DMMoabPToRMapping#
Compute the mapping from the physical coordinate system for a given element to the canonical reference element.
Synopsis#
#include "petscdt.h" 
#include "petscdmmoab.h"   
PetscErrorCode DMMoabPToRMapping(const PetscInt dim, const PetscInt nverts, const PetscReal *coordinates, const PetscReal *xphy, PetscReal *natparam, PetscReal *phi)
Input Parameters#
- dim - the element dimension (1=EDGE, 2=QUAD/TRI, 3=HEX/TET) 
- nverts - the number of vertices in the physical element 
- coordinates - the coordinates of vertices in the physical element 
- xphy - the coordinates of physical point for which natural coordinates (in reference frame) are sought 
Output Parameters#
- natparam - the natural coordinates (in reference frame) corresponding to xphy 
- phi - the basis functions evaluated at the natural coordinates (natparam) 
Notes#
In addition to finding the inverse mapping evaluation through Newton iteration, the basis function at the parametric point is also evaluated optionally.
