Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ FiniteElement() [1/4]

template<std::floating_point T>

FiniteElement	(	const basix::FiniteElement< geometry_type > &	element,
		std::optional< std::vector< std::size_t > >	value_shape = std::nullopt,
		bool	symmetric = false )

Create a finite element from a Basix finite element.

Parameters

[in]	element	Basix finite element.
[in]	value_shape	Value shape for blocked element, e.g. `{3}` for a vector in 3D or `{2, 2}` for a rank-2 tensor in 2D. Can only be set for blocked scalar `element`. For other elements and scalar elements it should be `std::nullopt`.
[in]	symmetric	Is the element a symmetric tensor? Should ony set for 2nd-order tensor blocked elements.

◆ FiniteElement() [2/4]

template<std::floating_point T>

FiniteElement ( std::vector< BasixElementData< geometry_type > > elements )

Create a mixed finite element from Basix finite elements.

See FiniteElement(const std::vector<std::shared_ptr<const FiniteElement<geometry_type>>>&) for a discussion of mixed elements.

Parameters

[in] elements List of (Basix finite element, block size, symmetric) tuples, one for each element in the mixed element.

◆ FiniteElement() [3/4]

template<std::floating_point T>

FiniteElement ( const std::vector< std::shared_ptr< const FiniteElement< geometry_type > > > & elements )

Create a mixed finite element from a list of finite elements.

This constructs a mixed element \(E_0 \times E_1 \times \ldots \times E_{n-1}\). The *i*th sub-element \(E_i\) can be accessed by extract_sub_element. Functions defined on mixed element spaces cannot be interpolated into directly. It is necessary to first extract a sub-Function (view), which can then be interpolated into.

A mixed element can be constructed from one element. In this case the FiniteElement behaves like a mixed element and cannot be interpolated into. The underlying element can be accessed using extract_sub_element.

Parameters

[in] elements Finite elements to compose the mixed element from.

◆ FiniteElement() [4/4]

template<std::floating_point T>

FiniteElement	(	mesh::CellType	cell_type,
		std::span< const geometry_type >	points,
		std::array< std::size_t, 2 >	pshape,
		std::vector< std::size_t >	value_shape = {},
		bool	symmetric = false )

Create a quadrature element.

Parameters

[in]	cell_type	Cell type.
[in]	points	Quadrature points.
[in]	pshape	Shape of `points` array.
[in]	value_shape	Value shape for the element.
[in]	symmetric	Is the element a symmetric tensor?

Member Function Documentation

◆ basix_element()

template<std::floating_point T>

const basix::FiniteElement< T > & basix_element ( ) const

Return underlying Basix element (if it exists).

Exceptions

Throws a std::runtime_error is there no Basix element.

◆ block_size()

template<std::floating_point T>

int block_size ( ) const

noexcept

Block size of the finite element function space.

For non-blocked elements, this is always 1. For blocked elements, this is the number of DOFs collocated at each DOF point. For blocked elements the block size is equal to the value size, except for symmetric rank-2 tensor blocked elements. For a symmetric rank-2 tensor blocked element the block size is 3 in 2D and 6 in 3D.

Returns: Block size of the finite element space.

◆ create_interpolation_operator()

template<std::floating_point T>

std::pair< std::vector< T >, std::array< std::size_t, 2 > > create_interpolation_operator ( const FiniteElement< T > & from ) const

Create a matrix that maps degrees of freedom from one element to this element (interpolation).

Parameters

[in] from The element to interpolate from.

Returns: Matrix operator that maps the from degrees-of-freedom to the degrees-of-freedom of this element. The (0) matrix data (row-major storage) and (1) the shape (num_dofs of this element, num_dofs of from) are returned.

Precondition: The two elements must use the same mapping between the reference and physical cells.

Note: Does not support mixed elements.

◆ dof_permutation_fn()

template<std::floating_point T>

std::function< void(std::span< std::int32_t >, std::uint32_t)> dof_permutation_fn	(	bool	inverse = false,
		bool	scalar_element = false ) const

Return a function that applies a degree-of-freedom permutation to some data.

The returned function can apply permute() to mixed-elements.

The signature of the returned function has three arguments:

[in,out] doflist The numbers of the DOFs, a span of length num_dofs
[in] cell_permutation Permutation data for the cell
[in] block_size The block_size of the input data

Parameters

[in]	inverse	Indicates if the inverse transformation should be returned.
[in]	scalar_element	Indicates is the scalar transformations should be returned for a vector element.

