Detailed Description

template<int dim>
class PolynomialsRaviartThomas< dim >

This class implements the Hdiv-conforming, vector-valued Raviart-Thomas polynomials as described in the book by Brezzi and Fortin.

The Raviart-Thomas polynomials are constructed such that the divergence is in the tensor product polynomial space Qk. Therefore, the polynomial order of each component must be one order higher in the corresponding direction, yielding the polynomial spaces (Qk+1,k, Qk,k+1) and (Qk+1,k,k, Qk,k+1,k, Qk,k,k+1) in 2D and 3D, resp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<int dim>
PolynomialsRaviartThomas< dim >::PolynomialsRaviartThomas ( const unsigned int  k)

Constructor. Creates all basis functions for Raviart-Thomas polynomials of given degree.

  • k: the degree of the Raviart-Thomas-space, which is the degree of the largest tensor product polynomial space Qk contains.

Member Function Documentation

template<int dim>
void PolynomialsRaviartThomas< dim >::compute ( const Point< dim > &  unit_point,
std::vector< Tensor< 1, dim >> &  values,
std::vector< Tensor< 2, dim >> &  grads,
std::vector< Tensor< 3, dim >> &  grad_grads,
std::vector< Tensor< 4, dim >> &  third_derivatives,
std::vector< Tensor< 5, dim >> &  fourth_derivatives 
) const

Compute the value and the first and second derivatives of each Raviart- Thomas polynomial at unit_point.

The size of the vectors must either be zero or equal n(). In the first case, the function will not compute these values.

If you need values or derivatives of all tensor product polynomials then use this function, rather than using any of the compute_value, compute_grad or compute_grad_grad functions, see below, in a loop over all tensor product polynomials.

template<int dim>
unsigned int PolynomialsRaviartThomas< dim >::n ( ) const
inline

Return the number of Raviart-Thomas polynomials.

Definition at line 139 of file polynomials_raviart_thomas.h.

template<int dim>
unsigned int PolynomialsRaviartThomas< dim >::degree ( ) const
inline

Return the degree of the Raviart-Thomas space, which is one less than the highest polynomial degree.

Definition at line 148 of file polynomials_raviart_thomas.h.

template<int dim>
std::string PolynomialsRaviartThomas< dim >::name ( ) const
inline

Return the name of the space, which is RaviartThomas.

Definition at line 157 of file polynomials_raviart_thomas.h.

template<int dim>
unsigned int PolynomialsRaviartThomas< dim >::compute_n_pols ( unsigned int  degree)
static

Return the number of polynomials in the space RT(degree) without requiring to build an object of PolynomialsRaviartThomas. This is required by the FiniteElement classes.

std::vector< std::vector< Polynomials::Polynomial< double > > > PolynomialsRaviartThomas< dim >::create_polynomials ( const unsigned int  k)
staticprivate

A static member function that creates the polynomial space we use to initialize the polynomial_space member variable.
