or
one constructed internally based on the sensitivity patches.
Surface gradient scheme with under-/over-relaxed
full or limited explicit non-orthogonal correction.

}
and by using system/fvSolution:
relaxationFactors
{
fields
{
snGrad(<term>) <relaxation factor>;
}
}
A second-order gradient scheme using face-interpolation,
Gauss' theorem and iterative skew correction.
Minimal example by using system/fvSchemes:
gradSchemes
{
grad(<term>) iterativeGauss <interpolation scheme> <number of iters>;
}
- fix overly aggressive match in the API value
- allow `INTELMPI*` generic value, this can be used to specify something
like INTELMPI_custom and populate the corresponding wmake rule
manually

Description
Writes point data in glTF v2 format
Two files are generated:
- filename.bin : a binary file containing all scene entities
- filename.gltf : a JSON file that ties fields to the binary data
The output can contain both geometry and fields, with additional support
for colours using a user-supplied colour map, and animation of particle
tracks.
Controls are provided via the optional formatOptions dictionary.
For non-particle track data:
\verbatim
formatOptions
{
// Apply colours flag (yes | no ) [optional]
colours yes;
// List of options per field
fieldInfo
{
p
{
// Colour map [optional]
colourMap <colourMap>;
// Colour map minimum and maximum limits [optional]
// Uses field min and max if not specified
min 0;
max 1;
// Alpha channel [optional] (uniform | field)
alpha uniform;
alphaValue 0.5;
//alpha field;
//alphaField T;
//normalise yes;
}
}
}
\verbatim
For particle tracks:
\verbatim
formatOptions
{
// Apply colours flag (yes | no) [optional]
colours yes;
// Animate tracks (yes | no) [optional]
animate yes;
// Animation properties [optional]
animationInfo
{
// Colour map [optional]
colourMap <colourMap>;
// Colour [optional] (uniform | field)
colour uniform;
colourValue (1 0 0); // RGB in range [0-1]
//colour field;
//colourField d;
// Colour map minimum and maximum limits [optional]
// Note: for colour = field option
// Uses field min and max if not specified
min 0;
max 1;
// Alpha channel [optional] (uniform | field)
alpha uniform;
alphaValue 0.5;
//alpha field;
//alphaField T;
//normalise yes;
}
}
\endverbatim
Note
When writing particle animations, the particle field and colour properties
correspond to initial particle state (first data point) and cannot be
animated (limitation of the file format).
For more information on the specification see
https://www.khronos.org/registry/glTF/
The utility will now add field data to all tracks (previous version only
created the geometry)
The new 'fields' entry can be used to output specific fields.
Example
cloud reactingCloud1;
sampleFrequency 1;
maxPositions 1000000;
fields (d U); // includes wildcard support
STYLE: minor typo fix
- specify any of these
./Allwmake -build-root=...
wmake -build-root=...
FOAM_BUILDROOT=... wmake
these specify an alternative root where build artifacts are to land.
Currently only used as an alternative for the 'build/' hierarchy
since the 'platforms/' target normally includes inputs as well.
Possible use:
```
(
export WM_MPLIB="%{foam_mplib}"
export FOAM_MPI="%{foam_mpi}"
export MPI_ARCH_PATH="%{mpi_prefix}"
export FOAM_BUILDROOT=/tmp/mpibuild
export FOAM_MPI_LIBBIN="$FOAM_BUILDROOT/platforms/$WM_OPTIONS/lib/$FOAM_MPI"
src/Pstream/Allwmake-mpi
)
```
- exposed by the new embedded function handling.
Requires local copies of dictionary content instead
(similar to coded BCs handling)
BUG: incorrect formatting for expression function output
ENH: simpler copyDict version taking wordList instead of wordRes
- corresponds to the most common use case at the moment
ENH: expression string writeEntry method
- write as verbatim for better readability
- this revises the changes made in 95cd8ee75c to replace the
SFINAE-type of handling of string hashes with direct definitions.
This places a bit more burden on the developer if creating hashable
classes derived from std::string or variants of Foam::string, but
improves reliability when linking.
STYLE: drop template key defaulting from HashSet
- this was never used and `HashSet<>` is much less transparent
than writing `HashSet<word>` or `wordHashSet`
- Generic thermophysical properties class for a liquid in which the
functions and coefficients for each property are run-time selected.
Code adapted from openfoam.org
- had lookups into the merge-point map instead of
determining/remapping the duplicate points directly.
The result was a jumble of face/point addressing.
STYLE: additional debug/verbosity comment for mergePoints
- marks if the value is considered to be independent of 'x'.
Propagate into PatchFunction1 instead ad hoc checks there.
- adjust method name in PatchFunction1 to 'whichDb()' to reflect
final changes in Function1 method names.
ENH: add a Function1 'none' placeholder function
- This is principally useful for interfaces that expect a Function1
but where it is not necessarily used by a particular submodel.
TUT: update Function1 creation to use objectRegistry
- allows an additional HashTable of pointers to reference external
content which not otherwise directly available via an
objectRegistry.
This could typically be used to provide a function-local "rho"
to the expression evaluation.
- for cell quantities, these evaluate on the faceCells associated with
that patch to produce a field of true/false values
- for face quantities, these simply correspond to the mesh faces
associated with that patch to produce a field of true/false values
- similar idea to swak timelines/lookuptables but combined together
and based on Function1 for more flexibility.
Specified as 'functions<scalar>' or 'functions<vector>'.
For example,
functions<scalar>
{
intakeType table ((0 0) (10 1.2));
p_inlet
{
type sine;
frequency 3000;
scale 50;
level 101325;
}
}
These can be referenced in the expressions as a nullary function or a
unary function.
Within the parser, the names are prefixed with "fn:" (function).
It is thus possible to define "fn:sin()" that is different than
the builtin "sin()" function.
* A nullary call uses time value
- Eg, fn:p_inlet()
* A unary call acts as a remapper function.
- Eg, fn:intakeType(6.25)
- previously simply reused the scan token, which works fine for
non-nested tokenizations but becomes too fragile with nesting.
Now changed to use tagged unions that can be copied about
and still retain some rudimentary knowledge of their types,
which can be manually triggered with a destroy() call.
- provide an 'identifier' non-terminal as an additional catch
to avoid potential leakage on parsing failure.
- adjust lemon rules and infrastructure:
- use %token to predefine standard tokens.
Will reduce some noise on the generated headers by retaining the
order on the initial token names.
- Define BIT_NOT, internal token rename NOT -> LNOT
- handle non-terminal vector values.
Support vector::x, vector::y and vector::z constants
- permit fieldExpr access to time().
Probably not usable or useful for an '#eval' expression,
but useful for a Function1.
- provisioning for hooks into function calls. Establishes token
names for next commit(s).
Returns a 0/1 value corresponding to function object trigger levels.
Usage:
\verbatim
<entryName> functionObjectTrigger;
<entryName>Coeffs
{
triggers (1 3 5);
defaultValue false; // Default when no triggers activated
}
\endverbatim
ENH: add reset() method for Constant Function1
ENH: allow forced change of trigger index
- the triggers are normally increase only,
but can now override this optionally
Description
Function1 wrapper that maps the input value prior to it being used by
another Function1.
Example usage for limiting a polynomial:
\verbatim
<entryName>
{
type inputValueMapper;
mode minMax;
min 0.4;
max 1.4;
value polynomial
(
(5 1)
(-2 2)
(-2 3)
(1 4)
);
}
\endverbatim
Here the return value will be:
- poly(0.4) for x <= 0.4;
- poly(1.4) for x >= 1.4; and
- poly(x) for 0.4 < x < 1.4.
Example usage for supplying a patch mass flux for a table lookup:
\verbatim
<entryName>
{
type inputValueMapper;
mode function;
function
{
type functionObjectValue;
functionObject surfaceFieldValue1;
functionObjectResult sum(outlet,phi);
}
value
{
type table;
file "<system>/fanCurve.txt";
}
}
\endverbatim
Where:
\table
Property | Description | Required
mode | Mapping mode (see below) | yes
function | Mapping Function1 | no*
min | Minimum input value | no*
max | Maximum input value | no*
value | Function of type Function1<Type> | yes
\endtable
Mapping modes include
- none : the input value is simply passed to the 'value' Function1
- function : the input value is passed through the 'function' Function1
before being passed to the 'value' Function1
- minMax : limits the input value to 'min' and 'max' values before being
passed to the 'value' Function1
Note
Replaces the LimitRange Function1 (v2106 and earlier)
Returns a value retrieved from a function object result.
Usage:
<entryName> functionObjectValue;
<entryName>Coeffs
{
functionObject <name>;
functionObjectResult <function object result field name>
}
Function1 can now be created with an object registry, e.g. time or mesh
database. This enables access to other stored objects, e.g. fields,
dictionaries etc. making Function1 much more flexible.
Note: will allow TimeFunction1 to be deprecated
- created new functionObjects::properties class derived from IOdictionary
- replaces raw state IOdictionary owned by functionObjectList
- state dictionary access/manipulators moved from stateFunctionObject
- stateFunctionObject now acts as a light wrapper around
functionObjecties::properties
- updated dependent code
- more closely reflect what the binaries report
- report the installation path
- change PS1 case/separator to roughly correspond to package names
STYLE: adjust README to mention upcoming v2112
- use `#word` to concatenate, expand content with the resulting string
being treated as a word token. Can be used in dictionary or
primitive context.
In dictionary context, it fills the gap for constructing dictionary
names on-the-fly. For example,
```
#word "some_prefix_solverInfo_${application}"
{
type solverInfo;
libs (utilityFunctionObjects);
...
}
```
The '#word' directive will automatically squeeze out non-word
characters. In the block content form, it will also strip out
comments. This means that this type of content should also work:
```
#word {
some_prefix_solverInfo
/* Appended with application name (if defined) */
${application:+_} // Use '_' separator
${application} // The application
}
{
type solverInfo;
libs (utilityFunctionObjects);
...
}
```
This is admittedly quite ugly, but illustrates its capabilities.
- use `#message` to report expanded string content to stderr.
For example,
```
T
{
solver PBiCG;
preconditioner DILU;
tolerance 1e-10;
relTol 0;
#message "using solver: $solver"
}
```
Only reports on the master node.
- use FACE_DATA (was SURFACE_DATA) for similarity with polySurface
ENH: add expression value enumerations and traits
- simple enumeration of standard types (bool, label, scalar, vector)
that can be used as a value type-code for internal bookkeeping.
GIT: relocate pTraits into general traits/ directory
- releases ownership of the pointer. A no-op (and returns nullptr)
for references.
Naming consistent with unique_ptr and autoPtr.
DOC: adjust wording for memory-related classes
- add is_const() method for tmp, refPtr.
Drop (ununsed and confusing looking) isTmp method from refPtr
in favour of is_pointer() or movable() checks
ENH: noexcept for some pTraits methods, remove redundant 'inline'
- test for const first for tmp/refPtr (simpler logic)
- previously had codeAddSup used for both incompressible and
compressible source terms. However, it was not actually possible to
use it for compressible sources since any references to the 'rho'
parameter would cause a compilation error for the incompressible case.
Added 'codeAddSupRho' to distinguish the compressible case.
User must supply one or both of them on input.
- decomposePar: -no-fields to suppress decomposition of fields
- makeFaMesh: -no-decompose to suppress creation of *ProcAddressing
and fields, -no-fields to suppress decomposition of fields only
- switch from default topology merge to point merge if degenerate
blocks are detected. This should alleviate the problems noted in
#1862.
NB: this detection only works for blocks with duplicate vertex
indices, not ones with geometrically duplicate points.
ENH: add patch block/face summary in blockMesh generation
- add blockMesh -verbose option to override the static or dictionary
settings. The -verbose option can be used multiple times to increase
the verbosity.
ENH: extend hexCell handling with more cellShape-type methods
- allows better reuse in blockMesh.
Remove blockMesh-local hex edge definitions that shadowed the
hexCell values.
ENH: simplify some of the block-edge internals
- similar to -dry-run handling, can be interrogated from argList,
which makes it simpler to add into utilities.
- support multiple uses of -dry-run and -verbose to increase the
level. For example, could have
someApplication -verbose -verbose
and inside of the application:
if (args.verbose() > 2) ...
BUG: error with empty distributed roots specification (fixes#2196)
- previously used the size of distributed roots to transmit if the
case was running in distributed mode, but this behaves rather poorly
with bad input. Specifically, the following questionable setup:
distributed true;
roots ( /*none*/ );
Now transmit the ParRunControl distributed() value instead,
and also emit a gentle warning for the user:
WARNING: running distributed but did not specify roots!
COMP: implicit cast scope name to C++-string in IOobject::scopedName
- handles 'const char*' and allows a check for an empty scope name
COMP: avoid potential name conflict in local function (Istream)
- reportedly some resolution issues (unconfirmed) with Fujitsu clang
- added -dry-run, -write-vtk options.
Additional mesh information after creation.
- add parallel reductions and more information for checkFaMesh
ENH: minor cleanup of faPatch internals
- align pointLabels and pointEdges creation more closely with coding
patterns used in PrimitivePatch
- use fileHandler when loading "S0" field.
- previous handling did not correctly account for off-processor
connections (SEGFAULT).
- revised the point/area normal calculations to use the dual of the
faces. This simplifies the logic and reduces the depth of loops.
Point corrections from the neighbouring patches is handled
centrally by the new halo face information, which properly handles
on-processor or off-processor faces irrespective of any explicit
processor patches.
STYLE: local function and add comments for finiteArea area weighting
- following the original Tukovic code, the area-weighted normal
for a vector pair (defining a triangle) is weighted by
(1) area : larger weight for larger areas
(2) sin : lower weight for narrow angles (eg, shards)
(3) invDist squared : lower weights for distant points
Refactored to eliminate intermediate operations, some additional
divide-by-zero protection - similar to vector normalise()
- the finiteArea is typically restricteed to one or more patches on a
polyMesh but will have an external connectivity to other parts of
the polyMesh. For proper determination of the point normals (for
example), the neighbouring information is needed.
These outside 'halo' faces can be located on different processors,
but not correspond to an internal processor-processor interface.
Add a dedicated form of mapDistribute for swapping this type of
information. Since this is a collective operation, locate
corresponding methods directly on the faMesh level instead of
the faPatch level.
- the case of 'fan-like' processor was previously assumed to be
rare (see merge-request !490 and issue #2084).
However, Vaggelis Papoutsis noticed that even fairly normal geometries
can trigger problems.
- replaced the old patch/patch matching style with a more general
edge-based synchronisation and matching that appears to handle
the corner cases inherently. The internal communication overhead
is essentially unchanged, and the logic is simpler.
ENH: additional framework for managing patch connectivity
- the patch remapping in faFieldDecomposer calls weights
internalField() which can trigger parallel communication on the
complete mesh for some processors only (ie, blocks).
Force a priori creation of weights instead.
- ensure that the complete mesh (reconstruction helper)
is serial when adding patches.
- when creating a finite-area mesh in parallel, need to determine
the equivalent ProcAddressing for the faMesh.
In the faceProcAddressing the collected and sorted order was being
scattered directly back to the individual processors instead of only
the sections relevant to each particular processor.
This caused the observed jumbled order for reconstructed fields.
- this makes the lookup and use of tables slightly cleaner and
provides a hook for update (compat) messages
The singleton-style method returns the function pointer directly,
or nullptr on not-found.
NEW access method (mnemonic: 'ctor' prefix for constructors)
```
auto* ctorPtr = dictionaryConstructorTable(modelType);
if (!ctorPtr)
{
...
}
return autoPtr<myModel>(ctorPtr(dict, ...));
```
OLD method, which also still works, but without any compat handling:
```
auto ctorIter = dictionaryConstructorTablePtr_->cfind(modelType);
if (!ctorIter.found())
{
...
}
return autoPtr<myModel>(ctorIter()(dict, ...));
```
- a Pstream::master with a Pstream::parRun guard in case Pstream has
not yet been initialised, as will be the case for low-level messages
during startup.
- propagate relativeName handling into IOstreams
- better distinction between content and storage type
by appending 'Type' to the typedef.
old: 'Class::abcConstructorTable* tablePtr'
new: 'Class::abcConstructorTableType* tablePtr'
Was rarely used in any exposed code.
BREAKING: LESdelta::New with additional table
- parameter change to dictionaryConstructorTableType
(was dictionaryConstructorTable)
Example using mean turbulence fields (mean fields should be available e.g. from
a fieldAverage function object)
proudmanAcousticPower1
{
// Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
type proudmanAcousticPower;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
...
// Turbulence field names (if not retrieved from the turb model)
k kMean;
epsilon epsilonMean;
omega none; // omegaMean
}
- was taking from the current head instead from specified commit-ish
ENH: add -debian=NUM convenience option to foamPackRelease
STYLE: relocate compile begin/end messages
COMP: suppress more clang warnings (needed for boost)
- provide a plain stream() method on messageStream to reduce reliance
on casting operators and slightly opaque operator()() calls etc
- support alternative stream for messageStream serial output.
This can be used to support local redirection of output.
For example,
refPtr<OFstream> logging; // or autoPtr, unique_ptr etc
// Later...
Info.stream(logging.get())
<< "Detailed output ..." << endl;
This will use the stdout semantics in the normal case, or allow
redirection to an output file if a target output stream is defined,
but still effectively use /dev/null on non-master processes.
This is mostly the same as this ternary
(logging ? *logging : Info())
except that the ternary could be incorrect on sub-processes,
requires more typing etc.
ENH: use case-relative names of dictionary, IOstream for FatalIOError
- normally yields more easily understandable information
- argList::envExecutable() static method.
This is identical to getEnv("FOAM_EXECUTABLE"), where the name of
the executable has typically been set from the argList construction.
Provides a singleton access to this value from locations that
do not have knowledge of the originating command args (argList).
This is a similar rationale as for the argList::envGlobalPath() static.
- additional argList::envRelativePath() static method.
- make -dry-run handling more central and easier to use by adding into
argList itself.
STYLE: drop handling of -srcDoc (v1706 option)
- replaced with -doc-source for 1712 and never used much anyhow
- for compilers such as gcc and clang, may have several different
variants installed on the computer. Use WM_COMPILER_CONTROL to
specify the preferred variant.
Eg,
WM_COMPILER=Gcc
WM_COMPILER_CONTROL="version=8"
will compile with "gcc-8" and "g++-8"
Good practice would be to tag output directory names with the
version too. Eg
WM_COMPILER=Clang110
WM_COMPILER_CONTROL="version=11.0"
STYLE: modify message for change of gcc -> clang (darwin)
- using the proximityRegions filter when there is no enclosing surface
to segregate domains causes a surface of zero-faces to be created.
In most cases, this means that a simpler proximityFaces filter would
have been more appropriate. To increase overall robustness, revert
to the simpler proximityFaces filter logic when the proximityRegions
would otherwise result in zero faces (globally seen).
- reuse single component buffer within an Ensight output method.
Use direct UPstream read/write to avoid Pstream char buffers
- replace blocking transfer with scheduled for Ensight cloud output
- UPstream::mpiGather (MPI_Gather) - used by Pstream::listGatherValues
- UPstream::mpiScatter (MPI_Scatter) - used by Pstream::listScatterValues
These are much simpler forms for gather/scatter of fixed-sized
contiguous types data types (eg, primitives, simple pairs etc).
In the gather form, creates a list of gathered values on the master
process. The subranks have a list size of zero.
Similarly, scatter will distribute a list of values to single values
on each process.
Instead of
labelList sendSizes(Pstream::nProcs());
sendSizes[Pstream::myProcNo()] = sendData.size();
Pstream::gatherList(sendSizes);
Can write
const labelList sendSizes
(
UPstream::listGatherValues<label>(sendData.size())
);
// Less code, lower overhead and list can be const.
For scattering an individual value only,
instead of
labelList someValues;
if (Pstream::master()) someValues = ...;
Pstream::gatherList(sendSizes);
const label localValue
(
someValues[Pstream::myProcNo()]
);
Can write
labelList someValues;
if (Pstream::master()) someValues = ...;
Pstream::gatherList(sendSizes);
const label localValue
(
UPstream::listScatterValues<label>(someValues)
);
Can of course also mix listGatherValues to assemble a list on master
and use Pstream::scatterList to distribute.
ENH: adjusted globalIndex gather methods
- added mpiGather() method [contiguous data only] using MPI_Gatherv
- respect localSize if gathering master data to ensure that a
request for 0 master elements is properly handled.
- Pstreams can be ascii/binary but are always currentVersion
- rename UIPstream externalBuf_ to 'recvBuf_' for similar naming as
PstreamBuffers and symmetry with UOPstream::sendBuf_
- specific enum size for commsType (for more compact structures in the
future). Default construct lists items.
BUG: possible incidental indexing in UIPstream::read(char*, std::streamsize)
- raw reading had been split into beginRawRead(), readRaw().
However, this could change the current input position (due to word
boundary alignment), even if the expected count is zero. Make a
no-op for count == 0. This mirrors UOPstream::write behaviour.
- construct or reset from a list of local sizes. It is generally
easier and safer to assemble sizes and let globalIndex determine the
corresponding offsets, when working with raw values.
- Can use reset() from sizes or fine-tune offsets with setLocalSize()
instead of using the potentially more fragile non-const access to
the offsets.
- add globalIndex const_iterator to iterate across the access ranges.
This is makes it simpler to use with the List slice() method to
access or operate on a sub-section of list.
For example,
scalarField allValues = ...;
globalIndex procAccess = ...;
for (const labelRange& range : procAccess)
{
someOutput(allValues.slice(range));
}
- the size of a List often requires adjustment prior to an operation,
but old values (if any) are not of interest and will be overwritten.
In these cases can use the _nocopy versions to avoid additional memory
overhead of the intermediate list and the copy/move overhead of
retaining the old values (that we will subsequently discard anyhow).
No equivalent for PtrList/UPtrList - this would be too fragile.
- add swap DynamicField with DynamicList
BUG: fixed Dynamic{Field,List} setCapacity corner case
- for the case when the newly requested capacity coincides with the
current addressable size, the resize of the underlying list would have
been bypassed - ie, the real capacity was not actually changed.
- remove (unused) PtrDynList setCapacity method as too fragile
- previously returned the range slice as a UList,
but this prevents convenient assignment.
Apply similar handling for Field/SubField
Allows the following
labelRange range(...);
fullList.slice(range) = identity(range.size());
and
fullList.slice(range) = UIndirectList<T>(other, addr);
ENH: create SubList from full FixedList (simplifies interface)
- allow default constructed SubList. Use shallowCopy to 'reset' later
- simply adds in the reinterpret_cast, which simplifies coding for
binary data movement.
Name complements the size_bytes() method for contiguous data
STYLE: container IO.C files into main headers for better visibility
STYLE: include CompactListList.H in polyTopoChange
- avoids future mismatches if the CompactListList template signature
changes
GIT: relocate CompactListList into CompactLists/ directory
- previously used an indirect patch to get the sampling locations,
but this doesn't take account of the face flips. Now use
the faceZone intrinsic for generating a properly flipped patch
and provide the sampling locations separately.
STYLE: adjust compatiblity header for surfaceMeshWriter
- it is now possible to include the selected mpi version in the
top-level bashrc or prefs.sh file. For example,
WM_MPLIB=OPENMPI-4.1.1 or WM_MPLIB=openmpi-4.1.1
after evaluation of the config.sh/mpi, this will define
WM_MPLIB=OPENMPI-4.1.1 and FOAM_MPI=openmpi-4.1.1
During the wmake, the mpi-rules will first load the MPI 'family'
rules (OPENMPI in this example) before trying to load
version-specific rules if they exist.
NOTE: the regular user-defined prefs system is unaffected by this
change. This means it is still possible to use a file such as
'prefs.openmpi' to define the preferred version instead or as well.
However, it does mean inconsistent naming can be specified.
For example, specify WM_MPLIB=OPENMPI-4.1.1 at the top-level but
actually have FOAM_MPI=openmpi-4.0.6 in the prefs.openmpi file.
This will make the value of WM_MPLIB misleading.