◆ dof_transformation_fn()

template<std::floating_point T>

template<typename U >

std::function< void(std::span< U >, std::span< const std::uint32_t >, std::int32_t, int)> dof_transformation_fn	(	doftransform	ttype,
		bool	scalar_element = false ) const

inline

Return a function that applies a DOF transformation operator to some data (see T_apply()).

The transformation is applied from the left-hand side, i.e.

\[ u \leftarrow T u. \]

If the transformation for the (sub)element is a permutation only, the returned function will do change the ordering for the (sub)element as it is assumed that permutations are incorporated into the degree-of-freedom map.

See the documentation for T_apply() for a description of the transformation for a single element type. This function generates a function that can apply the transformation to a mixed element.

The signature of the returned function has four arguments:

[in,out] data The data to be transformed. This data is flattened with row-major layout, shape=(num_dofs, block_size)
[in] cell_info Permutation data for the cell. The size of this is num_cells. For elements where no transformations are required, an empty span can be passed in.
[in] cell The cell number.
[in] n The block_size of the input data.

Parameters

[in]	ttype	The transformation type. Typical usage is: doftransform::standard Transforms basis function data from the reference element to the conforming 'physical' element, e.g. \(\phi = T \tilde{\phi}\). doftransform::transpose Transforms degree-of-freedom data from the conforming (physical) ordering to the reference ordering, e.g. \(\tilde{u} = T^{T} u\). doftransform::inverse: Transforms basis function data from the the conforming (physical) ordering to the reference ordering, e.g. \(\tilde{\phi} = T^{-1} \phi\). doftransform::inverse_transpose: Transforms degree-of-freedom data from the reference element to the conforming (physical) ordering, e.g. \(u = T^{-t} \tilde{u}\).
[in]	scalar_element	Indicates whether the scalar transformations should be returned for a vector element.

◆ dof_transformation_right_fn()

template<std::floating_point T>

template<typename U >

std::function< void(std::span< U >, std::span< const std::uint32_t >, std::int32_t, int)> dof_transformation_right_fn	(	doftransform	ttype,
		bool	scalar_element = false ) const

inline

Return a function that applies DOF transformation to some transposed data (see T_apply_right()).

The transformation is applied from the right-hand side, i.e.

\[ u^{t} \leftarrow u^{t} T. \]

If the transformation for the (sub)element is a permutation only, the returned function will do change the ordering for the (sub)element as it is assumed that permutations are incorporated into the degree-of-freedom map.

The signature of the returned function has four arguments:

[in,out] data The data to be transformed. This data is flattened with row-major layout, shape=(num_dofs, block_size)
[in] cell_info Permutation data for the cell. The size of this is num_cells. For elements where no transformations are required, an empty span can be passed in.
[in] cell The cell number
[in] block_size The block_size of the input data

Parameters

[in]	ttype	Transformation type. See dof_transformation_fn().
[in]	scalar_element	Indicate if the scalar transformations should be returned for a vector element.

◆ interpolation_ident()

template<std::floating_point T>

bool interpolation_ident ( ) const

noexcept

Check if interpolation into the finite element space is an identity operation given the evaluation on an expression at specific points, i.e. the degree-of-freedom are equal to point evaluations. The function will return true for Lagrange elements.

Returns: True if interpolation is an identity operation

◆ interpolation_operator()

template<std::floating_point T>

std::pair< std::vector< T >, std::array< std::size_t, 2 > > interpolation_operator ( ) const

Interpolation operator (matrix) Pi that maps a function evaluated at the points provided by FiniteElement::interpolation_points to the element degrees of freedom, i.e. dofs = Pi f_x. See the Basix documentation for basix::FiniteElement::interpolation_matrix for how the data in f_x should be ordered.

Returns: The interpolation operator Pi, returning the data for Pi (row-major storage) and the shape (num_dofs, num_points * / value_size)

◆ interpolation_points()

template<std::floating_point T>

std::pair< std::vector< T >, std::array< std::size_t, 2 > > interpolation_points ( ) const

Points on the reference cell at which an expression needs to be evaluated in order to interpolate the expression in the finite element space.

For Lagrange elements the points will just be the nodal positions. For other elements the points will typically be the quadrature points used to evaluate moment degrees of freedom.

Returns: Interpolation point coordinates on the reference cell, returning the (0) coordinates data (row-major) storage and (1) the shape (num_points, tdim).

◆ is_mixed()

template<std::floating_point T>

bool is_mixed ( ) const

noexcept

Check if element is a mixed element.

A mixed element is composed of two or more elements of different types. A blocked element, e.g. a Lagrange element with block size >= 1 is not considered mixed.

