chrono::fea::ChNodeFEAxyzP Class Reference

Description

Class for a generic finite element node in 3D space, with scalar field P.

This can be used for typical Poisson-type problems (ex. thermal, if the scalar field is temperature T, or electrostatics if the scalar field is electric potential V)

◆ ArchiveIN()

void chrono::fea::ChNodeFEAxyzP::ArchiveIN ( ChArchiveIn marchive)
overridevirtual

Method to allow de-serialization of transient data from archives.

Method to allow de serialization of transient data from archives.

Reimplemented from chrono::ChNodeBase.

◆ GetFixed()

virtual bool chrono::fea::ChNodeFEAxyzP::GetFixed ( )
inlineoverridevirtual

Get the 'fixed' state of the node.

If true, its current field value is not changed by solver.

Implements chrono::fea::ChNodeFEAbase.

◆ GetMass()

double chrono::fea::ChNodeFEAxyzP::GetMass ( )
inline

Get mass of the node.

Not meaningful except for transients. Meaning of 'mass' changes depending on the problem type.

◆ SetFixed()

virtual void chrono::fea::ChNodeFEAxyzP::SetFixed ( bool  mev)
inlineoverridevirtual

Set the 'fixed' state of the node.

If true, its current field value is not changed by solver.

Implements chrono::fea::ChNodeFEAbase.

◆ SetMass()

void chrono::fea::ChNodeFEAxyzP::SetMass ( double  mm)
inline

Set mass of the node.

Not meaningful except for transients. Meaning of 'mass' changes depending on the problem type.

◆ VariablesFbIncrementMq()

void chrono::fea::ChNodeFEAxyzP::VariablesFbIncrementMq ( )
overridevirtual

Adds M*q (masses multiplied current 'qb') to Fb, ex.

if qb is initialized with v_old using VariablesQbLoadSpeed, this method can be used in timestepping schemes that do: M*v_new = M*v_old + forces*dt

Reimplemented from chrono::ChNodeBase.

◆ VariablesQbIncrementPosition()

void chrono::fea::ChNodeFEAxyzP::VariablesQbIncrementPosition ( double  step)
overridevirtual

Increment node positions by the 'qb' part of the ChVariables, multiplied by a 'step' factor.

pos+=qb*step If qb is a speed, this behaves like a single step of 1-st order numerical integration (Eulero integration).

Reimplemented from chrono::ChNodeBase.

◆ VariablesQbSetSpeed()

void chrono::fea::ChNodeFEAxyzP::VariablesQbSetSpeed ( double  step = 0)
overridevirtual

Fetches the item speed (ex.

linear velocity, in xyz nodes) from the 'qb' part of the ChVariables and sets it as the current item speed. If 'step' is not 0, also should compute the approximate acceleration of the item using backward differences, that is accel=(new_speed-old_speed)/step. Mostly used after the solver provided the solution in ChVariables.

Reimplemented from chrono::ChNodeBase.
