Detailed Description

BlockIndices represents a range of indices (such as the range \([0,N)\) of valid indices for elements of a vector) and how this one range is broken down into smaller but contiguous "blocks" (such as the velocity and pressure parts of a solution vector). In particular, it provides the ability to translate between global indices and the indices within a block. This class is used, for example, in the BlockVector, BlockSparsityPattern, and BlockMatrixBase classes.

The information that can be obtained from this class falls into two groups. First, it is possible to query the global size of the index space (through the total_size() member function), and the number of blocks and their sizes (via size() and the block_size() functions).

Secondly, this class manages the conversion of global indices to the local indices within this block, and the other way around. This is required, for example, when you address a global element in a block vector and want to know within which block this is, and which index within this block it corresponds to. It is also useful if a matrix is composed of several blocks, where you have to translate global row and column indices to local ones.

BlockIndices::BlockIndices ( BlockIndices &&  b)
inlinenoexcept

Move constructor. Initialize a new object by stealing the internal data of another BlockIndices object.

Definition at line 260 of file block_indices.h.

void BlockIndices::reinit ( const std::vector< size_type > &  block_sizes)
inline

Reinitialize the number of indices within each block from the given argument. The number of blocks will be adjusted to the size of block_sizes and the size of block i is set to block_sizes[i].

Definition at line 271 of file block_indices.h.

void BlockIndices::push_back ( const size_type  size)
inline

Add another block of given size to the end of the block structure.

Definition at line 322 of file block_indices.h.

unsigned int BlockIndices::size ( ) const
inline

Number of blocks in index field.

Definition at line 358 of file block_indices.h.

BlockIndices::size_type BlockIndices::total_size ( ) const

Return the total number of indices accumulated over all blocks, that is, the dimension of the vector space of the block vector.

Definition at line 366 of file block_indices.h.

inline

The size of the ith block.

std::string BlockIndices::to_string ( ) const
inline

String representation of the block sizes. The output is of the form [nb->b1,b2,b3|s], where nb is n_blocks(), s is total_size() and b1 etc. are the values returned by block_size() for each of the blocks.

Definition at line 385 of file block_indices.h.

std::pair< unsigned int, BlockIndices::size_type > BlockIndices::global_to_local ( const size_type  i) const