CONFIG: foamConfigurePaths support for sys-openmpi major version
CONFIG: cleanup any shadow env variables
- migrate to c++14 for most compilers *except* gcc.
There are still many systems in use with gcc-4.8.5, which does not
support c++14.
- initial rules for nvidia compilers (pgi is will soon be defunct).
Not fully tested...
CONFIG: provide fallback value for the user directory name
- in containers may have an unset USER env variable.
Default to 'user' to prevent ugly looking directory names.
- supports redistributePar -decompose -fileHandler collated
- supports redistributePar -reconstruct
- does not support redistributePar with collated in redistribution mode
- noticed by Robin Knowles with `decomposePar -fields -copyZero`
The internals for the Foam:cp method combine the behaviour of
a regular `cp` and `cp -R` combined.
When source and target are both directories, the old implementation
created a subdirectory for the contents.
This normally fine,
ok: cp "path1/0/" to "path2/1" -> "path2/1/2"
BUT: cp "path1/0/" to "path2/0" -> "path2/0/0" !!
Now add check for the basenames first.
If they are identical, we probably meant to copy directory contents
only, without the additional subdir layer.
BUG: decomposePar -fields -copyZero copies the wrong directory
- was using the current time name (usually latest) instead of copying
the 0 directory
ENH: accept 0.orig directories as a fallback to copy if the 0 directory
is missing
- use orte-info to determine prefix/libdir for openmpi.
This removes a run-time dependency on mpicc, which is actually
only needed for building with MPI (not running with MPI).
The corresponding openmpi devel package (deb/rpm) will not
necessarily be installed on a particular system.
- retain mpicc logic if the new logic using orte-info does not
deliver an answer. Final fallback to using 'orterun' to
infer prefix/libdir.
- Additional logic for intel and msmpi to make it easier to
locate these vendor packages within ThirdParty
(ie, under ThirdParty/opt/...)
CONFIG: improve robustness
- add check for absolute path when adding PATH/LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc.
- prefix more variables with '_foam*' to prevent accidental overwrite
of userspace shell variables when sourcing
- avoid deprecated autoPtr check
- bundle bool values in fvPatchField for compacter allocation
- change useImplicit to a set method taking an argument instead of
allowing direct access.
- top-level faceCells() on the boundary list simplifies the creation
of lduAddressing etc, can also be useful on its own
STYLE: replace isA/refCast combination with a single isA
- helps avoid the creation of small face cuts (near corners, edges)
that result in zero-size faces on output.
CONFIG: make default iso-surface topo regularisation less aggressive
- The full (diagcell) regularisation no longer includes cleaning of
non-manifold surfaces by removing open edges.
This can be selected by the 'clean' regularisation option instead.
ie, 'clean' = 'full' + erode open edges
ENH: additional debug modes for iso-surface topo
- with (debug & 8) dumps out a VTK file of the tets to be cut and the
calculated open edges.
- PstreamBuffers for parallel VTK output.
- avoids MPI overflows for larger meshes
- new vtk::lineWriter for writing edges
- vtk::fileWriter::writeUniform now also supports processor-specific
uniform values instead of assuming that they are identical everywhere.
- support simple mesh subsetting to vtu formats to enable debug output
for a subsection of an existing polyMesh
- rudimentary support for VTK from cellShapes is intended for handling
basic primitive cell shapes without a full blown polyMesh description.
For example,
// Create an empty polyMesh with points only
polyMesh debugMesh
(
io,
std::move(points),
faceList(), // faces
labelList(), // owner
labelList(), // neighbour
true // syncPar
);
// Establish the appropriate VTK sizing for the TET shapes
vtk::vtuCells vtuCells;
vtuCells.resetShapes(debugCutTets);
vtuCells.nPoints(debugMesh.nPoints());
NOTE
Since the vtk::internalMeshWriter only uses the polyMesh reference
for the points, it is also possible to create the vtuCells
description without a pointField (or from a different mesh
description) and write out the connectivity using the pointField
from a different mesh.
This intercepts all vector/tensor AMI interpolations and
does the interpolation in cylindrical coordinates.
Use (component) 'coupled' linear solver to enable this in
the linear solver sweeps.
- previously used the size of distributed roots to transmit if the
case was running in distributed mode, but this behaves rather poorly
with bad input. Specifically, the following questionable setup:
distributed true;
roots ( /*none*/ );
Now transmit the ParRunControl distributed() value instead,
and also emit a gentle warning for the user:
WARNING: running distributed but did not specify roots!
- use dictionary methods directly in LduMatrix::solver::readControls.
Deprecate the redundant LduMatrix::solver::readControl helper-function
- define solver log-level outside of the loop,
narrow log flag to int.
- reinstate API-compatible parameters for SolverPerformance
- allows reuse of an int64_t scotch library with label-size 32
and/or label-size 64.
COMP: prefer scotch/metis/kahip libraries with label-size qualifiers
- as noted in #2200, mpirun may insert mpi libraries higher in the
library loader which can cause masking of our ThirdParty libraries
of the same name. With scotch (for example), the operating system
may have an int32 version installed but we have an int64 version
compiled under ThirdParty. Runing in serial is fine, but in parallel
we resolve to the (incorrect) system version due to the adjustments
in mpirun.
- adjust the ThirdParty make scripts to also create corresponding
links (eg, 'ln -s libscotch.so libscotch-int64.so') and prefer
linkage with these qualified libraries.
Eg, -L$(SCOTCH_LIB_DIR) -lscotch$(SCOTCH_LIBNAME_SUFFIX)
this prevent accidental runtime linkage with the system versions.
STYLE: simplify scotch interface code by using local functions
- allows reuse similar to refPtr for wrapping different content.
- additional control for when contents are copied back,
instead of waiting for the adaptor to go out of scope.
Eg,
if (adaptor.active())
{
adaptor.commit();
adaptor.clear();
}
- static ConstPrecisionAdaptor::get method renamed to 'select' as a
better description of its purpose and avoid confusion with
non-static 'get' method.
Was previously only used within GAMGPreconditioner, but even there
it is better just to use the ConstPrecisionAdaptor directly.
For cases where the number of injectors exceeded the number of parcels to
inject, processing the injectors sequentially led to not all injector locations
being active and yielding non-physical spatial distributions.
Previous naming conventions for input variables in the
normal, multiNormal, RosinRammler, and massRosinRammler
distributions were heuristic and did not reflect
the de facto conventions being used in statistics.
BUG: distributionModel: disallow any distribution
where input min is equal to input max
ENH: distributionModel: ensure execution of check() at ctor level
Previously, for basic incompressible and compressible simulations,
the "force" function object has not been using the user-specified "UName"
for the "devRhoReff" computation (affecting the tangential component),
but using the "U" of the latest available step. In contrast,
the user-specified "pName" has always been being used correctly.
This has been causing issues for users when they wish to use a specific
"UMean" field in various force and forceCoeff function object computations.
Introduces a new optional keyword of label type 'log'
to linear-solver dictionaries to enable variable-specific
debug statements. For example, in fvOptions file:
solvers
{
p
{
solver GAMG;
...
log 2;
}
U
{
...
log 0;
}
}
The meanings of values of 'log' are:
log 0; <!-- no output
log 1; <!-- standard output
log 2; <!-- debug output
// values higher than 2 are expected to have no effect
This keyword does not directly affect the operations of various
DebugSwitches and backward compatibility has been ensured in exchange
of code cleanness. The related DebugSwitches are:
DebugSwitches
{
SolverPerformance 0;
GAMG 0;
PCG 0;
PBiCG 0;
smoothSolver 0;
}
- previously reported the WM_PROJECT_VERSION in the top banner
but this makes it overly sensitive to arbitrary user naming.
Change to the current API in the comment banner, include the
WM_PROJECT_VERSION as part of the reported "Build: ..."
string instead.
- previously had a patch-size check, which caused a zero-sized patch
to be "sticky" as uniform Zero regardless of what the original input
stated (eg, "constant 0.5")
This was caused by short-circuiting logic that circumvented reading
on zero-size patches.
- support non-uniform scaling, prescaling and cartesian coordinate
transformations.
Eg, stretch in one direction and then rotate
```
prescale (1.5 1 1);
transform
{
origin (0 0 0);
rotation
{
type axisAngle;
axis (0 0 1);
angle 45;
}
}
```
- support "transformed" versions of blockMesh vertices, topology.
With the additional of transformations etc, a simplistic application
of a single scale parameter is no longer sufficient.
new: blMesh.vertices(true);
old: blMesh.vertices() * blMesh.scaleFactor();
new: blMesh.topology(true);
old: N/A
- add individual edge access for blockDescriptor.
Saves copying and duplicate calculations.
- handle '(block face)' specification for curved faces,
which is ok for external block faces, but likely somewhat
questionable if used for internal block faces.
- Can specify
```
transform
{
origin (1 2 3);
rotation none;
}
```
instead of the longer form
```
transform
{
origin (1 2 3);
e1 (1 0 0);
e3 (0 0 1);
}
```
COMPAT: remove old (pre-1812) Euler and STARCD keywords
- use "angles", remove old compat name "rotation"
as clutter and possible confusion with "coordinate rotation"
STYLE: remove coordinate rotation move constructors
- an unnecessary holdover from older code.
- for v2106 restricted the input conversion of string types to disallow
treating verbatim strings as possible word input.
However, it was too strict in just allowing quoted strings
and should have also permitted '$'-sigil variables as well.
- ensure that errors for bad string -> word input conversion
are raised from within the '>>' read operator. These were
previously triggered during the stripping process, which
made error tracing more difficult.
The original thermoSurfaceFilm sub-models were divided between kinematicSurfaceFilm and thermoSurfaceFilm in order to use the surfaceFilm model in a kinematicCloud.
The film interaction models are now in a kinematicSurface class which can be used in a kinematic cloud adding constant thermal properties (p and T) for some sub-models, e.g. drySplashInteraction/wetSplashInteraction.
pRef and Tref were added to the kinematicSurfaceFilm as entry to the regionFilm when used with a kinematic cloud.
In the finite area surface film model Tref, pRef are stored in filmSubModelBase.
TUT: kinematicParcelFoam: new tutorial pitzDailySprinkles
ENH: Several additions to thinFilm models
1) Changing the faSolution entry nonOrthoCorr to nFilmCorr entry.
This entry specify the number of iterations on the film thickness
Eq which does not correct for laplacian non-orthogonality.
2) Changing laminar turbulent model for the skin friction exerted by
the flow to the film.
3) Adding optional relaxation factors for source terms coming from
the added mass of the lagragian particles into the film such as
rhoSp, pnSp and Usp. Similarly the film pressure (pf) can be
relaxed in the inner loops.
4) Adding optional entries to curvatureSepration injection model.
minimum (fThreshold) force and minimum curvature (minInvR1) for
separation were added to have more control on determining the
points of film separation
ENH: ThermoSurfaceFilm in lagragian to search for finiteArea film models
- new model framework: liquidFilm
- new film turbulence models: filmTurbulenceModel with friction models
- new velocity boundary condition: velocityFilmShell to handle/evolve regionFa film
- new function object: setTimeStep to control the simulation time-step based on regionFa Courant number
- add support for the absorption of Lagrangian particles into films
Issue first shows up on gcc-11 with these types of library symbols:
U Foam::tableReader<double>::dictionaryConstructorTablePtr_[abi:cxx11]
xx B Foam::tableReader<double>::dictionaryConstructorTablePtr_
Use concrete hasher functor for runtime selection tables, which
avoids any additional template resolutions (introduced with
95cd8ee75c). The library symbols now resolve _without_ an
additional abi:cxx11 tag.
- need to change requireUpdate_ at the beginning of calculateCache
otherwise it is not updated for "ALL" selection (causing unnecessary
repeated calculations). For other modes, it would have tripped
an error in FULLDEBUG.
- all flags before loaders. Avoids "uninitialized when used here"
warning while preserving the field ownership logic.
- relocate override of updateT basicThermo into constructor body
for clearer logic and initialization
STYLE: plain bool instead of Switch for dpdt flag
1) Adding subMesh capabilities to momentumError and div FOs.
- A subMesh is created from cellZones.
- The operators (div, etc) are only calculated in the subMesh.
2) Optionally, halo cells can be added to the cellZones.
3) New helper class to handle the subMesh creation and field mapping.
- add setter/getter methods for number of grow/shrink steps,
which allows reuse of the same object.
- remove the lower input hard-limit of 1 step, to allow definition of
a no-op filter.
- drop early exit from grow/shrink cycle (potential parallel issues).
- previously a function (unlike the csh version) but since bashrc and
setup have been split -> replace with inline definition
STYLE: formatting/wording for openfoam starters
TUT: simplify controlDict modification, add default substitution
ENH: accept '/' for end-of-options terminator (etc/openfoam)
- makes the application or service more apparent.
* eg. /usr/bin/openfoam / blockMesh
* vs. /usr/bin/openfoam -- blockMesh
Accept lone '-' as the end-of-options terminator, as per bash
- Adjust handling of openfoam '-c' option to flag that a command-string
will appear, but continue with option parsing.
Consistent with bash definition.
- in the 'auto' mode (now the default), it will use cleanCase and also
remove the 0/ directory if a 0.orig/ directory also exists.
This corresponds to a frequent idiom and can be used quite safely
for most cases.
ENH: add -serial / -parallel preference for foamRunTutorials
- adjust commented-out evaluation to avoid warnings.
With code like this
```
#if 0
nxin #eval{ round($nxin / 5) };
#endif
```
The handling of the "#if 0 / #endif" clause uses the plain ISstream
parser to tokenize. This means that the "round(" is parsed as a word
with a mismatched closing ')', whereas the "#eval" parser will slurp
everything in until the closing brace and send it off as a string
to the expression parser.
- Added new faceAreaWeightAMI2D AMIMethod:
- performs intersection using a new 2D triangle class;
- candidate face matches set using an AABBTree method (vs advancing front for
faceAreaWeightAMI).
- Use by setting the AMIMethod entry when specifying the AMI in the
constant/polyMesh/boundary file, e.g.
AMI
{
type cyclicACMI;
AMIMethod faceAreaWeightAMI2D; // new method
Cbb 0.1; // optional coefficient
nFaces 1000;
startFace 100000;
matchTolerance 0.0001;
transform noOrdering;
neighbourPatch AMI1;
nonOverlapPatch AMI1_non_overlap;
}
- The optional Cbb coeffcient controls the size of the bounding box used when
looking for candidate pairs; the value of 0.1 is the default and worked well
for a large range of test cases. For badly matched AMI patches this may need
to be increased.
- Deprecated the partialFaceAreaWeightAMI class - primarily used by ACMI:
- functionality now offered by the AMI variants.
- prghPermeableAlphaTotalPressure for p_rgh
- pressurePermeableAlphaInletOutletVelocity for U
- new helper class for pressure-related BCs: updateableSnGrad
Wrapper that clones the supplied object for each region.
Simplifies the setup of identical post-processing requirements for
multi-region cases.
Applies the supplied function to all regions by default.
Example of function object specification:
multiRegion
{
type multiRegion;
libs (utilityFunctionObjects);
...
function
{
// Actual object specification
type fieldMinMax;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
fields (<field1> .. <fieldN>);
}
// Optional entries
regions (region1 region2);
}
Where the entries comprise:
Property | Description | Reqd | Default
type | Type name: multiRegion | yes |
function | Function object sub-dictionary | yes |
regions | List of region names | no | all
Computes a selected operation between multiple \c fieldValue function
objects.
The operation is applied to all results of each \c fieldValue object.
Note
Each object must generate the same number and type of results.
Usage
Minimal example by using \c system/controlDict.functions:
multiFieldValue1
{
// Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
type multiFieldValue;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
// Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
operation subtract;
// List of fieldValue function objects as dictionaries
functions
{
region1
{
...
}
region2
{
...
}
...
regionN
{
...
}
}
// Optional (inherited) entries
...
}
where the entries mean:
Property | Description | Type | Req'd | Dflt
type | Type name: multiFieldValue | word | yes | -
libs | Library name: fieldFunctionObjects | word | yes | -
operation | Operation type to apply to values | word | yes | -
functions | List of fieldValue function objects | dict | yes | -
\endtable
Options for the \c operation entry:
add | add
subtract | subtract
min | minimum
max | maximum
average | average
Deprecated fieldValueDelta
- The fieldValueDelta function object was originally written to compute the
difference between two fieldValue-type function objects. The multiFieldValue
object name better describes its purpose whilst being able to operate on an
arbitrary number of fieldValue-type objects.
Currently only applied to the fanFvPatchField, e.g.
plane
{
type fan;
patchType cyclic;
jump uniform 0;
value uniform 0;
uniformJump false;
// Optional under-relaxation
relax 0.2;
...
}
- combines region-based and proximity-based filtering
proxityRegions (post-filter):
Checks the distance of the resulting faces against the original
search surface. Filters based on the area-weighted distance
of each topologically connected region.
If the area-weighted distance of a region is greater than
\c absProximity, the entire region is rejected.
STYLE: 'proxityFaces' as newer synonym for 'proximity' filter
- snGrad, internalField, neighbourField.
Functional use as per swak: "... + internalField(T) ..."
ENH: additional volume/patch expressions
- deltaT()
STYLE: rename exprDriverWriter -> fvExprDriverWriter
- the original class name was a misnomer since it holds a reference
to fvExprDriver
BUG: expression faceToPoint/pointToFace definitions were flipped
ENH: refactor expression hierarchy and code style
- handle TimeState reference at the top-level for simpler derivations
- unified internal search parameters (cruft)
- support wordRes for selecting patch names
- ownerPolyPatch specification is now optional, which simplifies input
and also supports a faMesh spanning different patches but with a
single boundary condition.
Alternatively, can specify more granularity if required.
```
polyMeshPatches ( "top.*" );
boundary
{
inlet1
{
type patch;
ownerPolyPatch top1; // <- specific to this portion
neighbourPolyPatch inlet;
}
inlet2
{
type patch;
ownerPolyPatch top2; // <- specific to this portion
neighbourPolyPatch inlet;
}
outlet
{
type patch;
neighbourPolyPatch outflow;
}
bound
{
type symmetry;
neighbourPolyPatch bound;
}
}
```
- additional -serial/-parallel option:
prefer Allrun-serial or Allrun-parallel if available
- optional -output=DIR to preserve output
ENH: report missing tutorials/ directory in RunFunctions
- add to wmakeFunctions to ensure it works even without 'make' being
installed. Exit immediately after -show-api for consistency with
-version.
foamEtcFile:
- drop warnings for some old (pre-v1812) defunct options
and simply flag as unknown options.
- handle -version, --version as equivalent to -show-api
Prior to the commit, initial residual fields were registered by
the `setResidualField()` function of a linear solver with a field name
prefixed by `residual:`. However, `solverInfo` FO could only access to
the initial residual fields prefixed by `initialResidual:`.
Due to this discrepancy, using `solverInfo` FO with `writeResidualFields=true`
option was resulting in empty residual fields to be output.

- makeReactingParcelCloudFunctionObjects for reacting parcels
code style and quality improvements
renamed recon::centre to interfaceCentre.{groupName}
ranmed recon::normal to interfaceNormal.{groupName}
centre and normal field are not written by default
- makes it easier to use for local or alternative storage.
Eg,
```
tmp<volScalarField> tfld;
tfld.cref(obj.cfindObject<volScalarField>("name"));
if (!tfld)
{
tfld = volScalarField::New("name", ...);
}
```
- in some cases, additional dictionary inputs are useful for extending
the input parameters or functionality of dynamic coded conditions.
Typically this can be used to provide a simple set of dictionary
inputs that are used to drive specific code, but allows changing the
inputs without causing a recompilation.
Accessed with this type of code:
```
const dictionary& dict = this->codeContext();
```
boundary conditions and function objects:
* specify an additional codeContext dictionary entry:
```
codeContext
{
...
}
```
PatchFunction1:
* The code context dictionary is simply the dictionary used to specify
the PatchFunction1 coefficients.
To replicated persistant data, use local member static data.
Eg,
```
code
#{
// Persistent (Member) Data
static autoPtr<Function1<scalar>> baseVel;
static autoPtr<Function1<vector>> baseDir;
...
#}
```
fvOptions:
* currently not applicable
- meshTools include/library for many (most) coded items
- add PatchFunction1 include for coded BCs to provide ready access
to Function1 and PatchFunction1
- resizes to current fieldNames_ size and assigns everything to
false to avoid any "stickiness" if the field ordering changes
between reads.
ENH: additional debugging faOption/fvOption (#2110)
- aids tracing which sources are being used/ignored
- update code style
STYLE: rename CodedSource -> CodedFvSource
- avoid future name clashes with CodedFaSource
- with the changes in vtkCellArray, the legacy files now have
OFFSET, CONNECTIVITY information.
- support reading of both versions.
- continue to generate legacy format 2.0, since this is what
many programs still expect
- consider the neighbour polyPatch addressing on the connecting edge,
even when the neighbouring processor does not have a corresponding
section of the finiteArea mesh.
These "dangling" edges now propagate their real connectivity across.
- A bare-bones reconstructor for finiteArea meshes when processor
meshes are available (in parallel) but an equivalent serial faMesh
is needed for reconstruction or decomposition.
In these situations, a serial version of the faMesh is needed,
but preferably without reconstructing the entire volume mesh.
It uses the finiteVolume faceProcAddressing in addition to
the geometric information available from the underlying polyMesh.
The resulting equivalent faMesh can be used for basic operations,
but caution should be exercised before attempting large operations.
- adjust surfactantFoam/planeTransport tutorial to have partial
coverage of the plate by the finiteArea mesh.
Depending on the decomposition, the outflow boundary may coincide
with a processor patch (good for testing purposes).
- additional Allrun-parallel versions for targetted future behaviour
- improved separation of patch creation that is also parallel-aware,
which now allows creation in parallel
- memory-safe use of PtrList for adding patches, with a more generalized
faPatchData helper
- use uindirectPrimitivePatch instead of indirectPrimitivePatch
for internal patch handling.
- align boundary methods with polyMesh equivalents
- system/faMeshDefinition instead of constant/faMesh/faMeshDefinition
as per blockMesh convention. Easier to manage definitions, easier
for cleanup.
- drop inheritence from GeoMesh.
- depending on how the finiteArea is split up across processors,
it is possible that some processors have failed to register
fields in their object registry.
Now ensure that the field names are synchronized in parallel before
attempting a write. Replace locally missing fields with a dummy
zero-sized field.
- refine definition of patch boundary faces to distinguish between
boundaryFaces() and uniqBoundaryFaces().
* boundaryFaces() for edge to face lookup on boundary edges.
* uniqBoundaryFaces() for accessing quantities such as face areas
or eroding an outer layer
ENH: LabelledItem container, replaces unused 'Keyed' container
- method names in alignment with objectHit, pointIndexHit etc.
Top-level name aligns with labelledTri.
- provide '-clean' option for removing old files
- handle out of order '-decomposeParDict' as per RunFunctions
- implicit no-prompt '-yes' with the shortcuts (eg, -log, -xterm)
and set -local if not already defined
- accept <return> to select defaults
This is a partial fix for #2103. If there are no points
extruded for a stand-alone mesh (so not adding to mesh)
it should still include the original patch points. Not
doing so would generate illegal faces (also copiedPatchPoints
would not get set).
- can now drop older Test-decomposePar for exploration purposes
and simply use -dry-run with the -domains and -method options.
- write VTK file instead of volScalarField in combination
with -dry-run and -cellDist.
Avoids adding any OpenFOAM fields and is usually faster to load.
Also easier to rename than a volScalarField would be when exploring
multiple decompositions.
* removed internal upper limit on word/string length for parsed input.
- Although it has not caused many problems, no reason to retain
these limits.
- simplify some of the internal logic for reading string-like items.
- localize parsers for better separation from the header
- expose new function seekCommentEnd_Cstyle(), as useful
handler of C-style comments
* exclude imbalanced closing ')' from word/variable
- previously included this into the word/variable, but makes more
sense to leave on the parser for the following token.
