Detailed Description

Generic linear multi freedom displacement constraint in global coordinate system.

These constraints are implemented using the Lagrange multiplier method. We treat displacement constraints (or essential boundary conditions, which are exactly the same but with less functionality) as a special kind of load on the system.

How to store data in a LoadBCMFC object... Suppose you want to impose the following constraint to the system:

0.5*u1x + 2.1*u5y = 10.0

u1x is the first DOF in the element with global number 1, and u5y is the second DOF in an element with GN=5.

... then use the following lines of code itk::LoadBCMFC m; m.lhs.push_back( LoadBCMFC::MFCTerm( elements.Find(1), 0, 0.5 ) ); m.lhs.push_back( LoadBCMFC::MFCTerm( elements.Find(5), 1, 2.1 ) ); m.rhs=10.0;

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

itk::fem::LoadBCMFC::LoadBCMFC (  )  [inline]

Default constructor

Definition at line 103 of file itkFEMLoadBCMFC.h.

itk::fem::LoadBCMFC::LoadBCMFC ( Element::ConstPointer  element,
int  dof,
vnl_vector< Element::Float val 
)

With this constructor, we can easy fix the global displacement dof given by node to a value val.

Parameters:
element Pointer to an element, which holds a displacements that needs to be fixed.
dof Local DOF number in an element.
val The fixed value of a DOF.

Member Function Documentation

virtual int itk::fem::LoadBCMFC::ClassID (  )  const [inline, virtual]

Virtual function to access the class ID

Implements itk::fem::FEMLightObject.

Definition at line 54 of file itkFEMLoadBCMFC.h.

virtual Baseclass::Pointer itk::fem::LoadBCMFC::Clone (  )  const [virtual]

Create a new object from the existing one

Implements itk::fem::FEMLightObject.

static FEMLightObject::Pointer itk::fem::FEMLightObject::CreateFromStream ( std::istream &  f,
void *  info 
) [static, inherited]

Read object of any derived type from stream.

This static function creates an object of a class, which is derived from FEMLightObject. The class of object is first determined from the stream, then the object of that class is constructed using the FEMObjectFactory. Finally the data for this object is read from the stream, by calling the Read() member function.

virtual Solution::ConstPointer itk::fem::Load::GetSolution (  )  [inline, virtual, inherited]

Sets the pointer to solution vector. This function is automatically called by the Solver class on every load object.

Some types of external Loads may need access to previous values of solution vector. If a derived class needs that, it should implement this function, and store the passed pointer accordingly. If the result vector is not required, the functionn should be left unimplemented, so that only the dummy implementation in base class is called.

Parameters:
ptr Pointer to the object of Solution class.

Reimplemented in itk::fem::FiniteDifferenceFunctionLoad< TMoving, TFixed >, itk::fem::ImageMetricLoad< TMoving, TFixed >, and itk::fem::LoadLandmark.

Definition at line 57 of file itkFEMLoadBase.h.

static Self::Pointer itk::fem::LoadBCMFC::New ( void   )  [inline, static]

Object creation in an itk compatible way

Definition at line 54 of file itkFEMLoadBCMFC.h.

virtual void itk::fem::LoadBCMFC::Read ( std::istream &  f,
void *  info 
) [virtual]

read a LoadBCMFC object from input stream.

Reimplemented from itk::fem::FEMLightObject.

virtual void itk::fem::Load::SetSolution ( Solution::ConstPointer   )  [inline, virtual, inherited]

Sets the pointer to solution vector. This function is automatically called by the Solver class on every load object.

Some types of external Loads may need access to previous values of solution vector. If a derived class needs that, it should implement this function, and store the passed pointer accordingly. If the result vector is not required, the functionn should be left unimplemented, so that only the dummy implementation in base class is called.

Parameters:
ptr Pointer to the object of Solution class.

Reimplemented in itk::fem::FiniteDifferenceFunctionLoad< TMoving, TFixed >, itk::fem::ImageMetricLoad< TMoving, TFixed >, and itk::fem::LoadLandmark.

Definition at line 56 of file itkFEMLoadBase.h.

static void itk::fem::FEMLightObject::SkipWhiteSpace ( std::istream &  f  )  [static, inherited]

Helper function that skips all the whitespace and comments in an input stream.

virtual void itk::fem::LoadBCMFC::Write ( std::ostream &  f  )  const [virtual]

write a LoadBCMFC object to the output stream.

Reimplemented from itk::fem::FEMLightObject.

const int itk::fem::LoadBCMFC::CLID [static]

Class ID for FEM object factory

Definition at line 54 of file itkFEMLoadBCMFC.h.

Global number of an object (ID of an object) In general the ID's are required to be unique only within a specific type of derived classes (Elements, Nodes, ...) If the GN is not required, it can be ignored. (normally you need the GN when writing or reading objects to/from stream.
