marchingCells Class Reference

Marches cells from given seed patches, faceZones or the boundary faces of cellZones, towards the interior of the mesh, with a given step at a time. Used in topology optimisation, to gradually activate the design variables, in an attempt to prevent the optimiser from acting too agressively in the first optimisation cycles. Use meshWave to do the marching. More...

Detailed Description

Marches cells from given seed patches, faceZones or the boundary faces of cellZones, towards the interior of the mesh, with a given step at a time. Used in topology optimisation, to gradually activate the design variables, in an attempt to prevent the optimiser from acting too agressively in the first optimisation cycles. Use meshWave to do the marching.