Prevents content like 'vector (10 20 $zmax);' from being parsed
as '$zmax)' instead of as '$zmax' followed by a ')'.
No conceivable reason that the former would actually be desirable,
but can still be obtained with brace notation: Eg, '${zmax)}'
* consistent handling of ${{ ... }} expressions
- within a dictionary content, the following construct was
incorrectly processed:
value ${{2*sqrt(0.5)}};
Complains about no dictionary/env variable "{2*sqrt(0.5)}"
Now trap expressions directly and assign their own token type
while reading. Later expansion can then be properly passed to
the exprDriver (evalEntry) instead of incorrectly trying
variable expansion.
Does not alter the use of expressions embedded within other
expansions. Eg, "file${{10*2}}"
* improve #eval { ... } brace slurping
- the initial implementation of this was rudimentary and simply
grabbed everything until the next '}'. Now continue to grab
content until braces are properly balanced
Eg, the content: value #eval{${radius}*2};
would have previously terminated prematurely with "${radius" for
the expression!
NOTE:
both the ${{ expr }} parsed input and the #eval { ... } input
discard C/C++ comments during reading to reduce intermediate
overhead for content that will be discarded before evaluation
anyhow.
* tighten recognition of verbatim strings and expressions.
- parser was previously sloppy and would have accepted content such
as "# { ..." (for example) as an verbatim string introducer.
Now only accept parse if there are no intermediate characters
discarded.
- minor simplification of #if/#endif handling
ENH: improve input robustness with negative-prefixed expansions (#2095)
- especially in blockMeshDict it is useful to negate an value directly.
Eg,
```
xmax 100;
xmin -$xmax;
```
However, this fails since the dictionary expansion is a two-step
process of tokenization followed by expansion. After the expansion
the given input would now be the following:
```
xmax 100;
xmin - 100;
```
and retrieving a scalar value for 'xmin' fails.
Counteract this by being more generous on tokenized input when
attempting to retrieve a label or scalar value.
If a '-' is found where a number is expected, use it to negate the
subsequent value.
The previous solution was to invoke an 'eval':
```
xmax 100;
xmin #eval{-$xmax};
```
which adds additional clutter.
- intended for the following type of use:
auto oldHandler = fileHandler(fileOperation::NewUncollated());
... do something that only works with uncollated
// Restore previous (if any)
if (oldHandler)
{
fileHandler(std::move(oldHandler));
}
ENH: make fileOperation distributed(bool) mutable
- use is "static-like" and akin to Pstream::parRun(bool),
thus allow toggling of the switch without a const_cast
- return internalEdges() and boundaryEdges() sub lists directly
- calculate and return boundaryFaces() to identify faces attached to
boundary edges.
- minor code cleanup, and add PrimitivePatchBase class for
non-templated code.
STYLE: mark unused parameter in globalMeshData mergePoints
- this constructor was added for similarity with std::vector,
but continues to cause various annoyances.
The main problem is that the templated parameter tends to grab
anything that is not a perfect match for other constructors.
Typically seen with two integers (in 64-bit mode), but various other
cases as well.
If required, the ListOps::create() function provides a lengthier
alternative but one that can also incorporate transformations.
Eg,
pointField pts = ....;
List<scalar> mags
(
List<scalar>::create
(
pts.begin(),
pts.end(),
[](const vector& v){ return magSqr(v); }
);
- additional rcEdge(), rcEdges() methods for reverse order walk
- accept generic edge() method as alternative to faceEdge() for
single edge retrieval.
- edge() method with points -> returns the vector
- reduce the number of operations in edgeDirection methods
DEFEATURE: remove longestEdge global function
- deprecated and replaced by face::longestEdge() method (2017-04)
Historically the "geometry" for static meshes was placed under
directly in the EnSight case directory.
Eg,
ensight/ensight.case
ensight/geometry
ensight/data/000001
ensight/data/000002 ...
This generally works ok, but relocating it to a constant data directory
Eg
ensight/ensight.case
ensight/data/constant/geometry
ensight/data/000001
ensight/data/000002 ...
Improves handling and avoids potential collisions when adding in
additional mesh regions
- reduces code, simplifies creation of new, specialized polyData
writers.
- new templated vtk::GenericPatchWriter, which adds support for
writing both uindirectPrimitivePatch + indirectPrimitivePatch types.
- handle geometric fields separately from regular fields with
* vtk:GenericPatchGeoFieldsWriter
* vtk:indirectPatchGeoFieldsWriter
* vtk:uindirectPatchGeoFieldsWriter
- can be used for block-like meshes that are not aligned with the global
coordinate directions. Alternatively, for general testing purposes.
Example,
method simple;
coeffs
{
n ( 2 2 2 );
transform
{
origin (-0.15 0.15 0);
e1 (1 1 0);
e3 (0 0 1);
}
}
Step 1.
include "addAllRegionOptions.H"
Adds the -allRegions, -regions and -region options to argList.
Step 2.
include "getAllRegionOptions.H"
Processes the options with -allRegions selecting everything
from the regionProperties.
OR use -regions to specify multiple regions (from
regionProperties), and can also contain regular expressions
OR use the -region option
Specifying a single -regions NAME (not a regular expresssion)
is the same as -region NAME and doesn't use regionProperties
Creates a `wordList regionNames`
Step 3.
Do something with the region names.
Either directly, or quite commonly with the following
include "createNamedMeshes.H"
Creates a `PtrList<fvMesh> meshes`
STYLE: add description to some central include files
- make regionName an optional constructor parameter, which eliminates
a separate set of constructors and construction tables. Adjust
internals to treat a missing/empty regionName as a no-op.
- pass in fallback dictionary content via new IOdictionary constructor
with a pointer
ENH: further relax check for matching number of processor dirs
- if the "numberOfSubdomains" entry is missing (or even zero)
ignore checks of processor dirs as meaningless.
- additional debug information
- improve support for dictionary specification of constant, polynomial
and table entries. These previously only worked properly for
primitiveEntry, which causes confusion.
- extend table Function1 to include TableFile functionality.
Simplifies switching and modifying content.
- additional default construct
- add explicit zero-size constructor for ITstream.
For tagged dispatching, without ambiguity
- elminate mandatory name for parsing versions.
This makes it easier to use ITstream, IStringStream, UListStream
interchangeable.
- some code used copy construct from dictionary::null instead.
The result is the same but suggests that something else may be intended.
Only need dictionary::null for const-ref usage.
- allows use of surface names starting with a digit
(by quoting the name).
User is responsible for not generating bad names for output files.
Eg "bad.**.name", since these will be difficult to handle from the
shell
- largely as per patch from Jong-Gwan (Jason) Do
NB: the intel-one setup adds in paths for intelmpi.
Its mpicc version does not harmonize with the OpenFOAM
system openmpi setup (using mpicc --showme:link).
Needs adjustment, or use intelmpi instead.
- update name mappings for newer gcc, clang versions
Checking for the sum of species mass fraction in multiComponentMixture.
It can't be zero at the internal field or patches. A fatal error is thrown.
A warning was added if the mixture sum is different from one. In a
re-start the mass fraction can be slightly unbounded and new
normalization is required.
- The keyType is primarily used within dictionary reading, whereas
wordRe and wordRes are used for selectors in code.
Unifying on wordRe and wordRes reduces the number matching options.
- additional dummy template parameter to assist with supporting
derived classes. Currently just used for string types, but can be
extended.
- provide hash specialization for various integer types.
Removes the need for any forwarding.
- change default hasher for HashSet/HashTable from 'string::hash'
to `Hash<Key>`. This avoids questionable hashing calls and/or
avoids compiler resolution problems.
For example,
HashSet<label>::hasher and labelHashSet::hasher now both properly
map to Hash<label> whereas previously HashSet<label> would have
persistently mapped to string::hash, which was incorrect.
- standardize internal hashing functors.
Functor name is 'hasher', as per STL set/map and the OpenFOAM
HashSet/HashTable definitions.
Older code had a local templated name, which added unnecessary
clutter and the template parameter was always defaulted.
For example,
Old: `FixedList<label, 3>::Hash<>()`
New: `FixedList<label, 3>::hasher()`
Unchanged: `labelHashSet::hasher()`
Existing `Hash<>` functor namings are still supported,
but deprecated.
- define hasher and Hash specialization for bitSet and PackedList
- add symmetric hasher for 'face'.
Starts with lowest vertex value and walks in the direction
of the next lowest value. This ensures that the hash code is
independent of face orientation and face rotation.
NB:
- some of keys for multiphase handling (eg, phasePairKey)
still use yet another function naming: `hash` and `symmHash`.
This will be targeted for alignment in the future.
- wrap command-line retrieval of fileName with an implicit validate.
Instead of this:
fileName input(args[1]);
fileName other(args["someopt"]);
Now use this:
auto input = args.get<fileName>(1);
auto other = args.get<fileName>("someopt");
which adds a fileName::validate on the inputs
Because of how it is implemented, it will automatically also apply
to argList getOrDefault<fileName>, readIfPresent<fileName> etc.
- adjust fileName::validate and clean to handle backslash conversion.
This makes it easier to ensure that path names arising from MS-Windows
are consistently handled internally.
- dictionarySearch: now check for initial '/' directly instead of
relying on fileName isAbsolute(), which now does more things
BREAKING: remove fileName::clean() const method
- relying on const/non-const to control the behaviour (inplace change
or return a copy) is too fragile and the const version was
almost never used.
Replace:
fileName sanitized = constPath.clean();
With:
fileName sanitized(constPath);
sanitized.clean());
STYLE: test empty() instead of comparing with fileName::null
- simplify compile/uncompile, reading, assignment
- implicit construct wordRe from keyType (was explicit) to simplify
future API changes.
- make Foam::isspace consistent with std::isspace (C-locale)
by including vertical tab and form feed
ENH: improve #ifeq float/label comparisons
- originally had tests for regex meta characters strewn across
regExp classes as well as wordRe, keyType, string.
And had special-purpose quotemeta static function within string
that relied on special naming convention for testing the meta
characters.
The regex meta character testing/handling now relegated entirely
to the regExp class(es).
Relocate quotemeta to stringOps, with a predicate.
- avoid code duplication. Reuse some regExpCxx methods in regExpPosix
It was only looking for faces that were used in both
endpoints but not actually checking whether they were indeed
an edge (== consecutive vertex) in all faces. So if one
face had an additional crossing edge and another didn't it
would find more edgeFaces than the proper
'primitiveMesh::edgeFaces()' routine.
This occasionally happened inside snappyHexMesh
(e.g. motorBike tutorial)
When extruding an edge to a patch face make sure to extrude
all the patch faces connected to that edge and cell. This
will handle cyclicACMI (has duplicate patches - AMI and non-overlap)
fvMesh::readUpdate calls polyMesh::readUpdate which updates
the ACMI (including mesh areas etc). So we should not call
polyMesh::clearOut again inside fvMesh::readUpdate to avoid
having to re-do all the ACMI.
For example,
```
entry #eval 10 { vector(rand(), 0, 0) };
```
ENH: be more generous and ignore trailing ';' in expressions
STYLE: adjust parse token name for tensor::I
- previously had a very old (likely irrelevant) setting for solaris
systems only.
- support site-specific customization.
Eg, using etc/config.{csh,sh}/prefs.fjmpi
- remove erroneous shell redirects present in cshell files
- less important for VTK (may help in future though) but preserve
the face point 0 when flipping faces to ensure that the result
is the same as having called face::reverseFace()
- overCompressibleInterDyMFoam: Overset solver for two compressible,
non-isothermal, immiscible fluids using a VOF (i.e. volume of fluid)
phase-fraction based interface capturing approach.
- overInterPhaseChangeDyMFoam: Overset solver for two incompressible,
isothermal, immiscible fluids with phase-change (e.g. cavitation) using
VoF (i.e. volume of fluid) phase-fraction based interface capturing approach.
- adds new tutorials:
- multiphase/overCompressibleInterDyMFoam/compressibleTwoSimpleRotors
- multiphase/overInterPhaseChangeDyMFoam/twoSimpleRotors
Signed-off-by: Kutalmis Bercin <kutalmis.bercin@esi-group.com>
- useful when used in a batch process to trap the exit signal,
e.g. stop the run when the velocity magnitude exceeds a given
threshold:
runTimeControl
{
type runTimeControl;
libs ("libutilityFunctionObjects.so");
nWriteStep 1;
// Optional end 'action'
satisfiedAction abort; // end; // setTrigger
conditions
{
maxU
{
type minMax;
functionObject MinMax;
fields ("max(mag(U))");
value 1e6;
mode maximum;
}
}
}
- if the system/decomposeParDict is missing, skip check for matching
number of processor dirs. This can make job dispatch easier.
Does not apply if -decomposeParDict was explicitly specified.
STYLE: adjust naming of host/slaves in argList
- ensure that the processor directory cache is consistently available
by providing appropriate synthesized names. If the expected files
really do not exist, it will still fail at a later point (but not in
the caching).
This addresses cases that have been manually distributed
(different content on different nodes, but the same root path),
while still maintaining the readDir on master only for massively
parallel cases (#1946). It also addresses regular cases with
gaps in the processor directories.
- new '-ascii' option to write in ASCII format instead of the
controlDict setting. This can be useful when generating fields that
should be parsed with other tools, or for visual inspection.
- correct mismatch of option names and lookups
- can use either command-line option "-load-fields" or dictionary
entry "readFields" to specify field names to be preloaded.
Essentially the same functionality as with a readFields function
object but with a lot less typing.
- tutorial examples provided by Ryan Danks <ryan.danks@rwdi.com>
illustrate using setExpr* utilities to calculate a quantity
as a post-processing step.
- simplifies local toggling.
- centralize fileModification static variables into IOobject.
They were previously scattered between IOobject and regIOobject
to operate with overset
1) Adding zoneMotion to rigidBodyMotion
2) Introducing PID to prescribedRotation restraint
3) Making drivenLinearMotion read total displacement
4) When drivenLinearMotion is used sixDof and rigid-body solvers
write total displacement
- currently add to mesh zones to provide a table of contents
of the zone names that allows downstream consumers quick access to
the information without needing to parse the entire file.
- support selective enable/disable of the file banner.
ENH: improve code isolation for decomposedBlockData
- use readBlockEntry/writeBlockEntry to encapsulate the IO handling,
which ensures more consistency
- new decomposedBlockData::readHeader for chaining into the
block header information.
- remove unused constructors for decomposedBlockData
ENH: minor cleanup of collated fileOperations
- improves interface and data consistency.
Older signatures are still active (via the Foam_IOstream_extras
define).
- refine internals for IOstreamOption streamFormat, versionNumber
ENH: improve data alignment for IOstream and IOobject
- fit sizeof label/scalar into unsigned char
STYLE: remove dead code
- read/write lists of character data in binary only.
This is the only means of preserving data.
If character data are written as an ASCII list, there is no means of
determining if spaces or newlines are content or separators.
- handle binary/contiguous first as being the most obvious, followed
by increasing complexity of ascii.
Structure reading and writing routines similarly by introducing a
readList method to compliment the writeList method.
- override casename, procesorCase flags to guarantee reconstructed
case to be written to the undecomposed directory
- alternative is to construct a Zero mesh on the undecomposed
runTime and add all other bits to that but that has not been
pursued
- patch point ordering was affected by the EnSight face sorting
(tri, quad, nsided). This did not affect other point fields,
since they use the internal field values.
- for use when the is_contiguous check has already been done outside
the loop. Naming as per std::span.
STYLE: use data/cdata instead of begin
ENH: replace random_shuffle with shuffle, fix OSX int64 ambiguity
- direct check of punctuation.
For example,
while (!tok.isPunctuation(token::BEGIN_LIST)) ..
instead of
while (!(tok.isPunctuation() && tok.pToken() == token::BEGIN_LIST)) ..
Using direct comparison (tok != token::BEGIN_LIST) can be fragile
when comparing int values:
int c = readChar(is);
while (tok != c) .. // Danger, uses LABEL comparison!
- direct check of word.
For example,
if (tok.isWord("uniform")) ..
instead of
if (tok.isWord() && tok.wordToken() == "uniform") ..
- make token lineNumber() a setter method
ENH: adjust internal compound method empty() -> moved()
- support named compound tokens
STYLE: setter method for stream indentation
- pointPatches may or may not have a "value" type.
Use the patch value field where possible and the internal field
otherwise. Previously always used the internal field.
- the raw surface writer simply outputs x/y/z and field values.
This additional flag allows recovery of some geometric information.
- optional user-specified output precision
Example,
```
formatOptions
{
raw
{
normal yes;
precision 10;
}
}
```
- centralises existing functions (erfInv, incGamma*, invIncGamma*).
Provides a location for additional functions in the future.
- adjusted existing models to use these functions
(e.g. distributionModels::normal)
- eliminates a potentially invalid code branch.
Since it essentially had the same internals as std::swap anyhow,
make that more evident.
ENH: use std::swap for basic types
- makes it clearer that they do not rely on any special semantics
- since the wrapped cmake calls generally use the regular build
locations, add in MPI information to properly handle changes
in that as well. This makes it easier to build for multiple MPI
instances.
- ensure surface writing is time-step and nFields aware.
This avoids overwriting (ignoring) previous output fields.
- allow sampled surfaces to be used for weight fields as well.
Not sure why this restriction was still there.
- remove old compatibility reading of orientedFields.
Last used in v1612, now removed.
- only use face sampling. For surfaceFieldValue we can only do
something meaningful with face values.
ENH: modify interface methods for surfaceWriter
- replace direct modification of values with setter methods.
Eg,
old: writer.isPointData() = true;
new: writer.isPointData(true);
This makes it possible to add internal hooks to catch state changes.
ENH: allow post-construction change to sampledSurface interpolation
- rename interpolate() method to isPointData() for consistency with
other classes and to indicate that it is a query.
- additional isPointData(bool) setter method to change the expected
representation type after construction
- remove 'interpolate' restriction on isoSurfacePoint which was
previously flagged as an error but within sampledSurfaces can use
sampleScheme cellPoint and obtain representative samples.
Relax this restriction since this particular iso-surface algorithm
is slated for removal in the foreseeable future.
1) Small modification to the tracking logic for detA zero.
2) Adding small vector displacement to locate function to avoid error where
particle is inserted at the cell centre.
- setup writer outside the data loop to ensure that the number of
output fields is correct (VTK format).
- ignore 'interpolate' on sampled surfaces to ensure proper
face sampling, never allow point sampling
BUG: incorrect debug-switch for sampledIsoSurface
- get: uses access operation to get values for each list item
Example,
PtrListOps::get(mesh.boundaryMesh(), nameOp<polyPatch>());
- names: the name() of each list item filtered for matches
- firstMatching: index of first item with a matching name()
- findMatching: indices of items with a matching match name()
Example,
PtrListOps::findMatching(mesh.boundaryMesh(), wordRes( ... ));
STYLE: deprecate transitional getNameOp, getTypeOp
- use nameOp, typeOp (word.H) instead
If the 'writeFields' option is set in surfaceFieldValue, e.g.
surface1
{
type surfaceFieldValue;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
operation none;
fields (p);
regionType patch;
name walls;
// Create a surface in VTK format
writeFields yes;
surfaceFormat vtk;
}
... the surface can now be used in runTimePostProcessing, e.g.:
surfaces
{
surfaceFieldValueOutput
{
type functionObjectSurface;
representation surface;
liveObject no;
field p;
colourBy field;
range (0 120000);
functionObject surface1;
}
}
Note: setting 'liveObject' to 'no' to suppress warnings due to the surface
not being retrieved from the object registry (default = 'yes') - this surface
can [currently] only be read from disk.
- modification/continuation of 8d63073b08 and 5c1ec7ecb8 (#595).
Although this protected function is only used internally, the name
`size(label)` is too easily confused with `resize(label)` and
`setSize(label)`. The longer method name eliminates some ambiguity.
Name consistent with PtrListDetail.
- leave size(label) method (for possible compatibility),
but mark as deprecated
- improve sizing consistency for (Istream >> DynamicList)
STYLE: more consistent use of resize vs setSize in DynamicList
- more consistency between DynamicList and DynamicField.
There were some inconsistencies in how construct with a size was
interpreted.
STYLE: more consistent declaration/use of Swap
- this was previously suppressed for ASCII format as being 'clutter',
but without it there is no context for interpreting the type of data
contained in ASCII files: potentially leading to integer overflows
when reading in ParaView etc.
dynamicRefineFvMesh optionally can map fluxes derived from velocities
fields specified in dynamicMeshDict. The surface interpolation was
using old weights. This fix clear the old weights before mapping
the fluxes
The polyMesh construct-from-components will now ignore
the readOpt for the supplied primitives as before.
This again re-allows READ_IF_PRESENT for fv* in
combination with supplied primitives.
This makes the initialisation order of dynamicMesh consistent
with plain ones using the virtual mechanism. It does not
solve the cyclicACMI construction order yet.
Changed IO flag so that new mesh is created
- was using old 'faces', 'owner' etc but then used the new patch starts
Corrected logic for contMap in polyTopoChange
walls
A new user input parameter UrMax is added to the PatchInteractionModel.
In some occasions the partile remains on a patch face due to extremely
low relative U. If this Ur is lower than UrMax the particle is removed
- replaces previous code that used an autoPtr to hold a singleton.
In some circumstances this deletion would conflict with clearing
the objectRegistry - leading to error messages on exit.
Now store directly on the registry (similar to a MeshObject)
- previously hard-coded, now adjustable within PDRsetFieldsDict
// Change some predefined patch names
patchNames
{
ground ground;
outer outer;
}
ENH: additions to PDRutils, improve comments
- expose enumerated expansion names and gridControl (PDRblock).
Not commonly needed, but useful to have access when defining
other grid generators
TUT: update PDRsetFieldsDict and tutorials to use "ground"
- remove tutorial references to unused types and legacy obstacles
- use "ground" for the boundary conditions instead of "seaGround".
Consistent with PDRblockMesh
The new functionality optionally allows the patch-averaged
value to be scaled and/or offset by a pair of specified values.
Example of the boundary condition specification:
```
<patchName>
{
// Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
type outletMappedFilterInlet;
outletPatch <outletPatchName>;
// Optional entries (unmodifiable)
fraction 0.1;
offset 10; // (1 0 0);
phi phi;
// Optional (inherited) entries
...
}
```
1) PhaseIncompressibleTurbulenceModel class was changed to use
uniform alpha and non-uniform rho templates. This fits the need
of incompressible two phase turbulence models.
2) A new type DPMIncompressibleTurbulenceModel was created for
non-uniform alpha and uniform rho. It is used in single phase flows
in DPM solvers where alpha represents the volumen occupancy.
3) A new type incompressibleRhoTurbulenceModel was created where
non-uniform rho is allowed.
4) A new base templated turbulent class for two-phase VOF named
VoFphaseTurbulentTransportModel was implemented which is created
templating on PhaseIncompressibleTurbulenceModel and
incompressibleRhoTurbulenceModel
5) In order to make the chnage to rho based VOF turbulence a help
class was added incompressibleInterPhaseTransportModel templated
on the mixing.
In reconstruct mode redistributePar will have
- master read undecomposed mesh
- slaves construct dummy mesh (0 faces/points etc.)
but correct patches and zones
so all processors have two valid meshes. This was
all handled inside fvMeshTools::newMesh and this
was behaving differently.
Function1 wrapper that limits the input range of another Function1
Example usage for limiting a polynomial:
limitedPolyTest limitRange;
limitedPolyTestCoeffs
{
min 0.4;
max 1.4;
value polynomial
(
(5 1)
(-2 2)
(-2 3)
(1 4)
);
}
Here the return value will be:
- poly(0.4) for x <= 0.4;
- poly(1.4) for x >= 1.4; and
- poly(x) for 0.4 < x < 1.4.
- previously always called dlclose on opened libraries when destroying
the dlLibraryTable. However, by force closing the libraries the
situation can arise that the library is missing its own code that it
needs on unload (#1524). This is also sometimes evident when closing
VTK libraries for runTimePostProcessing (#354, #1585).
