fem.Discretization
fem.Discretization()A discretized scene: what studies, the optimiser, the viewer and selections need.
Structural, like :class:~cadjoint.studies.selection.BoundaryMesh which it extends: a family implements these on its own class.

| family | "hex", "tet" or "cut" — for reports, never for branching. |
Methods
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| face_patch | (nodes, faces) an area-integrated condition applies to; raises if it spans no face. |
| moved | The placement of this topology under field (possibly traced): see the module note. |
| node_patch | Node indices a node-valued condition applies to. |
| quality | Per-element metrics, {} where there are no elements to grade. |
| traction_work | ∫ t · u over the faces a traction selection spans, at positions. |
| unresolvable | The first condition that resolves to nothing here, described; None if all resolve. |
face_patch
fem.Discretization.face_patch(selection)(nodes, faces) an area-integrated condition applies to; raises if it spans no face.
moved
fem.Discretization.moved(field, *, smooth_passes=0, design=None)The placement of this topology under field (possibly traced): see the module note.
node_patch
fem.Discretization.node_patch(selection)Node indices a node-valued condition applies to.
quality
fem.Discretization.quality()Per-element metrics, {} where there are no elements to grade.
traction_work
fem.Discretization.traction_work(positions, displacement, selection, vector)∫ t · u over the faces a traction selection spans, at positions.
unresolvable
fem.Discretization.unresolvable(bcs)The first condition that resolves to nothing here, described; None if all resolve.
