MeshCellBase_3 Concept Reference
Secondary Concepts

Definition

The concept MeshCellBase_3 describes the requirements for the Cell type of the triangulation used in the 3D mesh generation process. The type MeshCellBase_3 refines the concept RegularTriangulationCellBase_3. The concept MeshCellBase_3 includes a way to store and retrieve if a given cell of the triangulation is inside the domain or not and which subdomain it belongs to in case of a multi-domain.

Moreover, this concept adds four markers per cell to mark the facets of the triangulation that are surface facets, and four additional helper markers used in some operations to mark for instance the facets that have been visited.

This concept also provides storage for the centers of Delaunay surface balls. Each surface facet has a Delaunay surface ball, i. e. a circumscribing ball, centered on an input complex surface patch, and empty of triangulation vertices. In the following we call surface center of a surface facet, the center of its biggest Delaunay surface ball.

The optimizers also need this concept to provide read-write access to two Cell_handle called 'intrusive'.

Internal

These functions are used internally by mesh optimizers.

The class should provide storage, accessors and modificators for two Vertex_handle and two Cell_handle.

void set_next_intrusive (Cell_handle)
 
Cell_handle previous_intrusive () const

typedef unspecified_type MeshCellBase_3::Index

Type of indices to be stored at mesh vertices to characterize the lowest dimensional face of the input complex on which a possible future Steiner vertex lies.

Must match the type MeshDomain_3::Index.

typedef unspecified_type MeshCellBase_3::Subdomain_index

Type of indices for cells of the input complex.

Must match the type MeshDomain_3::Subdomain_index.

Member Function Documentation

void MeshCellBase_3::invalidate_circumcenter ( )

Invalidates the circumcenter value stored in the cell.

This value is usually stored in the cell, but the optimizers need to be able to invalidate this cache value.