- The new default is to not forcibly dlclose any libraries, unless
the dlcloseOnTerminate OptimisationSwitch specifies otherwise.
- The dlLibraryTable::close() method can be used to explicitly close
all libraries and clear the list.
- The dlLibraryTable::clear() method now only clears the entries,
without a dlclose.
Failures shown in interFoam cases were found to be a result of stale ldu
addressing in fvMesh. Potentially delete lduPtr_ alone, but likely safer to
clear all addressing:
// deleteDemandDrivenData(lduPtr_);
clearAddressing(true);
The FO BilgerMixtureFraction needs access to specieComposition which is
stored in ReactingMixture. A virtual mechanism was added to
basicSpecieMixture to access specieComposition form rho and psi
reationThermos.
ptr was changed to autoPtr to avoid memory leaks (Kutalmis Bercin)
Multiplies a given list of (at least two or more) fields and outputs the
result into a new field.
fieldResult = field1 * field2 * ... * fieldN
Minimal example by using \c system/controlDict.functions:
multiply1
{
// Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
type multiply;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
// Mandatory (inherited) entry (runtime modifiable)
fields (<field1> <field2> ... <fieldN>);
...
}
- now also tracks the previous output time, which aids on restarts
since it allows the FEA side the possibility of determining
the effective deltaT between the output of forces
COMP: fix SP/DP inconsistency in fvGeometryScheme
STYLE: rename polyMesh::updateGeom to polyMesh::updateGeomPoints
- avoids compiler complaints and potential masking of
primitiveMesh::updateGeom / fvMesh::updateGeom
- mark argument as movable, since that is what is happening inside.
GIT: remove merge cruft
TUT: better clean on MPPICInterFoam
The SPL can now be weighted according to the new 'SPLweighting' entry
that can be set to:
- none: no weighting
- dBA : dB(A)
- dBB : dB(B)
- dBC : dB(C)
- dBD : dB(D)
This commit also includes code refactoring of the noiseModel class to
remove the dependency on noiseFFT/declutter.
Affected only the first optimisation cycle, if line search was enabled
If eta was not set explicitly, it was computed after evaluating the
directional derivative of the merit function, which was computed
wrongly, leading to an erroneous value of the extrapolated merit
function value.
fvOptionsAdjoint was needlessly duplicating a lot of the functionality
of fvOptions in order to add an interface for computing sensitivity
contributions emerging from fvOptions. To reduce this code duplication:
- fvOptionsAdjoint was removed
- the corresponding sensitivity contributions have moved to fvOptions through
virtual functions (returning a zero contribution in the base so
backwards compatibility is retained)
- all sensitivity classes that were using fvOptionsAdjoint have been
modified appropriately
- all adjoint solvers are now grabbing a reference to an fvOptionList
from the database instead of constructing an fvOptionsAdjointList
Hence, all fvOptions contributions to the adjoint equations
or the sensitivity derivatives can be given through system/fvOptions,
removing the need for separate sub-dictionaries within optimisationDict.
- Expanded the write function in the base class so that it can manage
input coming from the derived ones. This reduces a lot of code
duplication in the latter but keeps the functionality.
- Added a default width for all entries in the objective files.
- If a normalisation factor or a target is set, they are written on the
header of the objective file.
- Cosmetic/code consistency changes in various files.
- Added preLoop, loop and postLoop functions
- Added preIter, mainIter and postIter functions for each SIMPLE
iteration
- Added addMomentumSource and addPressureSource virtual functions, to
allow for additions by derived classes
fvOptions are no longer a member of incompressiblePrimalSolver but are
looked up from the registry in each iteration of each primal solver.
This means that the main system/fvOptions dictionary is read by ALL
instances of the primal solvers and the latter no longer have their
own fvOptions dict in optimisationDict. This is safe since each fvOption
is applied to a specific field and in case of many primal solvers, the
primal fields are named differently for each of them.
In addition, simple is now split in preLoop, loop and postLoop phase.
Furthermore, each SIMPLE iteration is broken down to
a preIter, mainIter and postIter phase, to allow for different behaviour
by derived classes.
Part of the (E)SI shape sensitivities depends of grad(Ua) & nf computed
on the boundary. Up to now, the code was only computing the normal part
of grad(Ua), to avoid the potentially spurious tangential component
which is computed on the cell center and extrapolated to the boundary
faces. However, for some objectives that are strongly related to the
stresses (e.g. moment, stresses), including also the tangential part of
grad(Ua) is necessary for E-SI to replicate the outcome of FI.
Extensive testing on a number of objectives/cases showed
- No regression when including the tangential part
- Improved behaviour in some rare cases (moment, stresses)
Hence, the tangential part is now included by default. The previous code
behaviour can be replicated by setting the useSnGradInTranposeStresses
flag to true.
- controlPointsDefinition is now controled by a class with
runTimeSelection.
- Added a new controlPointsDefinition option that translates, rotates
and scales a given box. The required entries have the same meaning as
in the Paraview 'Transform' filter, facilitating the transition between the
visual placement of control boxes (e.g. in Paraview) and their setup
in the code.
- Improved performance during the parameterization, sensitivity
computation and grid displacement phases by re-using already computed
basis functions.
- adds topology-based segmentation of the surfaces generated with
distance surfaces. This can occur when the surface terminates
close to a thin wall gap in the mesh; resulting in a cuts that
extend into the next region.
The cutting algorithm does not normally distinguish between these
types of "ragged" cuts, and legitimate ones (eg, cutting multiple
pipes). The additional segmentation controls provide for two common
scenarios:
largestRegion (pre-filter):
- The cut cells are checked for topological connectivity and the
region with the most number of cut cells is retained.
This handles the "ragged" edge problem.
nearestPoints (pre-filter):
- The cut cells split into regions, the regions closest to the
user-defined points are retained.
Uses maxDistance for additional control.
proximity (post-filter):
- Checks the resulting faces against the original search surface
and rejects faces with a distance greater than absProximity.
ENH: restructure distance surface geometric filtering
- prefilter cells, which can be used to adjust the distance
calculation in the far field to the real distance
(not the normal distance).
This can also be used to artificially sharpen the transition
between near/far regions, if required in the future.
- generic isoSurfaceBase. Provides simpler cell-cut detection and
various functions that can be used for iso-surfaces or when
preparing prefiltered input for iso-surfaces.
- rudimentary runtime selection
ENH: isoSurface Cell/Topo uses the isoSurfaceBase infrastructure
- simpler cell cut detection, common routines
- ensure that tetMatcher is only called once per cell
ENH: use indirect patch during edge erosion
- lower overhead, allows backtracking (future) if needed
This adds a 'geometry' scheme section to the system/fvSchemes:
geometry
{
type highAspectRatio;
}
These 'fvGeometryMethod's are used to calculate
- deltaCoeffs
- nonOrthoCoeffs
etc and can even modify the basic face/cellCentres calculation.
Creates volume fields whose boundaries are used to store patch interaction
statistics.
Current field output per patch face:
- \<cloud\>\<model\>:count - cumulative particle hits
- \<cloud\>\<model\>:mass - cumuluative mass of hitting particles
Fields can be reset according to:
- none: fields are not reset
- timeStep: reset at each time step
- writeTime: reset at each write time
Usage

type patchInteractionFields;
resetMode writeTime;
}
Member function dKcdTbyKc in thermo.H is calculated from S and G at Pstd.
Thus dGdT was removed from the thermos.

- Use new thermo to multiphase solver icoReactingMuliPhaseFoam
- Remove hRefConst and eRefConst thermos.
TUT: Updated tutorials
The generalizedNewtonian viscocity models were ported from
the org version and added to the laminar turbulence framework.
This allows use in compressible and incompressible solvers
through the turbulence dictionary under the laminar sub-dictionary.
The thermal laminar viscosity is taken from the thermo for solvers
that use thermo library or from the transportProperties dictionary
for incompressible solvers.
At the moment the option to include viscocity models through the
transportDict is still available.
The icoTabulated equation of state was ported from the org version.
STYLE: use 'model' instead of 'laminarModel' in tutorials
- New solver: `acousticFoam`
- New base finite-area region class: `regionFaModel`
- New base shell model classes:
- `vibrationShellModel`
- `thermalShellModel`

- implicitly enabled when timeStampMaster (default) is used
for the fileModificationChecking
- When running with non-distributed roots (eg, NFS-share) read for
processor directories on master only and send to sub-processes
instead individual reads.
- If disabled (old default, or when running with distributed roots),
uses the regular fileHandler readDir, which may perform readDir
on each processor. Potentially slow startup times on large systems.
Improvements based on analysis from T.Aoyagi(RIST), A.Azami(RIST)
Applies sources on turbulent kinetic energy (i.e. `k`)
and either turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate (i.e. `epsilon`)
or specific dissipation rate (i.e. `omega`) to incorporate effects
of buoyancy on turbulence in incompressible and compressible flows.
See buoyancyTurbSource.H for details.
- was previously via inheritance, but using member data instead
supports a more flexible internal switching of the storage. It also
ensures that data access remains safe, even in the absence of
an isoSurface.
- better alignment of sampling Cell/Point/Topo inputs
- make exposedPatchName optional for isoSurface, cuttingPlane. This
was a holdover requirement from an older version of fvMeshSubset
- yields cleaner surfaces with few cuts.
Can use isoMethod keyword to select cell/point/topo if they prove
better for any particular case.
CONFIG: change default cuttingPlane algorithm from 'cell' to 'topo'
- bundles selection and control parameters used when creating
iso-surfaces. This simplifies selection and specification
- drop old compatibility handling of "cell" as a bool
- harmonize filter/regularisation flags for iso-surface
- for dictionary input, accept "isoMethod" and "isoAlgorithm" as being
synonymous. Using "isoMethod" is less subject to typing errors.
- for boundary meshes, zones etc. The behaviour with an empty matcher
was either not properly documented, and looped through all
names just to establish there was no match.
STYLE: removed redundant typedefs for point fields
- robuster matching behaviour when encountering paths that themselves
contain the word "processor" in them. For example,
"/path/processor0generation2/case1/processor10/system"
will now correctly match on processor10 instead of failing.
- use procRangeType for encapsulating the processor ranges
- provision for information of distributed vs non-distributed roots.
The information is currently available from the initial setup, but
can useful to access directly within fileOperation.
STYLE: modernize list iteration
- the NullObject singleton can also be cast to a bitSet
(sufficient size and bit-pattern). Useful for places that
need to hold a reference on construction
- (tet, pyr, hex) can be identified from their number of faces
and vertices. For these common shapes can use static `test()`
method instead of the virtual isA() method.
This is much cheaper for calling on an individual basis since
it avoids the overhead of constructing an object.
ENH: tetCell edge/reverseEdge (already had tetEdge)
- avoid potential future mistakes if someone adds a sizing dimension
and finds they have inadvertently called construct labelList with
`{std::initializer_list<label>}` instead of `label`
The if(Pstream::master()) clause in NURBS3DVolume::writeCpsInDict() was
causing the fileName of the regIOobject not to be allocated in all
processors, giving problems when masterUncollatedFileOperation::masterOp
was called by collatedFileOperation::writeObject for the mkDirOp.

- 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
}

```
The element and side number are encoded as a synthetic face id
according to

but the underlying solid geometry is discarded, since there is no
reasonable way to pass it through the surface sampling mechanism.

----
install-platform: a platform (binary) installer
This is primarily driven by the need to install into system mpi
directories. The problem noted in issue #1893 is caused by the
rpm-mpi-hooks (fedora and redhat-8).
For the additional mpi library qualifier (openmpi-x86_64) to be
added to the requirements, the mpi-specific libraries (eg,
libPstream.so) need to be installed in the mpi system directory
(eg, /usr/lib64/openmpi).
However, then need symlinks from the system locations back to our
local directories to ensure that the libraries are correctly found
via our LD_LIBRARY_PATH and we don't get dummy libraries.
----
update-mpi-links: a post-install update hook
Expected paths are registered as persistent information into the
hook during packaging. Triggering the hook after installation
completes the creation of the symlinks.

- 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.
- non-uniform offsets are generated due to truncation errors,
which can lead to problems later on (e.g. redistributePar).
Detect if the offsets are close to being uniform.
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 ...

In fact, the set() method was invariably used in constructors

patchFaces.resize(...);
// populate patchFaces

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.

STYLE: simplify some shell syntax, avoid uname call in sysFunctions
STYLE: report FOAM_MPI during mpiLib builds
- no limit to the number of ways of filing ptscotch libraries.
RedHat/Fedora/CentOS should look for these directories:
ptscotch include=/usr/include/openmpi-x86_64
ptscotch library=/usr/lib64/openmpi/lib
when MPI_ARCH_PATH=/usr/lib64/openmpi
and mpicc --showme:compile yields -I/usr/include/openmpi-x86_64
- ensures that subsequent Allwmake scripts know about it.
ENH: add bin/tools/query-detect wrapper for wmake have_* scripts
CONFIG: use project/ThirdParty without additional sanity checks
- no need to test for Allwmake or platforms/ if ThirdParty is located
within the project directory itself.
COMP: add simple mpi test to 00-dummy
- for testing library linkage, etc.
- blockMesh <- extrudeModel <- dynamicMesh
COMP: bad constructor in searchableSphere
- used brace initializer instead of bracket initializer, which
triggered component-wise construction instead of copy/move
construction (gcc 4.8)
STYLE: use uint8_t instead of relying on definition of 'direction'
ENH: limit output to 25 cell types per line for readability
- makes it easier to trace potential format errors etc
STYLE: downgrade warning about polyhedrals to a simple info message
- can assume that polyhedral support is widespread enough to not
warrant a warning.
- first sort the cells into their ijk bins, and restrict testing for
face orientation to those faces with an owner or neighbour that has
an ijk bin.
ENH: ensure polyMesh from PDRblockMesh is marked as AUTO_WRITE
- the particular polyMesh constructor inherits the writeOpt, which
makes is dependent on the caller and thus somewhat fragile for the
top level caller.
- a sphere/spheroid can be specified as a single radius or three radii.
If all three values happen to be identical, they are collapsed to a
single value. Examples,
radius 2;
radius (2 2 2);
radius (2 3 4);
radius (2 2 4);
The search for nearest point on an ellipse or ellipsoid follows the
description given by Geometric Tools (David Eberly), which also
include some pseudo code. The content is CC-BY 4.0
In the search algorithm, symmetry is exploited and the searching is
confined to the first (+x,+y,+z) octant, and the radii are ordered
from largest to smallest.
Searching is optimized for sphere, prolate and oblate spheroids.
- code reduction, documentation, code stubs for spheroid (#1901)
- make searchableSurfaceCollection available as 'collection'
for consistency with other objects
- make handling of verbosity more consistent.
Make all setter return the old value, remove (unused) default
parameter as being counter-intuitive. This makes it easier to
restore the original values.
For example,
const bool oldVerbose = sampler.verbose(false);
...
sampler.verbose(oldVerbose);
- can help when designing/debugging blockMesh layouts
- propagate low-level cellModel methods face() and edge() to cellShape
STYLE: relocate blockMesh OBJ output to application only
- remove blockTopology files in cleanCase function
- improve code consistency in top-level blockMesh, PDRblockMesh
generation.
- consistent with FOAM_SIGFPE etc.
- centralize code as error::useAbort() static function to avoid
scattering the logic throughout the code.
ENH: also accept "0" and "1" string values for Switch
- not the normal path for Switch input (eg, from a dictionary), but
consistent with bool definitions and simplifies string parsing.
This means that `FOAM_SIGFPE=1 application` will now also work.
- use refPtr to simplify some logic.
- avoid copying field if an average will be used
- initialize geometric fields with a uniform value instead of Zero
- minor tweak of method names
- apply bugfix #1889 (longer description elsewhere)
- had calculated boundaries (default) for the evaluated variables,
which meant they retained their initialized values (usually Zero).
This normally goes unnoticed, since the boundary values are largely
irrelevant in the volField expressions. However, when applying
functions that balk at a zero value - eg, log() - this raises a
floating point exception.
These boundary should be zeroGradient, since the evaluated variables
correspond to the internalField only. Could continue to use
calculated, but then need to set the calculated boundary values from
the patch internal field manually.
- add -recentre option to shift points according to the bounding box
centre before performing other operations
- add -auto-origin to use the bounding box centre as the origin for
rotations. Has lower priority than the -origin option.
- surfaceTransformPoints now has distinct -read-scale, -write-scale
options (as per surfaceMeshConvert). Silently accepts -scale as
equivalent to -write-scale, for backwards compatibility and
similarity with transformPoints
- add -steps option for surfaceRefineRedGreen for successive
refinement
Allows specification of extrusion path using blockMesh 'edges' syntax.

Contribution by Ivor Clifford/Paul Scherrer Institut
ENH: add some scalar constants for .org compatibility (#1881)
Although it can very much be a moving target, it can prove partly
useful to have some compatibility constants/methods.
- The wholesale change of 'GREAT' -> 'great' etc (JAN-2018), makes
user coding for multiple versions problematic. When
COMPAT_OPENFOAM_ORG is defined, now define constants (aliases) named
as per the openfoam.org version. Values, however, remain identical.
- For type-safe dictionary value retrieval, we have the templated
get<> methods added around NOV-2018 and deprecated the lookupType
method.
The .org version followed suit in NOV-2019, but opted for renaming
the templated lookupType method as a templated 'lookup' method.
Using this is discouraged, but allowed when COMPAT_OPENFOAM_ORG is
defined.
- flips state while preserving the textual representation.
Eg, OFF <-> ON, YES <-> NO etc.
- fix test case to avoid triggering abort(), which we cannot try/catch
- provides a more direct means of generating a compound token without
an Istream
- add transferCompoundToken() without Istream reference
- mark more token methods as noexcept
- was marked as transitional/deprecated (2018-02), now deleted.
- avoids unexpected stealing of the pointer.
Use the move assignment it that is the intention.
- on ArchLinux, everything is installed under /usr/include/scotch.
The detection script uses SCOTCH_ARCH_PATH as an initial guess for
ptscotch as well. However, on the second pass, it has an absolute
value ("/usr") instead of a logical one ("scotch-system").
This resulted in the logic for handling scotch+ptscotch subdirs
being bypassed.
- the problem arises when output fields are missing on some
processors.
When the information is combined, the resulting HashTables can have
different insertion orders. This poses an issue when there are hash
key collisions and thus different chaining.
- Use sorted order.
- support construct face from subset of labels.
- additional cellModel face() method to return a single face.
- reduce some allocations in cellModel centre/mag methods
STYLE: mark old cellModeller methods as compile-time deprecated
- deprecated in 2017, but not marked as such
STYLE: indentation, spacing in some headers
- in most cases this eliminates manually calculation of circumferential
points.
TUT: improve parameterization of sphere blockMeshDict
- allow separate parameterization of radius, ratio of inner to outer,
and the number of divisions in x/y/z and radial directions
- The arc will frequently enclose an angle less than 180 degrees.
For the case, it is possible to define the arc by its endpoints
and its centre (origin) point. For example,
arc 0 1 origin (0 0 0);
When defined in the way, any discrepancy in the arc radius for the
endpoints is resolved by adjusting the origin to ensure that the
average radius is satisfied.
It is also possible to specify a \em flatness factor as a multiplier
of the radius. For example,
arc 0 1 origin 1.1 (0 0 0);
ENH: minor code cleanup for block edges
ENH: expose point appending as polyList::concat
- contents to be filled with a later assignment.
This can help avoid deduction issues when populating from a list of
tokens, and the templated version is selected:
```
template<class T>
primitiveEntry(const keyType&, const T&);
```
ENH: support construct empty ITstream with given name
- populate contents later by assigment
- provides consistency with identity(label, label) and looks more
familiar than using labelRange::labels()
- relocates labelRange IO operators to IntRange
ENH: make sliceRange interators random access
STYLE: scalarRanges::match() instead of predicate operator
- returns a range of `int` values that can be iterated across.
For example,
for (const int proci : Pstream::subProcs()) { ... }
instead of
for
(
int proci = Pstream::firstSlave();
proci <= Pstream::lastSlave();
++proci
)
{
...
}
- returns a range of `int` values that can be iterated across.
For example,
for (const int proci : Pstream::allProcs()) { ... }
instead of
for (label proci = 0; proci < Pstream::nProcs(); ++proci) { ... }
- timeVaryingUniformFixedValue -> uniformFixedValue
- allows a variety of functions (eg, coded, expressions, tables, ...)
- more similarity to finiteVolume patch type
STYLE: remove unused timeVarying... from etc/controlDict
- specifying gradientExpr without a valueExpr, a missing fractionExpr
should be treated as 0 (gradient only), not as 1 (value only)
ENH: improve sanity checks + evaluation short-cuts in exprMixedFvPatchField
- add reverse iterators and replace std::iterator
(deprecated in C++17) with full definitions
- simplify construction of iterators
- construct labelRange from a single single parameter.
This creates a (0,len) range.
- make basic constructors forms constexpr.
Remove unused size checks.
- Derive labelRange from new IntRange template class.
Allows reuse of base functionality with different integral sizes.
Deprecations:
- deprecate labelRange::valid() in favour of using
labelRange::empty() or the bool operator.
For example,
if (range) ... vs older if (range.valid()) ...
DEFEATURE: drop labelRange::null, scalarRange::null static variables
- turned out to be not particularly useful.
Can simply use constexpr contructor forms
DEFEATURE: drop labelRange::identity static method
- simply use the single-parameter constructor
1) Adding LiquidEvapFuchsKnudsen model for lagrangian evaporation.
This models is based on a diffusion type of evaporation/
condensation on particles composed of solution (liquid + solid).
2) Adding modes of calculating the particle rho and volume change.
The new keyword in constantProperties is 'volumeUpdateMethod'
which three options:
a) constantRho
b) constantVolume
c) updateRhoAndVol
The old keyword 'constantVolume' true/face is still valid
3) The entry rho0 is now optional for multicomponent parcels.
If defined , it is used, but if it is not the actual mixture
provided is used to calculate rho0 of the particle.
T0 is still used as initial T and Cp0 is over-written in the
multicomponent cloud but still required.
4) Adding tutorial for evaporation/condensation model
BUG: faMatrix::residual changes source vector (fixes#1835)
ENH: improve code alignment between faMatrix and fvMatrix
- support setValues() with a single value
- can use ListOps::appendEqOp as the more general form.
Note that this uses a different template parameter.
Eg,
`globalMeshData::ListPlusEqOp<labelList>()`
vs. `ListOps::appendEqOp<label>()`
- select default nastran PLOAD2 or PLOAD4 based on field type.
Default to PLOAD2 for scalar types and PLOAD4 for vectors etc.
- relocate nastran SHELL/MAT cards.
Previously wrote at the end of the file, now emit when writing the
geometry itself. This improves modularity (of code and files)
- initial support for common geometry file for nastran
- for CAE formats such as abaqus, nastran, starcd, etc, the element id
is already part of the output format itself. For these cases, there
is no use in generating an additional "Ids" field.
ENH: add code to ignore negative face ids
- these will arise from very special cases, such as when a
solid element and side are encoded into a single integer.
BUG: starcd surface values output did not use original face ids
- introduce WM_COMPILE_CONTROL variable to convey control information
into the build rules.
The convention (as per spack):
- '+' to select a feature
- '~' to deselect a feature
Eg, to select the gold linker, and disable openmp
(spaces are not required):
WM_COMPILE_CONTROL="+gold ~openmp"
CONFIG: accept FOAM_EXTRA_LDFLAGS for AMD, gold, Mingw linkers
CONFIG: generalize PROJECT_LIBS (-ldl used almost universally)
- originally (incorrectly) was a Field(0.0), which was generalized
to Field(Zero), but Field() is the correct form
STYLE: rename 'mustGet' to more standard 'mandatory' variable
- read header info once and reuse
- short-circuit logic to avoid unneeded checks
- additional debug information if field cannot be found
STYLE: remove unused old code remnants from #1206
- slipped in with changes to csvTableReader (commit 59ed3ba18d) so
only affects the 2006 version.