Returns: True if element is mixed.

◆ map_ident()

template<std::floating_point T>

bool map_ident ( ) const

noexcept

Check if the push forward/pull back map from the values on reference to the values on a physical cell for this element is the identity map.

Returns: True if the map is the identity

◆ needs_dof_permutations()

template<std::floating_point T>

bool needs_dof_permutations ( ) const

noexcept

Check if DOF permutations are needed for this element.

DOF permutations will be needed for elements which might not be continuous when two neighbouring cells disagree on the orientation of a shared subentity, and when this can be corrected for by permuting the DOF numbering in the dofmap.

For example, higher order Lagrange elements will need DOF permutations, as the arrangement of DOFs on a shared sub-entity may be different from the point of view of neighbouring cells, and this can be corrected for by permuting the DOF numbers on each cell.

Returns: True if DOF transformations are required.

◆ needs_dof_transformations()

template<std::floating_point T>

bool needs_dof_transformations ( ) const

noexcept

Check if DOF transformations are needed for this element.

DOF transformations will be needed for elements which might not be continuous when two neighbouring cells disagree on the orientation of a shared sub-entity, and when this cannot be corrected for by permuting the DOF numbering in the dofmap.

For example, Raviart-Thomas elements will need DOF transformations, as the neighbouring cells may disagree on the orientation of a basis function, and this orientation cannot be corrected for by permuting the DOF numbers on each cell.

Returns: True if DOF transformations are required.

◆ num_sub_elements()

template<std::floating_point T>

int num_sub_elements ( ) const

noexcept

Number of sub elements (for a mixed or blocked element).

template<std::floating_point T>

bool operator!= ( const FiniteElement< T > & e ) const

Check if two elements are not equivalent.

◆ operator==()

template<std::floating_point T>

bool operator== ( const FiniteElement< T > & e ) const

Check if two elements are equivalent.

Returns: True is the two elements are the same.

Note: Equality can be checked only for non-mixed elements. For a mixed element, this function will throw an exception.

		std::uint32_t	cell_permutation ) const

Permute indices associated with degree-of-freedoms on the reference element ordering to the globally consistent physical element degree-of-freedom ordering.

Given an array \(\tilde{d}\) that holds an integer associated with each degree-of-freedom and following the reference element degree-of-freedom ordering, this function computes

\[ d = P \tilde{d},\]

where \(P\) is a permutation matrix and \(d\) holds the integers in \(\tilde{d}\) but permuted to follow the globally consistent physical element degree-of-freedom ordering. The permutation is computed in-place.

Parameters

[in,out]	doflist	Indicies associated with the degrees-of-freedom. Size=`num_dofs`.
[in]	cell_permutation	Permutation data for the cell.

◆ permute_inv()

template<std::floating_point T>

void permute_inv	(	std::span< std::int32_t >	doflist,
		std::uint32_t	cell_permutation ) const

Perform the inverse of the operation applied by permute().

Given an array \(d\) that holds an integer associated with each degree-of-freedom and following the globally consistent physical element degree-of-freedom ordering, this function computes

\[ \tilde{d} = P^{T} d, \]

where \(P^{T}\) is a permutation matrix and \(\tilde{d}\) holds the integers in \(d\) but permuted to follow the reference element degree-of-freedom ordering. The permutation is computed in-place.

Parameters

[in,out]	doflist	Indicies associated with the degrees-of-freedom. Size=`num_dofs`.
[in]	cell_permutation	Permutation data for the cell.

◆ reference_value_shape()

template<std::floating_point T>

std::span< const std::size_t > reference_value_shape ( ) const

Value shape of the base (non-blocked) finite element field.

For non-blocked elements, this function returns the same as FiniteElement::value_shape. For blocked and quadrature elements the returned shape will be {}.

Mixed elements do not have a reference value shape.

Exceptions

Exception is thrown for a mixed element as mixed elements do not have a value shape.

Returns: The value shape.

◆ reference_value_size()

template<std::floating_point T>

int reference_value_size ( ) const

Value size of the base (non-blocked) finite element field.

The reference value size is the product of the reference value shape, e.g. it is 1 for a scalar element, 2 for a 2D (non-blocked) vector, 9 for a (non-blocked) second-order tensor in 3D, etc.

For blocked elements, this function returns the value shape for the 'base' element from which the blocked element is composed. For other elements, the return value is the same as FiniteElement::value_shape.

Exceptions

Exception is thrown for a mixed element as mixed elements do not have a value shape.

Returns: The value size.

◆ signature()

template<std::floating_point T>

std::string signature ( ) const

noexcept

String identifying the finite element.

