Parameters
coorchfloat, array-like, shape

contains the coordinate of the th characteristic point, for ; while contains the corresponding coordinate.

linedint, array-like, shape

The description of the lines that define the boundary domain. The line , for , is defined as follows:

The number of points on the line, including two end points.

The first end point of the line. If , the coordinates of the first end point are those stored in .

The second end point of the line. If , the coordinates of the second end point are those stored in .

This defines the type of line segment connecting the end points. Additional information is conveyed by the numerical value of as follows:

  1. , the line is described in with as the index. In this case, the line must be described in the trigonometric (anticlockwise) direction;

  2. , the line is a straight line;

  3. if , say (), then the line is a polygonal arc joining the end points and interior points specified in . In this case the line contains the points whose coordinates are stored in , where , , and .

crusfloat, array-like, shape

The coordinates of the intermediate points for polygonal arc lines. For a line defined as a polygonal arc (i.e., ), if , , for , must contain the coordinate of the consecutive intermediate points for this line. Similarly , for , must contain the corresponding coordinate.

ratefloat, array-like, shape

nlcompint, array-like, shape

is the number of line segments in component of the contour. The line of component runs in the direction to if , and in the opposite direction otherwise; for .

lcompint, array-like, shape

must contain the list of line numbers for the each component of the boundary. Specifically, the line numbers for the th component of the boundary, for , must be in elements to of , where and .

nvmaxint

itraceint

The level of trace information required from dim2_gen_boundary.

No output is generated.

Output from the boundary mesh generator is printed. This output contains the input information of each line and each connected component of the boundary.

An analysis of the output boundary mesh is printed on the file object associated with the advisory I/O unit (see FileObjManager). This analysis includes the orientation (clockwise or anticlockwise) of each connected component of the boundary. This information could be of interest to you, especially if an interior meshing is carried out using the output of this function, calling either dim2_gen_inc(), dim2_gen_delaunay() or dim2_gen_front().

The output is similar to that produced when , but the coordinates of the generated vertices on the boundary are also output.

You are advised to set , unless you are experienced with finite element mesh generation.

Notes

Given a closed connected subdomain of , whose boundary is divided by characteristic points into distinct line segments, dim2_gen_boundary generates a boundary mesh on . Each line segment may be a straight line, a curve defined by the equation , or a polygonal curve defined by a set of given boundary mesh points.

This function is primarily designed for use with either dim2_gen_inc() (a simple incremental method) or dim2_gen_delaunay() (Delaunay–Voronoi method) or dim2_gen_front() (Advancing Front method) to triangulate the interior of the domain . For more details about the boundary and interior mesh generation, consult the D06 Introduction as well as George and Borouchaki (1998).

This function is derived from material in the MODULEF package from INRIA (Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et Automatique).