- adjust constructor to expect "componentColumns", but also accept
"valueColumns" as 1912 and earlier-compatibility. This not only
fixes the reported bug, but also ensure proper compatibility with
older files.
ENH: use "refColumn" instead of "timeColumn" for csvTableReader
- consistent with the CSV Function1.
Support 'timeColumn' as 1912 and earlier-compatibility.
TUT: remove unused table-reader entry
- experienced while reusing src/Pstream/Allwmake-mpi to create
additional mpi-layers after installation. Since the copied sources
are not located within the OpenFOAM source-tree (and/or the
source-tree is non-writable), it should not and does not use the
central build/WM_OPTIONS directory.
However, when exploring for the appropriate local Make directory, it
searched for the current '.' directory instead of checking for the
resolved directory.
This fails, since there is no src/Pstream/Make directory.
Must check for src/Pstream/mpi/Make directory first!
- Adjust wclean to always remove a local build directory
(Make/WM_OPTIONS) for additional safety.
After which, attempt to remove central build/WM_OPTIONS version too.
Script to copy/create mingw run-time installation from the Linux
cross-compilation. Packs everything into a tar or a zip file.
To accommodate Windows, all .dll files are also placed in the
platforms bin/ directory where they are easily found via the PATH.
Futhermore, ThirdParty dll files (including those from mingw itself)
are also placed in the same directory.
---
Steps
- bundles common files and directories (bin, etc, META-INFO, ...)
- copies .exe files from FOAM_APPBIN and .dll files from FOAM_LIBBIN
to the new target platforms/win64MingwDPInt32Opt/bin.
- copies mingw sys-root .dll files to the new target
platforms/win64MingwDPInt32Opt/bin
- copies other ThirdParty dll files (scotch, fftw, etc) to
platforms/win64MingwDPInt32Opt/bin
- copies tutorials (can be deactivated)
---
Note
Can only be called when the linux64Mingw environment is active.
- makes it easier to use in combination with various 'New' selectors,
which mostly return an autoPtr.
ENH: add very simple FFT test
- basic sanity test that the library links properly
- previously hidden as Detail::[IO]FstreamAllocator, now exposed
directly as [io]fstreamPointer, which allows reuse for
std::ifstream, std::ofstream wrapping, without the additional
ISstream, OSstream layers.
These stream pointers have some characteristics similar to a
unique_ptr.
- restrict direct gzstream usage to two files (fstreamPointers.C,
gzstream.C) which improves localization and makes it simpler to
enable/disable with the `HAVE_LIBZ` define.
The HAVE_LIBZ define is currently simply hard-coded in the
Make/options.
If compiled WITHOUT libz support:
- reading gz files : FatalError
- writing gz files : emit warning and downgrade to uncompressed
- warn if compression is specified in the case controlDict
and downgrade to uncompressed
ENH: minor updates to gzstream interface for C++11
- support construct/open with std::string for the file names.
CONFIG: provisioning for have_libz detection as wmake/script
- the various information queries MUST be executed with
the '--no-print-directory' or risk polluting values
in the information queries.
This is mostly seen with the 'canCompile' test for tutorials running
in parallel.
- the various information queries MUST be executed with
the '--no-print-directory' or risk polluting values
in the information queries.
This is mostly seen with the 'canCompile' test for tutorials running
in parallel.
Reduce the number of phaseSystems libraries:
- phaseSystems previously had a number of smaller libraries to provide
interface and model properties, etc. This potential flexibility was
never actually used anywhere, but causes cyclic dependencies between
phaseSystem and the models (and turbulence) that causes extreme
difficulty for mingw linking (issue #1238).
- libincompressibleMultiphaseSystems
- removed: libmassTransferModels
- libmultiphaseSystem
- removed: libcompressibleMultiphaseEulerianInterfacialModels
- libreactingMultiphaseSystem
- removed: libreactingPhaseSystem
- removed: libreactingEulerianFvPatchFields
- removed: libreactingEulerianInterfacialCompositionModels
- removed: libreactingEulerianInterfacialModels
- removed: libmultiphaseReactingTurbulenceModels
- libreactingTwoPhaseSystem
- removed: libreactingPhaseSystem
- removed: libreactingEulerianFvPatchFields
- removed: libreactingEulerianInterfacialCompositionModels
- removed: libreactingEulerianInterfacialModels
Avoid duplicate symbol for phaseCompressibleTurbulenceModels
Common turbulence models are defined in libreactingMultiphaseSystem,
and libmultiphaseReactingTurbulenceModels is now redundant.
The libtwoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels extends the common models
for reactingTwoPhaseSystem.
- since the context (laminar/RAS/LES) is already given by the
sub-dictionary, it is redundant to use as prefix as well.
- silently support the longer names as compat methods
- old code just checked for pointer vs non-pointer.
Should actually treat CREF and REF types differently
Overseen in commit be058bec7d. Only affects develop branch
ENH: improved naming consistency in tmp, refPtr
- also use long-form to check for pointer type instead of the isTmp()
method. Makes differences between PTR, CREF, REF easier to spot.
STYLE: typeName() for tmp, refPtr is static
In fvSolution is possible to cache the limiter. This surface field
is stored in the database to be read later.
The internal tmp management of the field was not working properly.
In certain turbulence models such as kEpsilon, kOmegaSST, etc when used
in the multiphase context throw an error in the preconditioner. This
is due to alpha being zero. Fixes#1789.
- using HashPtrTable::set() with the same key twice did not guarantee
proper cleanup of memory since it simply used the underlying
HashTable::set() without doing anything about the old memory. Now
check for pre-existing storage and delete it when it does not
correspond to the newly stored pointer.
This problem is independent of potential memory slicing previously
flagged (#1286) and only partially resolved.
- naming similarity with autoPtr, unique_ptr and other containers.
For UPtrList derivatives, this is equivalent to the existing
operator(). The read-only variant is also equivalent to the
single-parameter 'set(label)' method.
With PtrList<T> list(...) :
const T* ptr = list.get(10);
if (ptr)
{
ptr->method();
}
vs.
if (list.set(10))
{
list[10].method();
}
For HashPtrTable there is only a read-only variant which is equivalent
to testing for existence and for value.
With HashPtrTable<T> hash(...) :
const T* ptr = list.get("key");
if (ptr)
{
ptr->method();
}
vs.
if (list.found("key"))
{
// Fails on null pointer!!
list["key"].method();
}
Use of get() is largely a matter of taste or local coding requirements
- forwarding like the emplace() method, but overwriting existing
entries as required
- propagate similar changes to HashPtrTable
For example, with HashPtrTable<labelList> table(...) :
With 'insert' semantics
table.emplace("list1", 1000);
vs
if (!table.found("list1"))
{
table.set("list1", new labelList(1000));
}
or
table.insert("list1", autoPtr<labelList>::New(1000));
Note that the last example invokes an unnecessary allocation/deletion
if the insertion is unsuccessful.
With 'set' semantics:
table.emplace_set("list1", 15);
vs
table.set("list1", new labelList(15));
- constructs such as the following will no longer worked, but that is
also a good thing.
ptrlist.set(i, scalarField(nFaces, Zero));
this called set(.., const tmp<scalarField>&), which meant under
the hood:
- create local temporary const scalarField&
- wrap as const tmp&
- use tmp::ptr(), to clone the const-ref
This implies an additional allocation (for the const scalarField&)
which is immediately discarded. Doubtful that compiler optimization
would do anything.
The fakeError function object emits FatalError at different stages (or
does nothing), which is useful for testing purposes (issue #1779).
Can request errors from constructor, execute and write methods.
- previously setting FOAM_ABORT would preempt checks for throwing
exceptions.
Now check for throwing first, to allow try/catch code to do its job.
However, ignore exception throwing for abort(). These are used
infrequently in the code, but indicate that recovery is deemed
impossible.
STYLE: use unique_ptr for internal stream buffer management
The function evaluate was returning true every outer loop, triggering
the re-calculation of ddt0 in every outer loop.
The evaluation of the term ddt0 should be performed once per time step.
The corrected function updates the timeIndex of ddt0 to avoid the
re-evaluation of this term in the outer loops.
- improves flexibility. Can tag a tmp as allowing non-const access to
the reference and skip additional const_cast in following code. For
example,
tmp<volScalarField> tfld(nullptr);
auto* ptr = getObjectPtr<volScalarField>("field");
if (ptr)
{
tfld.ref(*ptr);
}
else
{
tfld.reset(volScalarField::New(...));
}
auto& fld = tfld.ref();
ENH: renamed tmpNrc to refPtr
- the name 'refPtr' (reference|pointer) should be easier to remember
than tmpNrc (tmp, but non-ref-counted).
- provide tmpNrc typedef and header for code compatibility
NOTE
- in some places refPtr and tmp can be used instead of a
std::reference_wrapper for handling external references.
Unlike std::reference_wrapper, it can be default constructed
(holding nothing), whereas reference_wrapper may need a dummy
reference. However, the lifetime extension of references _may_ be
better with reference_wrapper.
- previously this was marked as '= delete' for consistency with
assignment from an empty pointer being a runtime error.
However, these can be considered semantically different and it makes
sense to permit this as equivalent to reset(nullptr).
This change does not break existing code since the operator was
previously unavailable (deleted).
STYLE: refactor tmp operator=(T*)
- delegate to reset() after initial checks
- Previously considered to be valid() if it was any reference
(null or non-null) or a non-null pointer.
This appears to be a holdover from old code (pre-2015) where
reinterpret_cast<..>(0) was used instead of the NullObject.
A reference via a null pointer isn't really possible anywhere. Even
for things like labelList::null(), they now use the NullObject,
which has a non-zero memory location.
- now simply check for a non-zero memory address. Regardless of
pointer or referenced object.
- combine reset() methods by adding a default parameter
- improve top-level visibility of empty/valid/get methods for symmetry
symmetry with autoPtr, future adjustment
- with '&&' conditions, often better to check for non-null autoPtr
first (it is cheap)
- check as bool instead of valid() method for cleaner code, especially
when the wrapped item itself has a valid/empty or good.
Also when handling multiple checks.
Now
if (ptr && ptr->valid())
if (ptr1 || ptr2)
instead
if (ptr.valid() && ptr->valid())
if (ptr1.valid() || ptr2.valid())
- This reflects the pre-existing coding situation where const_cast was
used throughout to effect the same.
STYLE: fix private/protected access
- CodedField, codedMixedFvPatchField
- libs() singleton method for global library handling
- explicit handling of empty filename for dlLibraryTable open/close.
Largely worked before, but now be more explicit about its behaviour.
- add (key, dict) constructor and open() methods.
More similarity to dimensionedType, Enum etc, and there is no
ambiguity with the templated open().
- construct or open from initializer_list of names
- optional verbosity when opening with auxiliary table,
avoid duplicate messages or spurious messages for these.
- basename and fullname methods (migrated from dynamicCode).
- centralise low-level load/unload hooks
- adjust close to also dlclose() aliased library names.
This is for a very specific use case where the faceZones are
imprinted after meshing the normal geometry. This sometimes
splits off badly connected bits of the mesh. One way to remove
these is to use e.g. subsetMesh. This embeds the
same functionality inside snappyHexMesh.
- replace `%namespace` directive with simpler `%static` directive.
We always encapsulate Lemon parser routines in an anonymous
namespace, so a simpler static linkage directive suffices.
This reduces the size of the Lemon patch (program and template).
- makes it easier to distinguish between pointers referring to pool
data versus pointers actually holding storage, avoids
manual demand-driven deletion and autoPtr.
ENH: simplify/improve Pstream profiling
- times now double (not scalar) for consistency with what cpuTime
delivers
- use bool to track suspend state
- When OpenFOAM is under git control and a 'debian/' directory exists,
this could mean two things:
1) Additional debian control has been added to OpenFOAM
2) OpenFOAM has been imported into a debian project
For the case that OpenFOAM has been imported into a debian project,
using the git information would be highly misleading. There will be no
OpenFOAM SHA1 correspondence.
However, if additional debian control has been added to OpenFOAM the
SHA1 will be valid.
The ad hoc solution is to use an additional "openfoam.debian"
directory to flag the addition of debian controls into openfoam.
When a "debian/" directory exists without a "openfoam.debian", assume
that the OpenFOAM has been imported into debian and do not use the SHA1.
- affects ensightSurfaceReader only.
If there are no `*` characters, protect against replacement.
Otherwise it would attempt to replace a zero-length string with
a single `0`, which results in prepending the name.
STYLE: ensightSurfaceReader constructor explicit
- start of work to create a 1-to-1 face mapping across AMI patches
- faces are inserted according to the AMI addressing based on Horacio's method
- removed 'updated' flag and reworked some demand driven updates
- updated to handle 'walking' through baffles
- use bitSet instead of boolList
- moved update of meshPhi to movePoints() functions at fvPatch level
- moved scaling of areas to movePoints() functions at fvPatch level
- rehomed topology change code to own file
- added warning re: geometry construction
ACMI
- split srcMask into srcMask and srcAreaMask
- former in range 0-1, and latter has bounding or tol to (1-tol) to avoid
sigFpe's
- useful for supporting a variety of different predefined
configuration files. Bypasses the regular etc/bashrc entirely.
- minor refactoring in foamCreateModuleInclude
- related to change c3571b7357 (does not affect 1912 or older).
Remnant check for data() should have used valid() method instead.
TUT: add fluxSummary cellZoneAndDirection to angledDuct/implicit
- For some cases it can be helpful to test if additional libraries can
be properly resolved.
This can be useful in scripts to test for additional capability:
if foamHasLibrary geometricVoF
then ...
fi
But also directly from the command-line to help resolve configuration
issues:
foamHasLibrary -verbose petscFoam
Could not load "petscFoam"
libpetsc.so.3.13: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
- when installed in-source, use PETSC_ARCH to find additional include
directory and the correct library directory
CONFIG: bump to new hypre version
- add -hint option for have_adios2, have_hypre, have_petsc
The function object now computes the acoustic pressure at a list of user
specified locations, or from the face centres of a user-supplied surface.
When operating on an input surface, the output can be written back to the
surface or as a list of point values.
Example of function object specification:
Curle1
{
type Curle;
libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
...
patches (surface1 surface2);
c0 330;
// Input - either points or surface
input points;
observerPositions ((0 0 0)(1 0 0));
//input surface;
//surface "inputSurface.obj"
// Output - either points or surface
output points;
//output surface;
//surfaceType ensight;
}
Where the entries comprise:
Property | Description | Required | Default value
type | Type name: Curle | yes |
p | Pressure field name | no | p
patches | Sound generation patch names | yes |
c0 | Reference speed of sound | yes |
input | Input type | yes |
observerPositions | List of observer positions (x y z) | no |
surface | Input surface file name | no |
output | Output type | yes |
surfaceType | Output surface type | no |
- the earlier implementation of externally controlled lumped point
motion (see merge request !120 and OpenFOAM-v1706 release notes) was
conceived for the motion of simple structures such as buildings or
simple beams. The motion controller was simply defined in terms of
an orientation axis and divisions along that axis.
To include complex structures, multiple motion controllers are
defined in terms of support points and connectivity.
The points can have additional node Ids associated with them, which
makes it easier to map to/from FEA models.

TUT: adjust building motion tutorial
- use new controllor definitions
- replace building response file with executable
- add updateControl in dynamicMeshDict for slowly moving structure
- use simpler decomposeParDict in tutorials, several had old
'boilerplate' decomposeParDict
- use simpler libs () format
- update surface sampling to use dictionary format
- Removed some unnecessary dynamicMeshDicts.
- Removed the writeActiveDesignVariables execution from the Allrun
scripts, since it is no longer necessary to execute it before
adjointOptimisationFoam.
- Updated the entries in dynamicMeshDict according to efbc9fc99.
for all objective functions.
- The normalization is useful for practically all update methods dealing
with constraints (e.g. SQP, MMA). The normalization factor can be either
given explicitly or, if not given, will be the value of the objective
function in the first optimisation cycle.
- The target value is useful when using the objective as a constraint in
constrained optimisation problems (e.g. drag - dragTarget). It should
only be used with update methods that understand the value of the
constraint (e.g. SQP, MMA) but not when the objective in hand is the
only objective of the optimisation problem. In such a case, a squared
objective should be used (e.g. sqr(drag - dragTarget))
- Objective now inherits from localIOdictionary and writes the mean
objective value under the uniform folder, each time mesh.write() is
called. This is crucial for getting the correct old merit function value
if the simulation is continued from a previous state and lineSearch is
used.
- Objectives are now computed and written even if the corresponding
adjoint solver is inactive. This, among others, is also essential for
getting the correct old merit function value in case of continuation.
- Writing of the objective function (and its mean, if present) history
has now moved to updatePrimalBasedQuantities, instead of the preLoop
part of the adjoint solvers. This was decided to get the objective
values to files, even if the adjoint solver is inactive. Arguably, an
even better place to write the objective functions would be the postLoop
part of the primal solvers, however this might cause multiple writes of
the objective value for the inner iterations of lineSearch, if one is
used.
Moved part common to all derived classes (e.g. update) to the base
class to avoid code duplication. Practically, only the protected
updateDesignVariables has to be overwritten in each derived class now.
steadyOptimisation was also affected in a minor way.
- Added function returning the underlaying surface sensitivities
- Added boolean to control whether to write the underlaying sensitivity
map (defaults to false)
Encapsulates all terms that are common in both E(SI) and FI
formulations, like direct sensitivities and sensitivities due to
primal boundary conditions. Added the latter to all derived sensitivity
types, except for sensitivity maps.
Same as adjointWallVelocity but also returns the contribution
of the differentiation of the rotatingWallVelocity BC wrt the
face centres, to be added to the sensitivity derivatives.
Main reason was the insertion of a templated virtual function
returning the contribution of the differentiation of the primal
boundary condition, in the case the latter directly depends on a
a geometric quantity (e.g. rotatingWallVelocity).
Example usage:
removeParcels1
{
type removeParcels;
log yes;
resetOnWrite no;
resetOnStart no;
faceZones (cycLeft cycRight);
}
Number and mass of particles removed are written to file
to geometricVoF
sampledInterface was linked to interfaceProperties thorugh geometricVoF,
and interfaceProperties created a conflict on surfaceTension table
when linked in the reactingEuler solvers by the sampling lib
Example usage:
cloudFunctions
{
WeberNumber1
{
type WeberNumber;
}
}
This will calculate and write the Weber number field as a 'standard'
cloud field, available for post-processing alongside other lagrangian
fields in the lagrangian/<cloudName> directory.

- missing minThreshold in activePressureForceBaffleVelocity
- update names of cyclics
- increase tolerance for zero-thickness baffles
- velocity field "U" instead of "UBet"
- viscosity field "nut" instead of "mut"
- replace ':' scoping with IOobject::scopedName(), which automatically

(drive separator)
- apply similar local change for the momentum function object.
*** This topic will be revisited in the future ***
- overrides normal deltaT for testing accelerated motion.
Can be useful to test mesh motions with constant/dynamicMeshDict
entries (updateControl, updateInterval) where the mesh motion is
much slower than any of the fluid physics.

\endverbatim
The integration of the code was carried out by Andy Heather and Sergio
Ferraris from OpenCFD Ltd.
ENH: update libs of etc/caseDicts/postProcess items
ENH: ensure destructor=default
ENH: ensure constness
ENH: ensure no 'copy construct' and 'no copy assignment' exist
TUT: add examples of function objects with full set
of settings into a TUT if unavailable

The PIMPLE option finalOnLastPimpleIterOnly allows the call the Final
solver only in the last PIMPLE loop. The default is false which is
the present behavior.
- When compiling additional modules or user code, we need more control
for the installation locations beyond the usual FOAM_USER_LIBBIN,
FOAM_SITE_LIBBIN, FOAM_LIBBIN, and wish to have these values be
modifiable without editing files.
- provide wmake rules for handling standard defaults:
* GENERAL_RULES/module-path-user
* GENERAL_RULES/module-path-group
* GENERAL_RULES/module-path-project
which are incorporated as follows:
Make/options:
include $(GENERAL_RULES)/module-path-user
Make/files:
LIB = $(FOAM_MODULE_LIBBIN)/libMyLibrary
By default these would compile into FOAM_USER_{APPBIN,LIBBIN} but
could be adjusted at compilation time. For example,
```
wmake -module-prefix=/path/my-install-location
```
Or
```
./Allwmake -module-prefix=/path/my-install-location
./Allwmake -prefix=/path/my-install-location
```
Or
```
FOAM_MODULE_PREFIX=/path/my-install-location ./Allwmake
```
ENH: add -no-recursion option for AllwmakeParseArguments
- more descriptive naming than the -fromWmake option (still supported)
- remove wmake/scripts/wmake.{cmake,wmake}-args since the -prefix
handling and -no-recursion is now directly handled by AllwmakeParseArguments
- now list compiler versions in reverse order (newest first) similar
to how they are listed on the gcc/llvm sites. Add comments to
mention which compiler series are now considered unsupported.
ENH: add generalised log-law type ground-normal inflow boundary conditions for
wind velocity and turbulence quantities for homogeneous, two-dimensional,
dry-air, equilibrium and neutral atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) modelling
ENH: remove `zGround` entry, which is now automatically computed
ENH: add `displacement height` entry, `d`
ENH: add generalised atmBoundaryLayerInletOmega boundary condition
ENH: add a verification case for atmBoundaryLayerInlet BCs
DOC: improve atmBoundaryLayerInlet header documentation
BUG: fix value-entry behaviour in atmBoundaryLayerInlet (fixes#1578)
Without this change:
- for serial-parallel computations, if `value` entry is available in
an `atmBoundaryLayerInlet` BC, the theoretical ABL profile expressions
are not computed, and the `value` entry content is used as a profile data
- for parallel computations, if `value` entry is not available, `decomposePar`
could not be executed.
With this change:
- assuming `value` entry is always be present, the use of `value` entry for
the ABL profile specification is determined by a flag `initABL`
- the default value of the optional flag `initABL` is `true`, but whenever
`initABL=true` is executed, `initABL` is overwritten as `false` for the
subsequent runs, so that `value` entry can be safely used.
Thanks Per Jørgensen for the bug report.

TUT: update simpleFoam/turbineSiting tutorial accordingly
STDMD (i.e. Streaming Total Dynamic Mode Decomposition) is a variant of
a data-driven dimensionality reduction method.
STDMD is being used as a mathematical post-processing tool to compute
a set of dominant modes out of a given flow (or dataset) each of which is
associated with a constant frequency and decay rate, so that dynamic
features of a given flow may become interpretable, and tractable.
Among other Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) variants, STDMD is presumed
to provide the general DMD method capabilities alongside economised and
feasible memory and CPU usage.
Please refer to the header file documentation for further details.
ENH: add new STDMD tutorial, pimpleFoam/laminar/cylinder2D
ENH: add Test-EigenMatrix application
The new iterative eigen decomposition functionality is
derived from:
Passalacqua et al.'s OpenQBMM (openqbmm.org/),
which is mostly derived from JAMA (math.nist.gov/javanumerics/jama/).
- generates a vtk file in an ASCII, XML format (blockTopology.vtu).
More information than the equivalent obj file since it includes
connectivity, cell shapes and cell IDs (equivalent to the block
numbers).
- new vtk::internalMeshWriter, vtk::patchMeshWriter
intermediate classes without finiteVolume dependencies.
Enables direct use with a polyMesh.
Makes vtk::internalWriter, vtk::patchWriter header/template only.
- bundled of boolean values as a vector of 3 components with
element access using x(), y() and z() member functions.
It also has some methods similar to bitSet.
- Not derived from Vector or VectorSpace since it does not share very
many vector-like characteristics.
- support construct from initializer_list, which can help simplify
code with constant coefficients.
- add default constructor for polynomialFunction and Istream reading
to support resizable lists of polynomialFunction.
A default constructed polynomialFunction is simply equivalent to
a constant zero.
- no special IO handling for Polynomial required,
it is the same as VectorSpace anyhow.
The phase systems tables for multiphase solvers create conflict
between each other as they are defined in the same namespace and using
similar class names.