Returns: Element signature

Warning: The function is provided for convenience, but it should not be relied upon for determining the element type. Use other functions, commonly returning enums, to determine element properties.

◆ space_dimension()

template<std::floating_point T>

int space_dimension ( ) const

noexcept

Dimension of the finite element function space (the number of degrees-of-freedom for the element).

For 'blocked' elements, this function returns the dimension of the full element rather than the dimension of the base element.

Returns: Dimension of the finite element space.

◆ T_apply()

template<std::floating_point T>

template<typename U >

void T_apply	(	std::span< U >	data,
		std::uint32_t	cell_permutation,
		int	n ) const

inline

Transform basis functions from the reference element ordering and orientation to the globally consistent physical element ordering and orientation.

Consider that the value of a finite element function \(f_{h}\) at a point is given by

\[ f_{h} = \phi^{T} c, \]

where \(f_{h}\) has shape \(r \times 1\), \(\phi\) has shape \(d \times r\) and holds the finite element basis functions, and \(c\) has shape \(d \times 1\) and holds the degrees-of-freedom. The basis functions and degree-of-freedom are with respect to the physical element orientation. If the degrees-of-freedom on the physical element orientation are given by

\[ \phi = T \tilde{\phi}, \]

where \(T\) is a \(d \times d\) matrix, it follows from \(f_{h} = \phi^{T} c = \tilde{\phi}^{T} T^{T} c\) that

\[ \tilde{c} = T^{T} c. \]

This function applies \(T\) to data. The transformation is performed in-place. The operator \(T\) is orthogonal for many elements, but not all.

This function calls the corresponding Basix function.

Parameters

template<typename U >

void Tt_apply_right	(	std::span< U >	data,
		std::uint32_t	cell_permutation,
		int	n ) const

inline

Right(post)-apply the transpose of the operator applied by T_apply().

Computes

\[ v^{T} = u^{T} T^{T} \]

in-place.

Parameters

[in,out]	data	Data to be transformed. The data is flattened with row-major layout, `shape=(num_dofs, block_size)`.
[in]	cell_permutation	Permutation data for the cell
[in]	n	Block size of the input data.

◆ Tt_inv_apply()

template<std::floating_point T>

template<typename U >

void Tt_inv_apply	(	std::span< U >	data,
		std::uint32_t	cell_permutation,
		int	n ) const

inline

Apply the inverse transpose of the operator applied by T_apply().

The transformation

\[ v = T^{-T} u \]

is performed in-place.

Parameters

[in,out]	data	The data to be transformed. This data is flattened with row-major layout, `shape=(num_dofs, block_size)`.
[in]	cell_permutation	Permutation data for the cell.
[in]	n	Block_size of the input data.

◆ Tt_inv_apply_right()

template<std::floating_point T>

template<typename U >

void Tt_inv_apply_right	(	std::span< U >	data,
		std::uint32_t	cell_permutation,
		int	n ) const

inline

Right(post)-apply the transpose inverse of the operator applied by T_apply().

Computes

\[ v^{T} = u^{T} T^{-T} \]

in-place.

Parameters

[in,out]	data	Data to be transformed. This data is flattened with row-major layout, `shape=(num_dofs, block_size)`.
[in]	cell_permutation	Permutation data for the cell.
[in]	n	Block size of the input data.

◆ value_shape()

template<std::floating_point T>

std::span< const std::size_t > value_shape ( ) const

Value shape of the finite element field.

The value shape describes the shape of the finite element field, e.g. {} for a scalar, {2} for a vector in 2D, {3, 3} for a rank-2 tensor in 3D, etc.

Exceptions

Exception is thrown for a mixed element as mixed elements do not have a value shape.

Returns: The value shape.

◆ value_size()

template<std::floating_point T>

int value_size ( ) const

Value size of the finite element field.

The value size is the number of components in the finite element field. It is the product of the value shape, e.g. is is 1 for a scalar function, 2 for a 2D vector, 9 for a second-order tensor in 3D, etc. For blocked elements, this function returns the value size for the full 'blocked' element.

Note: The return value of this function is inconsistent with value_shape() for rank-2 'symmetric' elements. Due to issues elsewhere in the code base, rank-2 symmetric fields have value shape {3} (2D) or {6} rather than {2, 2} and {3, 3}, respectively. For symmetric rank-2 tensors this function returns 4 for 2D cases and 9 for 3D cases. This inconsistency will be fixed in the future.

Exceptions

Exception is thrown for a mixed element as mixed elements do not have a value shape.

Returns: The value size.