Therefore a special htc function object for reactingEulerSolver was
added (reactingEulerHtcModel), located under
src/phaseSystemModels/reactingEulerFoam/functionObjects/
This commit includes the following:
- Relocate solvers/reactingEulerFoam functionObjects to
src/phaseSystemModels
- Remove links for fieldFunctionObject to multiphase libs to avoid
conflicts
- New FO for htc for reactingEulerFoam called reactingEulerHtcModel
- previously introduced `getOrDefault` as a dictionary _get_ method,
now complete the transition and use it everywhere instead of
`lookupOrDefault`. This avoids mixed usage of the two methods that
are identical in behaviour, makes for shorter names, and promotes
the distinction between "lookup" access (ie, return a token stream,
locate and return an entry) and "get" access (ie, the above with
conversion to concrete types such as scalar, label etc).
- Favour use of argList methods that are more similar to dictionary
method names with the aim of reducing the cognitive load.
* Silently deprecate two-parameter get() method in favour of the
more familiar getOrDefault.
* Silently deprecate opt() method in favour of get()
These may be verbosely deprecated in future versions.
- before (-lreactingPhaseSystem -ltwoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels)
after (-ltwoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels -lreactingPhaseSystem)
to fix symbol resolution issue on clang.
- similar to the behaviour of std::ignore and consistent with the
no input / no output nature of nullObject. Similarly accept a
const reference for its Istream operator.
- make most nullObject methods constexpr
- mostly wraps std::chrono so can inline much of it, which is potentially
helpful when used for inner timings.
- add elapsedTime() method for direct cast to double and for
naming similarity with wall-clock method.
Potential breaking change (minor):
- clockValue construct with a bool parameter is now simply tagged
dispatch (value is ignored) and always queries the current clock
value. This avoids needless branching.
Since this constructor form has primarily been used internally (eg,
clockTime), breakages in user code are not expected.
- have printBuildInfo output to std::ostream
- removed extraneous include "stdFoam.H"
ENH: revert to pre-processor defines for hard-coded paths (#1712)
- redundant information, but more robust at run-time without relying
on initialization order
- previously could only run from the project directory
- strip surrounding double quotes on input of path names
since they are added automatically when editing.
- previously relied on presence/absence of command-line options.
Can now explicitly disable individually
- provide shorter constructors for dealing with these types of cases.
Make construction with non-default names for "system" and "constant"
lengthier so there is no ambiguity.
multiphaseReactingTurbulenceModels and twoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels
add models to the same table TurbulenceModel. These two libs were removed
from libreactingPhaseSystem which created the conflict.
The multiphaseReactingTurbulenceModels was added to
reactingMultiPhaseEulerFoam solver and twoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels to
twoPhaseReactingEulerFoam solver
The FO heatTransferCoeffs for libfieldFunctionObjects needs
twoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels.
These change avoids linking conflict from multiphaseReactingTurbulenceModels
and twoPhaseReactingTurbulenceModels being linked in the same lib.
- Provide Allwmake-mpi scripts for handling the MPI-only build segment.
- Adjust Make/options to support a FOAM_MPI_LIBBIN target location.
This will simply default to FOAM_LIBBIN/FOAM_MPI, but allows different
types of builds with out-of-tree targets.
Example,
Build OpenFOAM with default MPI settings (eg, system openmpi)
```
./Allwmake
```
Rebuild MPI-layers with different MPI.
For any given and known type
```
othermpi()
{
export WM_MPLIB=OPENMPI
export FOAM_MPI=openmpi-3.1.3
export OPAL_PREFIX=$WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/platforms/$WM_ARCH$WM_COMPILER/$FOAM_MPI
export MPI_ARCH_PATH="$OPAL_PREFIX"
}
```
May wish to build/rebuild ptscotch
```
(
othermpi
$WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/makeSCOTCH
)
```
Rebuild the mpi-dependent parts. Can also provide install location
```
for script in $(find src -name Allwmake-mpi)
do
(
other_mpi
export FOAM_MPI_LIBBIN="$HOME/tmp/install-prefix/lib/$FOAM_MPI"
)
done
```
The final leak can only be decided once all cells have been
deleted. So only exit on final invocation and give warning-only
beforehand. This avoids a lot of false positives.
The tutorial itself didn't actually produce a mesh with leakage
with the old settings. Upped the refinement level to force it
to go through the hole in the geometry.
- scripts/wmake.wmake-args partial logic for Allwmake scripts.
- handle '-quiet' as synonym for '-silent'
- Do not specify '-j' option for wrapped cmake creation to avoid
the warning:
make[1]: warning: -jN forced in submake: disabling jobserver mode.
ENH: defaulting for destructors where possible
STYLE: clear() instead of setSize(0) for plain Lists
STYLE: use bool operator instead of valid()/empty() for autoPtr tests
- enumerated values are (points | topology) which can be optionally
specified in the blockMeshDict. Default is 'topology'.
If the command-line option `blockMesh -merge-points` is specified,
this has absolute priority over any blockMeshDict entry.
STYLE: changed blockMesh "-blockTopology" option to "-write-obj"
- this is more specific to what it does. Potentially wish to add a
"-write-vtk" option in the future.
TUT: adjust tutorials to use preferred or necessary merge strategies:
* channel395DFSEM - topology
* nozzleFlow2D - points
* pipeCyclic - points
- dependency handling relocated from cmakeFunctions to wmakeFunctions
and reused for mpi-versioned builds. This allows more checks for
configuration parameters and removes hard-code build path
information.
CONFIG: remove spurious mplibHPMPI entries
CONFIG: remove ADIOS1 rules (antiquated)
- initial split of wmake-related commands into "plumbing" and
"porcelain" akin to how git handles things.
- wmakeBuildInfo (very low-level), now relocated to the wmake/scripts
and accessible for the user as "wmake -build-info".
This satisfies a long-standing desire to access build information
in a fashion similar to the api/patch information.
CONFIG: avoid git information when building with a debian/ directory
- when a 'debian/' directory exists, there is a high probability that
the '.git/' directory is from debian and not from OpenFOAM (ie,
useless here). This corresponds to an implicit '-no-git', which has
no effect when building from pristine sources.
ENH: wmakeCheckPwd becomes scripts/wmake-check-dir
- accessible for the user as "wmake -check-dir" and with 1 or 2
directory names. A wmakeCheckPwd symlink left for compatibility.
- less frequently used, but the information was previously inaccessible
under etcFiles.C.
Now exposed within the foamVersion namespace and defined under
<global.Cver> to improve configuration possibilities.
- convenient way to use alternative plugin installations
- provide separate -help-build information and reduce the noisy output
when a reader module cannot be located.
- adds into the include-quoted search list instead the general (-Idir)
search list.
* makes it less subject to ordering (since it will now generally be
searched first) and makes it less subject to how duplicate removal
is implemented. In some compilers (#1627), the last instance of
a duplicate directory would be used and not the first instance.
* removes clutter in some Make/options files
COMP: add missing linkage libraries
- improve handling of changes in ParaView/VTK or cmake parameters (#1693)
* adjust internals to support recording of an unlimited number of
configuration parameters and use file `cmp` instead of trying
to check strings ourselves.
ENH: new wmake/scripts/wmake.cmake-args handler
- additional handling of -prefix=... as CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX export.
- in some contexts, can use instead of AllwmakeParseArguments
- this specifically arises in the case we have used the `#eval` syntax
to generate a value.
However, since the expressions produce scalar/vector/tensor etc, the
tokenized value will *not* be introduced into the dictionary as a
label, even if it appears to be an integer value.
Eg, eval "2*5", eval "sqrt(100)" both yield `scalar(100)`, which
will not be suitable for any consumer expecting a label value.
With the `#calc` version, this problem is glossed over since it uses a
string buffer for the output (which can suppress the decimal)
and re-parses the string into tokens, which causes a label to be
recognized.
- Since we obviously already support implicit handling of ints as
floats (when reading), now also allow conversion of float
representations of integral values.
Uses the ad hoc value of 1e-4 for deciding if the value deviates too
far from being integral.
- As a side-effect, can now also support scientific notation when
specifying integers. Eg, (10 100 1e+3) for cell counts.
- simplified templating, which cleans up code and does not appear to
break any normal user coding.
ENH: unique_ptr instead of homegrown demand-driven handling.
For a given point within a given mesh, the existing `meshWave` method gives
the orthogonal distance to a patch. In meshes with very steep terrain (e.g.
a hill of 90 [deg], this might be problematic for the fields that require
the distance to the patch associated with the terrain surface.
`directionalMeshWave` is a variant of `meshWave` distance-to-patch method,
which ignores the component in the specified direction. Can be used e.g. to
calculate the distance in the z-direction only.
TUT: add example of directionalMeshWave to mesh/moveDynamicMesh/SnakeCanyon
Requirement by CENER
Implementation by Mattijs Janssens
- takes a search string and a replacement character.
The replacement character can also be a nul char ('\0'), which
simply removes the characters.
Possible uses:
* Replace reserved characters
str.replaceAny("<>:", '_');
* Remove shell meta-characters or reserved filesystem characters
str.replaceAny("*?<>{}[]:", '\0');
- construct from dimensioned/value, defaulting name from value.
Can be convenient for these type of operations:
max(.., dimensionedScalar(somedims, 0.5))
- construct from dimensioned/one, forwarding to pTraits::one.
Can be convenient for constructors:
volScalarField( ..., dimensionedScalar(somedims, one{}))
ENH: minor updates to zero/one classes.
- add global 'One' constant for symmetry with 'Zero'.
- clearer than passing a reference to a dummy variable,
or relying on move occuring within the copy constructor
(historical, but should be deprecated)
STYLE: consistent autoPtr syntax for uncollated file operations
- can help in circumstances when an zero-sized entry is written on
some processors, but the compound-type may be useful for determining
a particular code path when re-reading the files. Ensures that the
information is consistent on all processors.
STYLE: adjust separation of includes between List.H and UList.H
- bin/tools/create-mpi-config to query/write values for system openmpi.
In some cases this can be used to avoid an mpicc requirement at runtime.
- adjust openfoam session to include -test-tutorial forwarding to the
tutorials/AutoTest. This helps with writing installation tests.
- adjust foamConfigurePaths to latest version
- removal of gperftools default config, as per develop
1) Add interfaceHeatResistance model to icoReactingMultiphaseInterFoam
This model uses a spread source for the continuity Eq.
It is recommended for cases with good mesh resolution.
2) Adding iso-surface type of calculation for the interface for
the kineticGasEvaporation model
3) Add switch for option to take into account volume change
4) Add poolEvaporation tutorial
- remove MSWindows components (code and makefiles)
- use cxx, hxx extensions to reduce possible confusion with other
"list" and "vector" classes
- use C++ versions for C headers
- align wmake have_* scripts to support version query as per current
develop branch
- use config.sh/ fallbacks when the corresponding *_ARCH_PATH is empty
(eg, BOOST, CGAL, FFTW).
This aids when building outside of the regular OpenFOAM environment.
- add '[-+.~]' to the recognized qualifiers.
This allows simple readable names such as
WM_COMPILER=Clang-vendor
but also opens the FUTURE (not yet supported) possibility of
combining in additional information. For example,
WM_COMPILER=Clang~openmp
WM_COMPILER=Clang+cuda~openmp
by using '+' (add) and '~' (subtract) notation similar to what
spack uses.
CONFIG: support 'override' rules
- if present, compiler-family 'override' rules are included after
compiler-family 'general' rules have been included. This allows a
central means for including dynamically generated content to
override some values.
Some examples:
To handle different gcc versions (system compiler):
wmake/rules/...Gcc/override
```
ifneq (,$(findstring 9, $(WM_COMPILER)))
cc := gcc-9
CC := g++-9 -std=c++11
endif
```
To handle different openmp on Darwin (#1656):
wmake/rules/darwin64Clang/override
```
# Use libomp (not libgomp) unless openmp is disabled
ifeq (,$(findstring "~openmp", "$(WM_COMPILER)"))
COMP_OPENMP = -DUSE_OMP -Xpreprocessor -fopenmp
LINK_OPENMP = -lomp
else
include $(GENERAL_RULES)/no-openmp
endif
```
This treatment arguably fits into wmake/rules/darwin64Clang/general,
but it serves to illustrate a possible use case.
1) The sign of radiative flux (qr) for modes Power and HeatFlux was
corrected.
2) Relaxation factor implementation was incomplete. Now caching
valueFraction and refValue from the previous time step.
- use Clang instead of Gcc for Darwin since this is its system
compiler. The user can force use of Gcc by using Gcc92 etc.
- make etc/cshrc sed check more robust.
- replace tcsh (${%var}) syntax with ("${var}" != "")
[Fixes and ideas from Alexey Matveichev]
CONFIG: do not source the gperftools environment by default
- this is now an used feature, but can be re-enabled by advanced users
if required.
- as a side-effect of recent changes, command-line stripping of .gz
extensions on input was lost. For example,
OK: surfaceTransformPoints file.stl ...
Fail: surfaceTransformPoints file.stl.gz ...
- restore the previous behaviour of silently stripping the '.gz'
extension on input.
ENH: add triSurface::New selector entry point
- for symmetry with MeshedSurface
Now the thermal baffle can be extrapolated from a patch which is
coupled to the bottom patch of the solid region.
The user can set the T bc on the 'top' patch of the solid.
The new keyword is 'internal' and its default is true. Check new
tutorial for an example:
tutorials/heatTransfer/buoyantSimpleFoam/roomWithThickCeiling/
- reads/write shell elements
Output elements are "bunched" according to type and their set
without reordering.
- preliminary reading of solids without extraction.
Handling of *Surface specifications is not implemented
- enhancement and potential breaking change.
Nastran surface writer previously used the keyword 'scale' for
field scaling, which was applied uniformly to all output fields.
Change the meaning of 'scale' to be geometric scaling
(consistent with reading triSurfaceMesh etc).
New 'fieldScale' entry is an optional dictionary of scaling
parameters.
Example,
nastran
{
scale 1000; // [m] -> [mm]
fieldScale
{
"p.*" 0.01; // [Pa] -> [mbar]
}
}
- adjustments to internal handling to improve run-time addition of
other formats (eg, with additional user library)
For example, to write a binary STL with a '.stl' extension:
$ surfaceMeshConvert input.obj -write-format stlb output.stl
Or in a sampler,
to specify the input type without ambiguity:
surf
{
type meshedSurface;
surface sampling.inp;
fileType starcd;
scale 0.001;
...
}
STYLE: regularize naming for input/output scaling
* -read-scale (compat: -scaleIn)
* -write-scale (compat: -scaleOut)
CONFIG: change edge/surface selection name for STARCD format
- now select as "starcd" instead of "inp" to avoid naming ambiguity
with abaqus
- had a PrimitivePatch with SubField, but now use const pointField&.
There is no derivation path from a pointIOField to SubField<point>,
so a const reference makes more sense.
- face_type, point_type (similar to STL value_type, etc).
The naming avoids potential confusion with template parameters.
- rename private typedef from ParentType to MeshReference for more
consistency with polySurface etc.
- regression introduced by 431c9632f9
The triSurface dictionary constructor applies the scaling,
and thus it can be reported, but not applied in triSurfaceMesh
- previously used a Pstream::exit() invoked from the argList
destructor to handle all MPI shutdown, but this has the unfortunate
side-effect of using a fixed return value for the program exit.
Instead use the Pstream::shutdown() method in the destructor and allow
the normal program exit codes as usual. This means that the
following code now works as expected.
```
argList args(...);
if (...)
{
InfoErr<< "some error\n";
return 1;
}
```
- preferentially handle Allwmake.override, which allows packaging
tools to define alternative make scripts, or selectively disable
components.
- remove legacy handling of 'Optional' directory.
Conditionals have since migrated into scripts themselves and/or
use the wmake/scripts/have_* framework.
BUG: missed passing -debug for Allwmake scripts
- missed detection of system libraries when installed with multiarch
paths like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
CONFIG: improve handling of group/user config files (#928)
- changed bashrc handling of FOAM_CONFIG_NOUSER to use
FOAM_CONFIG_MODE instead. Propagate into foamEtcFile to make this
a stickier control.
This change allows better control, but also enables cluster
installations to define their own value within the OpenFOAM prefs.sh
file to prevent users accidentally mis-configuring things if
necessary.
- remove undocumented handling of an (a)ll mode in foamEtcFile to
avoid potential pitfalls.
- add support for FOAM_CONFIG_ETC handling.
This allows injection of an extra search layer when finding
project etc files
ENH: improvements to foamConfigurePaths (#928)
- handle FOAM_CONFIG_ETC implicitly, or explicitly with the new
-etc option.
STYLE: more explicit wording in foamConfigurePaths usage (#1602)
- document that an absolute path (eg, -scotch-path) overrides/ignores
the equivalent ThirdParty setting (eg, -scotch)
- longer options -system-compiler and -third-compiler for -system
and -third, respectively. Clearer as to their purpose.
- adjust the location sanity check to look for META-INFO directory.
- '-c' option (as per shell), '-Dkey[=value]' option to provide
preferences via the command-line. For example,
etc/openfoam -DWM_COMPILER=Clang -int64 ./Allwmake -j -s -l
These can also be combined with other options. Eg,
etc/openfoam -DWM_COMPILER=Clang \
-c 'wmake -show-path-cxx -show-cxxflags'
- relocated from bin/tools/ => etc/ for easier access
- bin/tools/openfoam.in : for autoconfig-style installation
- Auto-detect if the shell script was executed with openfoam and
interpret accordingly.
Simple example,
--------------
#!/usr/bin/openfoam
cd "${0%/*}" || exit # Run -*-sh-*- from this dir
blockMesh
simpleFoam
--------------
Note it is NOT currently possible to provide any other parameters
this way. Eg,
`#!/usr/bin/openfoam -sp` (NOT)
This will either fail to run, or result in infinite recursion.
- base level surface container is now a meshedSurface instead of
a triSurface. This avoid automatic triangulation of surfaces
when they are read, and simplifies the internals.
- sampling types:
* "meshedSurface" (compat: "sampledTriSurfaceMesh")
* "meshedSurfaceNormal" (compat: "sampledTriSurfaceMeshNormal")
- uses MeshedSurface instead of triSurface to prevent automatic
triangulation.
- supports '-patches' and '-excludePatches' controls as per foamToVTK.
For example,
surfaceSplitByPatch -patches '( ".*rider.*" )' motorBike.obj
ENH: use MeshedSurface for surfaceSubset
- removed swapZones method (unused, potentially fragile)
- add subsetMesh by name
BUG: incorrect zone assignment in MeshedSurface::subsetMesh
- used the new (zero-sized) zone when determining the old zone ending
instead of the original zone bounds.
- refactor logic from triSurfaceMesh for triSurface, MeshedSurface,
UnsortedMeshedSurface.
Makes it easier to locate and use surface files without the
triSurfaceMesh (meshTools) infrastructure.
STYLE: remove unused sampledTriSurfaceMesh constructors
Often we want to copy a field and replace boundary conditions, e.g. change type
to calculated for some patches. This has typically been achieved by creating a
word list of new patch types which are then fed through to the fvPatchField::New
factory method. This is OK for types that require no additional input (usually
from dictionary) but leaves other more complex types partially
constructed/usable.
The new constructor clones all BCs except those with indices specified, for
which the fvPatchField::New method is called for the supplied patch field type.
- avoid face copying.
Maintain separate offsets/list for non tri/quad face decomposition,
which eliminates copying for tri/quad types that represent the bulk
of geometries
- report inappropriate use of PLOAD2 for higher-ranks only once per
field instead of per face. For this case, write its magnitude
instead of 0.
- perform field output scaling prior to calling the write face
function. This will make it easier to handle different per-field
scaling in the future (#1612)
BUG: nastran quad written as "CTRIA3" instead of "CQUAD4"
- missed detection of system libraries when installed with multiarch
paths like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
CONFIG: improve handling of group/user config files (#928)
- changed bashrc handling of FOAM_CONFIG_NOUSER to use
FOAM_CONFIG_MODE instead. Propagate into foamEtcFile to make this
a stickier control.
This change allows better control, but also enables cluster
installations to define their own value within the OpenFOAM prefs.sh
file to prevent users accidentally mis-configuring things if

- remove undocumented handling of an (a)ll mode in foamEtcFile to
avoid potential pitfalls.
- add support for FOAM_CONFIG_ETC handling.
This allows injection of an extra search layer when finding
project etc files
ENH: improvements to foamConfigurePaths (#928)
- handle FOAM_CONFIG_ETC implicitly, or explicitly with the new
-etc option.
STYLE: more explicit wording in foamConfigurePaths usage (#1602)
- document that an absolute path (eg, -scotch-path) overrides/ignores
the equivalent ThirdParty setting (eg, -scotch)
- longer options -system-compiler and -third-compiler for -system
and -third, respectively. Clearer as to their purpose.
- adjust the location sanity check to look for META-INFO directory.
- string expansions have supported "${var:-default}" syntax for
several versions, but this did not apply plain dictionary expansions.
Eg, the following did not parse
massFlow ${entry1:-100};
ENH: remove content and length restriction on '${..}' quoted variables
- allows this type of content:
velocity2 ${velocity1:- ( 0 -100 10) };
- accept empty parameter strings for entries. This allows the
following expansion to work as expected:
hex (n1 n2..) ${inletBlock:-} (10 10 10) simpleGrading (1 1 1)
ie, optionally define the cellZone name for a given block
ENH: add single parameter dictionary writeEntry method.
- the dictionary knows its own name (dictName), which can be used
when writing content
Style changes:
- use std algorithm for some stringOps internals
- pass SubStrings iterators by const reference
ENH: special nullptr handling for ISstream getLine
- pass through to istream::ignore to support read and discard
1) Adding interfaceHeight FO
2) Adding interfaceHeatResistance mass transfer model to
interCondensatingEvaporatingFoam with spread source approach
3) Reworking framework for icoReactingMultiphaseInterFoam
* Support default values for format/compress enum lookups.
- Avoids situations where the preferred default format is not ASCII.
For example, with dictionary input:
format binar;
The typing mistake would previously have caused formatEnum to
default to ASCII. We can now properly control its behaviour.
IOstream::formatEnum
(
dict.get<word>("format"), IOstream::BINARY
);
Allowing us to switch ascii/binary, using BINARY by default even in
the case of spelling mistakes. The mistakes are flagged, but the
return value can be non-ASCII.
* The format/compression lookup behave as pass-through if the lookup
string is empty.
- Allows the following to work without complaint
IOstream::formatEnum
(
dict.getOrDefault("format", word::null), IOstream::BINARY
);
- Or use constructor-like failsafe method
IOstream::formatEnum("format", dict, IOstream::BINARY);
- Apply the same behaviour with setting stream format/compression
from a word.
is.format("binar");
will emit a warning, but leave the stream format UNCHANGED
* Rationalize versionNumber construction
- constexpr constructors where possible.
Default construct is the "currentVersion"
- Construct from token to shift the burden to versionNumber.
Support token as argument to version().
Now:
is.version(headerDict.get<token>("version"));
or failsafe constructor method
is.version
(
IOstreamOption::versionNumber("version", headerDict)
);
Before (controlled input):
is.version
(
IOstreamOption::versionNumber
(
headerDict.get<float>("version")
)
);
Old, uncontrolled input - has been removed:
is.version(headerDict.lookup("version"));
* improve consistency, default behaviour for IOstreamOption construct
- constexpr constructors where possible
- add copy construct with change of format.
- construct IOstreamOption from streamFormat is now non-explicit.
This is a commonly expected result with no ill-effects
- align Switch more with Enum.
Now have find(), found() static methods.
Constructors with failsafe option.
The find() method makes for clearer coding:
OLD
Switch sw(some_string, true); // NB: true = allowBad
if (sw.valid()) ...
NOW
Switch sw = Switch::find(some_string);
if (sw.good()) ...
or
if (Switch::found(some_string)) ...
- improve construct from dictionary to handle all valid token types.
Previously just read in a word.
- Remove asText() method - replaced by c_str() and str() several
versions ago.
- renamed 'core/' -> 'base/' to avoid gitignore masking when re-adding
files
- rename 'nas/' to 'nastran/' for more clarity
- relocated OBJstream from surfMesh to fileFormats
STYLE: remove unused parseNASCoord. Was deprecated 2017-09
- `tensor` and `tensor2D` returns complex eigenvalues/vectors
- `symmTensor` and `symmTensor2D` returns real eigenvalues/vectors
- adds new test routines for eigendecompositions
- improves numerical stability by:
- using new robust algorithms,
- reordering the conditional branches in root-type selection
- In the course of time, global funcs/opers of Tensor types expanded
leaving funcs/opers unordered.
- Therefore, by following the order designated in Matrix class, the order
of global funcs and global opers are reordered:
- oper+ oper- oper* oper/ inner-product double-inner-product outer-product
- ensures each Tensor-container operates for the following base types:
- floatScalar
- doubleScalar
- complex
- adds/improves test applications for each container and base type:
- constructors
- member functions
- global functions
- global operators
- misc:
- silently removes `invariantIII()` for `tensor2D` and `symmTensor2D`
since the 3rd invariant does not exist for 2x2 matrices
- fixes `invariantII()` algorithm for `tensor2D` and `symmTensor2D`
- adds `Cmpt` multiplication to `Vector2D` and `Vector`
- adds missing access funcs for symmetric containers
- improves func/header documentations
- includes restructuring and simplification of low-level ensight part
handling and refactor of backends to improve code reuse.
foamToEnsight
-------------
* new cellZone support.
This was previously only possible via a separate foamToEnsightParts
utility that was not parallelized.
* support for point fields.
* `-nearCellValue` option (as per foamToVTK)
* data indexing now uses values from the time index.
This is consistent with the ensightWrite function object and
can help with restarts.
* existing ensight directories are removed, unless the -no-overwrite
option is supplied
foamToEnsightParts
------------------
* now redundant and removed.
ensightOutputSurface (new class)
--------------------------------
* a lightweight wrapper for point/face references that is tailored
for the ensightSurfaceWriter. It uses compact face/point information
and is serial only, since this is the format requirements from the
surfaceWriter class.
ensightMesh (revised class)
---------------------------
* now only holds a polyMesh reference, which removes its dependency
on finiteVolume and allows it to be relocated under fileFormats
instead of conversion.
Removed classes: ensightParts, ensighPartFaces, ensightPartCells
- these were used by foamToEnsightParts, but not needed anymore.
- incorrectly set BINARY format in the construction of the received
data (a side-effect of the parameter ordering).
Now use the same default parameters as IFstream and set the correct
filename subsequent to construction.
- '-c' option (as per shell), '-Dkey[=value]' option to provide
preferences via the command-line. For example,
etc/openfoam -DWM_COMPILER=Clang -int64 ./Allwmake -j -s -l
These can also be combined with other options. Eg,
etc/openfoam -DWM_COMPILER=Clang \
-c 'wmake -show-path-cxx -show-cxxflags'
- relocated from bin/tools/ => etc/ for easier access
- bin/tools/openfoam.in : for autoconfig-style installation
- Auto-detect if the shell script was executed with openfoam and
interpret accordingly.

blockMesh
simpleFoam
--------------
Note it is NOT currently possible to provide any other parameters
this way. Eg,
`#!/usr/bin/openfoam -sp` (NOT)
This will either fail to run, or result in infinite recursion.
- simplifies code, covers most cases.
Can use wmake -show-api or wmakeBuildInfo to query the make rules.
STYLE: Allwmake script adjustments
- use bin/foamEtcFile instead of relying on PATH.
The make environment may not have the OpenFOAM bin/ in it.
- simpler shell syntax
Issues:
- neighbouring processors use different ray since always from
owner cc to nbr cc
- growing cellZones did not correctly unmark intersections
- stand-alone baffles now always removed (if inside 'grow' region,
i.e. within 1 cell of cellZone)
- the foamConfigurePaths script is quite simplistic and aggressive in
what it changes. This was particularly evident when using it to
change gcc/clang versions.
Restructured the corresponding compiler settings to define default
versions (eg, "default_gcc_version") that limits the scope of
changes performed by foamConfigurePaths and makes it easier to
understand if changing manually.

- provides an indirect access to a sub-section of a list that is
somewhat less efficient than a Foam::SubList, but supports the
following:
* adjustment of its addressing range after construction
* recovery of the original, underlying list at any time
This can be more convenient for some coding cases.
For example,
template<class Addr>
void renumberFaces(IndirectListBase<face, Addr>& faces, ...);
which can be called for
* Specific faces:
UIndirectList<face>(mesh.faces(), facesToChange)
* A sub-range of faces:
IndirectSubList<face>(mesh.faces(), pp.range())
* All faces:
IndirectSubList<face>(mesh.faces())
CONFIG: added IndirectListsFwd.H with some common forwarding
- the gcc c++/9 includes now inline strncpy, which obliterates
the previous method of suppressing the warning.
Now simply allocate additional space for the nul character.
COMP: silence some icc warnings
- make read construct from Istream explicit
BUG: sph(const SymmTensor2D<Cmpt>&)
- had incorrect constant, but the 2D routines still need more attention
(#1575)
- the vtkCellArray internal structure was still largely oriented on
the VTK legacy format, but has now been revised.
https://gitlab.kitware.com/vtk/vtk/merge_requests/5682
The `VTK_CELL_ARRAY_V2` define from vtkCellArray.h indicates
that the newer version is being used.
* In VTK-8.2.0 and older, sizes are interwoven (prefixed) in the
connectivity.
Connectivity: [n1, verts..., n2, verts... ]
When using these in vtkUnstructuredGrid, also needed a secondary
list of offsets for each of the starting locations.
* The update version now resembles a CompactListList. For example
Connectivity: [verts..., verts... ]
Offsets: [0, n1, n1+n2, n1+n2+n3... ]
The offsets are properly handled within vtkCellArray, and dropped as
an additional input for vtkUnstructuredGrid.
- indexing error in the output of values resulted in uniform output in
most cases.
- allocation error for on-the-fly triangulation
ENH: changed decomposed storage from DynamicList to plain faceList for
clearer allocation control and better overhead
- make stream constructors explicit
- remove "using std::ifstream", "using std::iofstream" statements
for a cleaner namespace.
* copy/move assignments for ITstream
* IStringStream: default construct and construct from std::string
instead of Foam::string
- reduce some overhead in masterOFstream
- simplify Pstream handling of string variants (#1525)
- this submodule (https://develop.openfoam.com/modules/visualization)
consolidates VTK-related visualization routines:
* catalyst
* paraview-plugins
* runTimePostProcessing
A benefit of this is make it easier to mix and match
different combinations of VTK/ParaView versions and capabilities
(Eg, MESA, MPI etc).
The catalyst submodule is now obsolete

- avoid stealing autoPtr in interpolationTable copy operations
- improve local memory requirements of readers
- make OpenFOAM table reader default constructible
- more code alignment between csvTableReader and Function1::CSV
(fix#1498 for csvTableReader as well)
Including `nu` in `DphitEff` even though it is not present in (LUU:Eq. 17)
provided higher level of resemblance to benchmarks for the tests considered,
particularly for the peak skin friction (yet, pressure-related predictions
were unaffected). Users can switch off `nu` in `DphitEff` by using
`includeNu` entry in `kEpsilonPhitFCoeffs` in order to follow the
reference paper thereat. `includeNu` is left `true` by default.

- remove (unused) Istream constructors, prune some unused methods,
rationalize write() vs writeDict().
Deprecate inconsistent construction order.
- handle empty names for ".ftr" surface patches (for plain triSurface
format) with double-quoted strings for more reliable streaming.
Written on a single line.
This is _backward_ compatible, but if users have been parsing these
files manually, they will need to adjust their code.
Previously:
```
(
frt-fairing:001%1
empty
windshield:002%2
empty
...
)
```
Updated (with example handling of empty name):
```
(
frt-fairing:001%1 empty
windshield:002%2 ""
...
)
```
- was in surfMesh/triSurface/patches/
now in OpenFOAM/meshes/Identifiers/surface/
This places the code closer to other identifier classes,
which aids in maintaining consistency
When more than one volumetric B-Splines control boxes are present, the
sensitivity constituents corresponding to the non-active design
variables were not bounded(zeroed) correctly. The resultant
sensitivities, used in the optimization, were bounded correctly, so this
was more a bug pertaining to the output file of the sensitivities rather
than a functional one.
- previously the store() method just set the ownedByRegistry flag.
Now ensure that it is indeed registered first.
- support register/store of tmp<> items.
The tmp parameter is not cleared, but changed from PTR to CREF
to allow further use.
The implicit registration allows code simplification using the
GeometricField::New factory method, for example.
Old Code
========
volScalarField* ptr = new volScalarField
(
IOobject
(
fieldName,
mesh.time().timeName(),
mesh,
IOobject::NO_READ,
IOobject::NO_WRITE,
true // Register
),
mesh,
dimless,
zeroGradientFvPatchField<scalar>::typeName

ptr->store();
New Code
========
auto tptr = volScalarField::New
(

dimless,
zeroGradientFvPatchField<scalar>::typeName
);
regIOobject::store(tptr);
or even
regIOobject::store

instead of the decomposeBlockData header.
- kEpsilonPhitF is a kEpsilon-based model which originated
from (Durbin, 1995)’s v2-f methodology. However, the majority of
v2-f model variants proved to be numerically stiff for segregated
solution algorithms due to the coupled formulations of v2 and f fields,
particularly on wall boundaries.
The v2-f variant (i.e. OpenFOAM’s v2f model) due to
(Lien and Kalitzin, 2001) reformulated the original v2-f model to enable
segregated computations; however, a number of shortcomings regarding
the model fidelity were reported in the literature.
To overcome the shortcomings of the v2-f methodology, the v2-f approach
was re-evaluated by (Laurence et al., 2005) by transforming v2 scale into
its equivalent non-dimensional form, i.e. phit, to reduce the numerical
stiffness.
This variant, i.e. kEpsilonPhitF, is believed to provide numerical
robustness, and insensitivity to grid anomalies while retaining the
theoretical model fidelity of the original v2-f model.
Accordingly the v2f RANS model is deprecated in favour of the variant
kEpsilonPhitF model.
When activeDesignVariables are not set explicitly, all design variables
are treated as active. These were allocated properly when starting from
0 but not when starting from an intermediate optimisation cycle
(e.g. running 5 optimisation cycles, stopping and restarting).
TUT: added a new tutorial including the restart of an optimisation run
to help identify future regression
The controlBoxes wordList was removed from NURBS3DVolume in the
pre-release phase but writeMorpherCPs was not updated accordingly.
TUT: added the invocation of writeMorpherCPs in one of the tutotials to
help identify future regression
- The core of the FatalIOError message was not printed due to exiting
with FatalError instead of FatalIOError
- Changed the TypeName in all derived classes of displacementMethod so
that the toc printed by the FatalIOError corresponds to what the user
should add in dynamicMeshDict
When a contact resistance is used the T field on each coupled
patch is different due to the thermal resistance. Thus, instead
of solving for a unique Tw at the wall, we solve for Tw1 at one side
then, the Tnbr internal becomes Tw2, which is the T of the nbr
patch.

Many possibilities:
- use as a simple calculator with vectors, tensors etc.
- test validity of expression syntax
As a calculator:
foamCalc '(vector(1,2,3) ^ vector(4,5,6)) * sqrt(34)'
The same, but with debugging:
foamCalc -debug-switch fieldExpr=6 \
'mag((vector(1,2,3) ^ vector(4,5,6))) * sqrt(34)'
- previously just reported gcc/clang versions, but these are not
necessarily the ones actually being used (eg, clang-9 vs clang).
Now use the path from `wmake -show-path-cxx` to improve the accuracy,
and also support other compiler types.
1) New skewCorrectedSnGrad for non-orthogonal and skewness corrector
2) New freeSurfacePressure and freeSurfacePressure working with
interfaceTrackingFvMesh
3) New interfaceTrackingFvMesh
- now use debug 2 for scanner and debug 4 for parser.
Provided better feedback about what is being parsed (debug mode)
- relocate debug application to applications/tools/foamExprParserInfo

ENH: modify fWallFunction for kEpsilonPhitF model
The k-epsilon-phit-f turbulence closure model for incompressible and
compressible flows.
The model is a three-transport-equation linear-eddy-viscosity turbulence
closure model alongside an elliptic relaxation equation:
- Turbulent kinetic energy, \c k,
- Turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate, \c epsilon,
- Normalised wall-normal fluctuating velocity scale, \c phit,
- Elliptic relaxation factor, \c f.

qem and qin were not set to zero for the wideBand model BC.
qin was used in the grey model BC to calculate Ir(the total
incoming heat flux). As it is now set to zero, the grey model
loops over the incoming rays to calculate Ir instead of relaying
on qin stored in radiativeIntensityRay.
- follows the principle of least surprise if the expansion behaviour

the local report for each patch is correct
- the PDRsetFields utility processes a set of geometrical obstructions
to determine the equivalent blockage effects.
These fields are necessary inputs for PDRFoam calculations.
After setting up the geometries, the -dry-run option can be used to
generate a VTK file for diagnosis and post-processing purposes.
- this is an initial release, with improvements slated for the future.
NOTE
- the field results may be less than fully reliable when run in
single-precision. This howver does not represent a realistic
restriction since the prepared fields target a combustion
application which will invariably be double-precision.
- locate where the user is less tempted to change it (#1515).
It really should be considered an invariant environment variable.
STYLE: wmake -help information to stdout, die errors to stderr
- The wmake -show-path-{c,cxx} options return the fully qualified
paths to the respective compilers. This can be useful when verifying
that the correct compiler is indeed configured.
- The -help-full to display the "advanced" options, but in the normal
case just show the basic options.
- reuse more of stringOps expansions to reduce code and improve the
syntax flexiblity.
We can now embed "pre-calculated" values into an expression.
For example,
angle 35;
valueExpr "vector(${{cos(degToRad($angle))}}, 2, 3)";
and the ${{..}} will be evaluated with the regular string evaluation
and used to build the entire expression for boundary condition
evaluation.
Could also use for fairly wild indirect referencing:
axis1 (1 0 0);
axis2 (0 1 0);
axis3 (0 0 1);
index 100;
expr "$[(vector) axis${{ ($index % 3) +1 }}] / ${{max(1,$index)}}";
- Failed due to double*Matrix<float> multiplication.
Style changes
- use SquareMatrix with Identity on construction
- use Zero in constructors
- remove trailing space and semi-colons
- skip processing OSspecific/MSwindows since this can cause duplicate
doxygen entries
STYLE: adjust formatting in code templates
STYLE: use std::string methods without extra qualifications
- ensure that the updateControl is "non-sticky" on re-read,
even if we do not support runtime-modifiable here
STYLE: add syntax example (wingMotion), but with updateInterval 1
- synchronize the scalar interval value with the integer version.
This ensures that the interval() method returns the correct
representative value.
- added clear() method to reset to 'always' (pass-through)
- ensure that the updateControl is "non-sticky" on re-read,
even if we do not support runtime-modifiable here
STYLE: add syntax example (wingMotion), but with updateInterval 1
The adjoint library is enhanced with new functionality enabling
automated shape optimisation loops. A parameterisation scheme based on
volumetric B-Splines is introduced, the control points of which act as
the design variables in the optimisation loop [1, 2]. The control
points of the volumetric B-Splines boxes can be defined in either
Cartesian or cylindrical coordinates.
The entire loop (solution of the flow and adjoint equations, computation
of sensitivity derivatives, update of the design variables and mesh) is
run within adjointOptimisationFoam. A number of methods to update the
design variables are implemented, including popular Quasi-Newton methods
like BFGS and methods capable of handling constraints like loop using
the SQP or constraint projection.

- when using VTK from ParaView sources it can better to tag them as
such, but simultaneously not mask the ParaView with hardware
rendering.
The additional ParaView_MESA_DIR variable allows this.
The balance of library and path setup is unaffected by this.
DOC: update doc/BuildIssues
- `Pkt` was directed to `GName` to allow wall functions
are usable by kkLOmega model
- `Pkt` was changed to a non-const object, so that omegaWallFunc
can modify `Pkt` at the wall, if need be.
- Elementwise backward compatibility was checked by
pimpleFoam/RAS/ellipsekkLOmega
- New implementation was checked by changing omega:hole boundary
in pimpleFoam/RAS/ellipsekkLOmega to omegaWallFunction
QRMatrix (i.e. QR decomposition, QR factorisation or orthogonal-triangular
decomposition) decomposes a scalar/complex matrix \c A into the following
matrix product:
\verbatim
A = Q*R,
\endverbatim
where
\c Q is a unitary similarity matrix,
\c R is an upper triangular matrix.
Usage
Input types:
- \c A can be a \c SquareMatrix<Type> or \c RectangularMatrix<Type>
Output types:
- \c Q is always of the type of the matrix \c A
- \c R is always of the type of the matrix \c A
Options for the output forms of \c QRMatrix (for an (m-by-n) input matrix
\c A with k = min(m, n)):
- outputTypes::FULL_R: computes only \c R (m-by-n)
- outputTypes::FULL_QR: computes both \c R and \c Q (m-by-m)
- outputTypes::REDUCED_R: computes only reduced \c R (k-by-n)
Options where to store \c R:
- storeMethods::IN_PLACE: replaces input matrix content with \c R
- storeMethods::OUT_OF_PLACE: creates new object of \c R
Options for the computation of column pivoting:
- colPivoting::FALSE: switches off column pivoting
- colPivoting::TRUE: switches on column pivoting
Direct solution of linear systems A x = b is possible by solve() alongside
the following limitations:
- \c A = a scalar square matrix
- output type = outputTypes::FULL_QR
- store method = storeMethods::IN_PLACE
Notes
- QR decomposition is not unique if \c R is not positive diagonal \c R.
- The option combination:
- outputTypes::REDUCED_R
- storeMethods::IN_PLACE
will not modify the rows of input matrix \c A after its nth row.
- Both FULL_R and REDUCED_R QR decompositions execute the same number of
operations. Yet REDUCED_R QR decomposition returns only the first n rows
of \c R if m > n for an input m-by-n matrix \c A.
- For m <= n, FULL_R and REDUCED_R will produce the same matrices
- handle zero or negative values as being identical to 1.
As per timeStep control and what the comments suggested.
- drop old outputTime enumeration, since this is covered by the
writeTime enumeration and a corresponding Enum name.
- support construction of a "pass-through" control object that always
executes and add some method to test for these conditions and be able
to output some meaning full information.
Eg,
if (ctrl.execute())
{
if (!ctrl.always())
{
Info<< "Sampling executed based on " << ctrl.type() << nl;
}
...
}
To produce "Sampling executed based on runTime"
Calculates the acoustic power due to the volume of isotropic turbulence
using Proudman's formula
The acoustic power \f$ P_A \f$ [W/m3] in terms of turbulence \f$ k \f$
and \f$ \epsilon \f$ is given as:
\f[
P_A = alpha_\epsilon \rho \epsilon M_t^5
\f]
where \f$ alpha_\epsilon \f$ is a constant (0.1) and
\f[
M_t = \frac{\sqrt{2 k}}{a_0}
\f]
with \f$ a_0 \f$ the speed of sound. The acoustic power is also output in
dB using:
\f[
L_P = 10 \log \frac{P_A}{P_ref}
\f]
where \f$ P_ref \f$ is a constant (1e-12 W/m3)
Usage
Example of function object specification to calculate the Proudman acoustic
power
proudmanAcousticPower1
{
type proudmanAcousticPower;
libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
...
// Required additional entries for incompressible calculations
rhoInf 1.225;
aRef 340;
}
Where the entries comprise:
Property | Description | Required | Default value
type | type name: proudmanAcousticPower | yes |
rhoInf | Freestream density for incompressible cases | no |
aRef | Reference spped of sound for incompressible cases | no |
alphaEps | Model coefficient | no | 0.1
Note
- The freestream density and reference speed of sound are only necessary
when a thermodynamics package is unavailable, typically for incompressible
cases.
- Allows user-defined control of when the mesh motion occurs,
which can be especially useful in situations where the mesh motion
is much slower than any of the fluid physics.
For example, in constant/dynamicMeshDict:
updateControl runTime;
updateInterval 0.5;
to have mesh motion triggered every 1/2 second.
Note that the _exact_ time that the mesh motion actually occurs may
be slightly differently since the "runTime" triggering is fuzzy in
nature. It will trigger when the threshold has been crossed, which
will depend on the current time-step size.
- The -Wno-deprecated-copy flag for gcc-9.2.0
In the future we may indeed wish to explicitly request default
generated constructors and assignment operators, but at the moment
these are still acceptable.
- The -Wno-alloc-size-larger-than flag for mingw compilations
Related to differences in PTRDIFF_MAX vs SIZE_MAX on the target.
Several issues related to this can be found in the gcc bug reports
and on stackoverflow etc.
COMP: delay evaluation of fieldToken enumeration types
- lazy evaluation at runTime instead of compile-time to make the code
independent of initialization order.
Otherwise triggers problems on gcc-4.8.5 on some systems where
glibc is the same age, or older.
Feature particle patch postpro filtering
### Summary
Adds options to write particle-patch interactions to file, and to select particle fields to post-process for the `patchPostProcessing` cloud function object
### Resolved bugs (If applicable)
none
### Details of new models (If applicable)
Cloud patch interaction models:
Optionally write patch interaction statistics, e.g. number and mass of particles that stick, escape etc. to file using the optional `writeToFile` entry, e.g.
```
localInteractionCoeffs
{
patches
(
"(walls|cyc.*)"
{
type rebound;
}
"inlet|outlet"
{
type escape;
}
);
// New optional entry
writeToFile yes;
}
```
Cloud function objects:
New `fields` optional entry can be used to select which particle fields to post-process; if empty or the entry is not given all fields are written (to provide backwards compatibility)
```
patchPostProcessing1
{
type patchPostProcessing;
// Optional new entry
fields (position "U.*" d T nParticle);
maxStoredParcels 20;
patches
(
cycLeft_half0
cycLeft_half1
);
}
```
See the `$FOAM_TUTORIALS/lagrangian/reactingParcelFilm/filter` tutorial for an example

Feature expressions
### Summary
This branch represents an implementation of what is considered to be the most useful aspects of swak4Foam ([Swiss-Army-Knife for FOAM](https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib/swak4Foam)) from Bernhard Gschaider, namely the ability to use text-based expressions instead of coding in C++ for the following cases:
- expression-based boundary conditions (also known as _groovy_ boundary conditions)
- expression-based setFields (also known as _funky_ set fields)
The idea of what we currently term *expressions* was pioneered by
(Bernhard Gschaider) and is now firmly established in `swak4Foam`.
Among other things, expressions attempt to bridge the gap between
using standard, predefined boundary conditions and writing dedicated,
special-purpose ones. Although part of this gap is now covered within
OpenFOAM by using dynamically compiled user coding (eg, coded boundary
conditions), there remains substantial areas where it can be
significantly more convenient to have a series of predefined functions
and expression sytax with some access to base OpenFOAM field
functionality that enables rapid deployment of boundary conditions, or
custom-defined `setFields` without writing code.
A significant portion of `swak4Foam` expressions has been adapted for
direct integration into OpenFOAM. During the integration and rewrite,
we have tried to pare things down to a smaller subset with the aim of
covering 90% or more of the common cases. The remaining cases are left
to be reassessed for extending the *expressions* functionality in the
future, but they also may be better served with other approaches (eg,
with coded conditions) that were not available when `swak4Foam` was
originally conceived.
To the greatest extent possible, the integrated *expressions* have
been designed to avoid name clashes with `swak` so it should remain
possible to use the most recent versions of `swak` without problem.
### Risks
- New functionality, so low chance of regression.
- The scope of the functionality will be revised in the future
### Naming (for `swak4Foam` users)
The following are the *expressions* correspondences to `swak`:
- The `exprFixedValue` and `exprGradient` boundary conditions are
roughly equivalent to the _groovy_ boundary conditions.
- The utilities `setExprFields` and `setExprBoundaryFields` are
roughly equivalent to the _funky_ utilities of similar name.
The naming of the boundary conditions and utilities not only reflects
the slightly different input requirements, but simultaneously seeks to
avoid any potential name-clash with `swak4Foam` in a mixed
environment.
The names for the boundary condition dictionary entries tend be
shorter and slightly different (eg, `valueExpr` vs `valueExpression`)
to serve as a small reminder that the *expressions* syntax is slightly
different than the *groovy* equivalents. It also allows the user to
fashion dictionary entries that are sufficient for **both** boundary
condition variants and quickly toggle between them simply by changing
the boundary condition `type`.
See merge request Development/openfoam!300
Limits fields to user-specified min and max bounds
Usage
Example of function object specification:
limitFields1
{
type limitFields;
libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
...
fields (U);
limit max;
max 100;
}
Where the entries comprise:
Property | Description | Required | Default
type | type name: limitFields | yes |
fields | list of fields to process | yes |
limit | bound to limit - see below | yes |
min | min limit value | partly |
max | max limit value | partly |
The "limit" entry can take the value:
- min : specify a minimum value
- max : specify a maximum value
- both : specify a minimum value and a maximum value
The optional 'fields' entry can be used to limit which particle fields are
written to file. If empty/not specified, all properties are written to
maintain backwards compatibility.
patchPostProcessing1
{
type patchPostProcessing;
maxStoredParcels 20;
fields (position "U.*" d T nParticle);
patches
(
cycLeft_half0
cycLeft_half1
);
}
- replace stringOps::toScalar with a more generic stringOps::evaluate
method that handles scalars, vectors etc.
- improve #eval to handle various mathematical operations.
Previously only handled scalars. Now produce vectors, tensors etc
for the entries. These tokens are streamed directly into the entry.
This condition applies a scalar multiplier to the value of another
boundary condition.
Usage
Property | Description | Required | Default value
scale | Time varing scale | yes |
patch | patchField providing the raw patch value | yes |
Example of the boundary condition specification to scale a reference
velocity of (15 0 0) supplied as a fixedValue by a table of values
that ramps the scale from 0 to 1 over 1 second:
<patchName>
{
type scaledFixedValue;
scale table
(
( 0 0)
( 1.0 1.0)
(100.0 1.0)
);
patch
{
type fixedValue;
value uniform (15 0 0);
}
}
- The previous option 'write-nut' controlled the writing of turbulence
nut, but other turbulence fields were always written.
These have been shown to be a source of instability for many cases.
This commit replaces the 'write-nut' option by a 'writeTurbulenceFields'
option that controls the writing of all turbulence fields.
If not set, only the velocity field is written.
For compatibility, the old 'write-nut' option is still recognized
but is redirected to 'writeTurbulenceFields'.
Set the m4 -I include accordingly to have the folllowing:
- the directory of the parser.
- include/ in the top-level source tree of the current target
(eg, src/finiteVolume/include-m4/ when compiling libfiniteVolume)
- include/ from OpenFOAM
Additional -dry-run option for makeParser, wrap-lemon for expanding m4
only.
Extend m4 wrapping support to include bison as well.
- include the trailing newline for the "// comment" form, but also add
in leading space removal. This ensure that we do not introduce odd
indentation, while also eliminating lines that are solely C++
comments.
- output the "uniform", "nonuniform" Field entry tags as words instead
of raw character strings, which can help for direct tokenization or
when sending/receiving via Pstreams.
- some support for "uniform" bool fields. Calculating an averaged
value for a boolField does not work very well, but we simply define
that the field average is 'true' when more than 1/2 of its values
are true. Not exactly true, but allows templated definitions to work
smoothly.
- additional output method writeValue().
This outputs the single (uniform) value or the first value of the
field.
- ITstream append() would previously have used the append from the
underlying tokenList, which leaves the tokenIndex untouched and
renders the freshly appended tokens effectively invisible if
interspersed with primitiveEntry::read() that itself uses tokenIndex
when building the list.
The new append() method makes this hidden ITstream bi-directionality
easier to manage. For efficiency, we only append lists
(not individual tokens) and support a 'lazy' resizing that allows
the final resizing to occur later when all tokens have been appended.
- The new ITstream seek() method provides a conveniently means to move
to the end of the list or reposition to the middle.
Using rewind() and using seek(0) are identical.
ENH: added OTstream to output directly to a list of tokens
---
BUG: List::newElem resized incorrectly
- had a simple doubling of the List size without checking that this
would indeed be sufficient for the requested index.
Bug was not triggered since primitiveEntry was the only class using
this call, and it added the tokens sequentially.
This adds automatic deletion of cells inside small gaps. This is
generally used to avoid having excessive numbers of cells in irrelevant
areas of a geometry. It is nearly the opposite of automatic gap refinement
- that refines cells to resolve the gap; this functionality removes cells
to not mesh the gap.
The proximity handling will remove those cells which are inside 'thin' gaps
where 'thin' is defined as a distance of 2*'blockLevel'
It will
- detect surfaces which have the new 'blockLevel' specification
- convert this to a minimum gap distance
- detect cells which are inside this gap
- remove these cells and add exposed faces to the nearest 'real' patch
- The case files may contain #... comment lines
- The geometry file may contain an optional "extents" entry
- Properly handle element id specifications (off|assign|ignore|given).
- Partially handle node id specifications (off|assign|ignore|given).
Treat "given" like "ignore", since results in the lightest amount of
coding and in many cases the "given" node ids are in fact 1-based
contiguous values and thus no different than "ignore" for our
purposes.
- allows use of Enum in more situations where a tiny Map/HashTable
replacement is desirable. The new methods can be combined with
null constructed for to have a simple low-weight caching system
for words/integers instead of fitting in a HashTable.
ENH: downgrade error on type-mismatch to a warning
- Ensight data files generated by OpenFOAM will start with the name of
the data type (Eg, "scalar", "vector" etc), but this convention may
fail for data files that have been generated elsewhere.
- since pointPatchField is not derived from Field, methods such as
negate() or a unary min(), max() are missing.
These have apparently not been needed thus far, but are used
indirectly via GeometricField.
- improves similarity to autoPtr. Simplifies coding.
Example,
tmp<volScalarField> tfield;
// sometime later...
tfield.reset
(
volScalarField::New("myfield", mesh, dimensionedScalar(Zero))
);
- as per tmp, disallow tmpNrc assignment from literal nullptr
- as per autoPtr, allow explicit test as bool (same as valid).
- can be useful when a scalarField has been used to store booleans and
we need to recover a bool directly and deal with potential rounding
issues.
ENH: support "any" as a Switch counterpart to "none"
- now indicate that the dictionary entry is missing, not that it is
an unknown function type.
STYLE: adjust PatchFunction1New.C to have logic structure look similar
- save in META-INFO/build-info for later re-compilation without git.
This improves tracking beyond simply referring to the the patch level.
The information is tagged with an underscore to distinguish from
"real" build information when git is available.
STYLE: improved shell syntax, pushd/popd guards etc.
- Previously, the default mapping method was `planarInterpolation` which was
silently suppressed by the default 'interpolate{R,U,L}=false'.
STYLE: changes:
`0` to `Zero`,
`lookupOrDefault` to `getOrDefault`
improves header documentation
- silently deprecate 'startsWith', 'endsWith' methods
(added in 2016: 2b14360662), in favour of
'starts_with', 'ends_with' methods, corresponding to C++20 and
allowing us to cull then in a few years.
- handle single character versions of starts_with, ends_with.
- add single character version of removeEnd and silently deprecate
removeTrailing which did the same thing.
- drop the const versions of removeRepeated, removeTrailing.
Unused and with potential confusion.
STYLE: use shrink_to_fit(), erase()
Example - create p-rgh from p:
pressure-p-rgh
{
type pressure;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
writeControl writeTime;
mode static;
rho rhoInf;
rhoInf 1;
hydrostaticMode subtract;
g (0 -9.81 0);
hRef 0;
}
- the hydrostaticMode entry is optional - setting is shown during construction
- g and/or hRef values are retrieved from the database if not specified
- This scheme is useful to calculate the face interpolation values for
the Gauss gradient when the diffussion coefficient is discontinuous
across a face. This sheme is used for Gauss grad.
- foamExec was removed as part of commit 6c68c34e1a but
overlooked the fact that it is partly still needed by foamJob.
When running in parallel, it is used to source the etc/bashrc env.
Reinstated a stripped down form, which has been relocated to
bin/tools directory (it should not be directly called by the user).
The previous version switching functionality has nonetheless be
dropped since it only worked only when a rigid naming convention for
OpenFOAM installations was followed.
ENH: add foamJob log=, -log-app, -no-log options, improved coding quality
- use sed instead of foamDictionary and avoid log file
- ensure consistent behaviour with plot script
GIT: added missing 0/k field : inlet values still need adjustment
- can be helpful, for example, when the refCast has been used on a
boundary patch. Knowing which patch index triggered the problem
helps with isolating the issue.
For example,
$ someSolver -info-switch writeOptionalEntries
- note that values changed via the command-line are changed after the
etc/controlDict entries, but *before* any case-local
system/controlDict entries.
However, in many testing cases the command-line options eliminate
the need for such local file modifications.
ENH: cleanup handling of local debug switches in Time
- add as methods directly on simpleObjectRegistry to avoid code
duplication
STYLE: adjust internal naming of ITstream parameters
- now reports the dictionary, entry, default. For example,
Dictionary: <case>/0/nut.boundaryField.wall Entry: Cmu Default: 0.09
Dictionary: <case>/0/nut.boundaryField.wall Entry: kappa Default: 0.41
Dictionary: <case>/0/nut.boundaryField.wall Entry: E Default: 9.8
- suppress reporting for debug, optimisation switches since this
generates extremely noisy output
- Now accept '/' when reading variables without requiring
a surrounding '{}'
- fix some degenerate parsing cases when the first character is
already bad.
Eg, $"abc" would have previously parsed as a <$"> variable, even
although a double quote is not a valid variable character.
Now emits a warning and parses as a '$' token and a string token.
- add toScalar evaluation, embedded as "${{EXPR}}".
For example,
"repeat ${{5 * 7}} times or ${{ pow(3, 10) }}"
- use direct string concatenation if primitive entry is only a string
type. This prevents spurious quotes from appearing in the expansion.
radius "(2+4)";
angle "3*15";
#eval "$radius*sin(degToRad($angle))";
We want to have
'(2+4)*sin(degToRad(3*15))'
and not
'"(2+4)"*sin(degToRad("3*15"))'
ENH: code refactoring
- refactored expansion code with low-level service routines now
belonging to file-scope. All expansion routines use a common
multi-parameter backend to handle with/without dictionary etc.
This removes a large amount of code duplication.
- add floor/ceil/round methods
- support evaluation of sub-strings
STYLE: add blockMeshDict1.calc, blockMeshDict1.eval test dictionaries
- useful for testing and simple demonstration of equivalence
- SubField and SubList assign from zero
- SubField +=, -=, *=, /= operators
- SubList construct from UList (as per SubField)
Note: constructing an anonymous SubField or SubList with a single
parameter should use '{} instead of '()' to avoid compiler
ambiguities.
- 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.
- Improves header file documentations
- Adds const specifier to various objects
- Allows various model constants to be user-defined
- Changes from lookupOrDefault() to getOrDefault()
- Consistent namespace usage:
- If the WF belongs to only Foam:: namespace, use Foam:: explicitly
- If the WF belongs to more than one namespaces, put the WF in namespace
parentheses
- Adds the missing dashes in comments required by Doxygen
- Corrects capitalisation in comments
- The terminology 'viscous sublayer' was preferred over 'laminar sublayer'
due to the fact that the sublayer is not laminar.
- The order of initialisation of fields is changed to be the same across all.
OpenFOAM.org commits for
src/TurbulenceModels/turbulenceModels/derivedFvPatchFields/wallFunctions
were reviewed.
The parts of the commits made by OpenFOAM.org removing various code
duplications across wall functions were picked up by keeping the remaining
functionalities the same.
The duplications were mainly due to:
- wall function model coefficients
- yPlusLam(), checkPatch(), write() methods
The duplications were united under the base nutWallFunction.
- since a zero-sized FixedList is disallowed, the accessors to the
first/last elements are always known.
This allows Pair second() to be noexcept as well (as per Tuple2)
- the #eval directive is similar to the #calc directive, but for evaluating
string expressions into scalar values. It uses an internal parser for
the evaluation instead of dynamic code compilation. This can make it
more suitable for 'quick' evaluations.
The evaluation supports the following:
- operations: - + * /
- functions: exp, log, log10, pow, sqrt, cbrt, sqr, mag, magSqr
- trigonometric: sin, cos, tan, asin, acos, atan, atan2, hypot
- hyperbolic: sinh, cosh, tanh
- conversions: degToRad, radToDeg
- constants: pi()
- misc: rand(), rand(seed)
- previously allowed mapped value modification with a const iterator.
However, this can lead to incorrect access patterns.
Now tie the constness of the mapped value to that of the iterator.
- Remove deprecated iterator object() method.
Was only used internally and was superseded by the val() method
in an earlier version.
ENH: change isPointer to isPointerLike
- can distinguish between real pointers and wrapped pointers
- 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).
- for special cases when normal writing is to be completely disabled
and replaced with alternate means (eg, via a function object).
- support "adjustable" as "adjustableRunTime" alias to reduce typing
for writeControl or outputControl
- use HashTable emplace instead of insert to avoid unneeded argument
(for HashSet).
- use emplace when generating zero-initialized values for
HashTable::operator()
- drop unused parameter from Detail::HashTableSingle,
adjust templates parameter names
- forward HashTable::operator[] to the semantically identical
HashTable::at() to avoid code duplication
- call also be used non-interactively for simple 'one-shot' use of
OpenFOAM utilities or solvers
STYLE: use dash instead of brackets for '- see www.OpenFOAM.com'
- less cluttered in combination with API information
- now maintains a correct list of geometry instances, without assuming
contiguous file numbering. However, if the numbering is contiguous,
the more compact case representation will be used.
- an advanced feature, for example when sampling on a static patch
while some motion occurs elsewhere. [use with caution]
- If the sampled surface dictionary is modified during run-time, the
ensight file indexing for the geometry will become out of sync.
This is addressed in a subsequent commit.
- this can be useful for preloading of libraries, or for utilities
that don't use system/controlDict.
The additional libraries can be specified individually:
myUtil -lib lib1 -lib lib2 -lib lib3
When specified like this, the options add up.
Or as a 'captured' list using OpenFOAM's standard arg list handling:
myUtil -lib '(' lib1 lib2 lib3 ')'
myUtil -lib \( lib1 lib2 lib3 \)
or as single argument list:
myUtil -lib '("lib1" "lib2" "lib3")'
When specified as a single argument, would normally take advantage
of the transparent handling of word vs fileName and omit the string
quotes:
myUtil -lib '(lib1 lib2 lib3)'
ENH: dlOpen error messages now propagated into dlLibraryTable
- this makes the context more relevant and also avoids the previous
annoyance of double warnings (one from the POSIX loader, and one
from dlLibraryTable)
STYLE: mark -noFunctionObjects and -withFunctionObjects as 'advanced'
- reduces clutter. Still visible with -help-full
- add additional rule (ending '.ll') for the combination of
flex for C-code but compiling the result as C++.
This can be needed for re-entrant parsers.
- update bison rule to handle renaming of skeleton files.
Use a wrap-bison script to manage this.
- relax casting rules
* down-cast of labelToken to boolToken
* up-cast of wordToken to stringToken.
Can use isStringType() test for word or string types
- simplify constructors, move construct etc.
- expose reset() method as public, which resets to UNDEFINED and
clears allocated storage etc.
DEFEATURE: remove assign from word or string pointer.
- This was deprecated 2017-11 and now removed.
For this type of content transfer, move assignment should be used
instead of stealing pointers.
1) Add softWall rigidBody restrain
2) Add linearSpringDamper sixDoF restrain to work as soft rope
3) dynamicMotionSolverListFvMesh changed to dictionary based input
4) Add Time reference access to sixDof restraints
5) Add drivenLinearMotion to solidBodyMotionFunctions.
- synchronization, reduction only makes sense on processor-coupled
patches. Since cyclic baffles are within a single processor domain,
they are not reduced. So need to skip the sanity test for these.
- the use of 'paraview --version' can be fail if the build host
doesn't have the necessary graphics. For this case, try to obtain
the ParaView API number from the associated include directory.
- the read offset missed the tag_ member entirely and thus the entire
particle information would be corrupt (incorrectly interpreted) as
well as potential violation of adjacent (trailing) memory locations.
- allows some internal handling for reading dissimilar storage types.
Eg, scalars written as float (WM_SP), but read as double (WM_DP)
- reading binary parcel coordinates with dissimilar storage types is
still pending
- change contiguous from a series of global functions to separate
templated traits classes:
- is_contiguous
- is_contiguous_label
- is_contiguous_scalar
The static constexpr 'value' and a constexpr conversion operator
allow use in template expressions. The change also makes it much
easier to define general traits and to inherit from them.
The is_contiguous_label and is_contiguous_scalar are special traits
for handling data of homogeneous components of the respective types.
- in addition to m() and n(), provide Matrix mRows()/nRows(), nCols()
methods. These provide unambiguous access names.
'mRows()' == for internal consistency with MatrixSpace.
'nRows()' == a commonly used naming.
- with 1906, OpenFOAM is purely C++ code and the last toolchain bits C
code have been avoided. Thus relax the wmake C rule for including
WM_COMPILE_OPTION. This makes it much easier to add different
compiler options with fewer files.
For example, for Broadwell-specific options:
cd wmake/rules/linux64Gcc
cp c++Opt c++OptBdw
edit this file and then use WM_COMPILE_OPTION=OptBdw
- ensure that WM_COMPILE_OPTION is always non-empty
- a top-level cloud::nParcels() virtual, which is overloaded by the
first level of Cloud inheritance. This permits quick determination of
cloud sizes, even when retrieved from registry with the base level.
Eg,
cloud* cldPtr = mesh.cfindObject<cloud>("myCloud");
label nParcels = (cldPtr ? cldPtr->nParcels() : 0);
- make writeLagrangianPositions on by default unless explicitly
disabled in the InfoSwitches.
Flag output errors (where neither coordinates nor positions are
written) with Fatal.
- additional IOField helper functions in cloud
STYLE: simplify iterator inheritance
- can now specify literal matches for sub-dictionary methods:
isDict(key, keyType::REGEX)
optionalSubDict(key, keyType::REGEX)
subDict(key, keyType::REGEX)
subOrEmptyDict(key, keyType::REGEX, mandatory)
There is no change in behaviour of the methods, just the search option
is now exposed as an optional parameter.
NOTE: minor breaking change for subOrEmptyDict()
old: subOrEmptyDict(key, bool=false)
new: subOrEmptyDict(key, keyType::option=keyType::REGEX, bool=false)
This affects code that previously explicitly set the bool parameter.
Within OpenFOAM itself, this only affected a single file:
KinematicCloud.C
- this is principally for cases where reduced indentation is desired,
such as when streaming to a memory location. If the indentation size
is zero or one, only a single space will be used to separate the
key/value.
This change does not affect the stream allocation size, since the
extra data falls within the padding.
ENH: relocate label/scalar sizes from Istream to IOstream.
- could allow future use for output streams as well?
Due to padding, reorganization has no effect on allocated size
of output streams.
STYLE: add read/write name qualifier to beginRaw, endRaw
- removes ambiguity for bi-directional streams
STYLE: fix inconsistent 'const' qualifier on std::streamsize
- base Ostream was without const, some derived streams with const
- allows full recovery of allocated space, not just addressable range.
This can be particularly useful for code patterns that repeatedly
reuse the same buffer space. For example,
DynamicList<char> buf(1024);
// some loop
{
OListStream os(std::move(buf));
os << ...
os.swap(buf);
}
Can read back from this buffer as a second operation:
{
UIListStream is(buf);
is >> ...
}
- When building OpenFOAM for different platform combinations
(single/double, int32/int64) the build information that is compiled
into the OpenFOAM lib can become out of sync.
This is because the update trigger (wmakeBuildInfo -check) is
independent of the targetted platform. The added file
'src/OpenFOAM/Alltouch' provides a direct means of forcing a rebuild
of the version information. Eg,
src/OpenFOAM/Alltouch
wmake src/OpenFOAM
Also provide an additional 'wmakeBuildInfo -remove' to forcibly
remove META-INFO/build-info, if that is desired.
- symmetric with writeRaw() etc for the output stream. These are
methods that are not required by normal users, but which provide
a finer granularity for reading.
- additional information about the current stream position when
endList fails. This may help when tracing errors.
STYLE: change return type of beginRaw()/endRaw() to bool
- was of type Ostream& for output, but return value was unused.
Having bool may be better for encapsulating logic
STYLE: remove unused Istream::readEndBegin() function
- in InterfaceCompositionPhaseChangePhaseSystem, the mass transfer
rates are updated as a side-effect of the massTransfer() method,
which makes these fields non-const.
- adapted openfoam.org code. Original commit message:
Instead of adapting tet base points cell-by-cell, the dangling
points are pre-computed and then the adaptations to the base points
are made face-by-face. This correctly adapts faces which have
different dangling points relative to the owner and neighbour cells.
- treat the faces that would be exposed on a subset as boundary faces
for the erosion algorithm
STYLE: adjust code for consistency between isoSurfaceCell and isoSurfaceTopo
- the behaviour of std::rename with overwriting an existing file is
implementation dependent:
- POSIX: it overwrites.
- Windows: it does not overwrite.
- for Windows need to use the ::MoveFileEx() routine for overwriting.
More investigation is needed for proper handling of very long names.
- this cannot be left as a configurable value (on windows), since it
needs to be enabled even prior to reading the etc/controlDict file,
in case the OpenFOAM installation path itself contains spaces.
- add an 'isoAlgorithm' keyword to distance surface and cutting plane
to advance further testing of the isoSurfaceTopo algorithm.
Does not yet handle the full spectrum of bound boxes, cellZones etc.
- unfriend HashSet, HashTable IO operators
- global min(), max(), minMax() functions taking a labelHashSet and an
optional limit. For example,
labelHashSet set = ...;
Info<< "min is " << min(set) << nl;
Info<< "max (non-negative) " << max(set, 0) << nl;
- make HashTable iterator '->' dereferencing more consistent by also
supporting non-pointer types as well.
- read HashTable values in-situ to avoid copying
- the Enum::readEntry() method was previously as bit sloppy with
respect to the enumeration that it accepted. If the input was
non-mandatory, typos would go unnoticed. Now tighten things so that
if an enumeration is found, it must also be valid.
STYLE: remove unused/deprecated Enum::lookupOrFailsafe() method
- this was only used in a few places internally in 1712 and 1806 but
has since then been superseded by getOrDefault() with an optional
'failsafe' flag.
- An identity is often useful when generating connectivity and offset
information.
- The optional repeat value for vtk::write() allows it to also be used
as a fill method.
- when searching for a file that may not actually exist,
the short-cut optimization could lead to the 'constant' directory
being ignored.
STYLE: simplify logic in points0MotionSolver::points0IO
- the scotch interface still uses non-const pointers when passing in
values. For the ConstPrecisionAdaptor this means that we need to cheat
with a constCast(). Using ref() will rightly trigger complaints about
trying to modify a const object.
Modifications to help avoid inadvertent overwriting of tutorialsTest:
- new '-force' option to overwrite existing directory
- generate a 'tutorialsTest/Alltest' script that disallows the
possibilty of self-recursion
- reverse mapping for the original point ids. This can be useful
when searching a subset of points, but needing to store access to
the original point index.
- move constructor.
- Allow use/not-use subset as an optional constructor argument for
more convenient caller logic.
- changed for 1906 to have a regIOobject always cleanup its
objectRegistry entry. No need to explicitly 'release' ownership
for this to now happen.
- doxygen formatting for MeshObject
