spaces.manager Module

Provides the data structure for the degrees of freedom manager.

class pysofe.spaces.manager.DOFManager(mesh, element)

Connects the finite element mesh and reference element through the assignment of degrees of freedom to individual elements.

Parameters:

• mesh (pysofe.meshes.Mesh) – The mesh for which to provide connectivity information
• element (pysofe.elements.base.Element) – The reference element

n_dof

The total number of degrees of freedom

get_dof_map(d, mask=None)

Returns the degrees of freedom mapping that connects the global mesh entities of topological dimension d to the local reference element.

Parameters:

• d (int) – The topological dimension of the entities for which to return the degrees of freedom mapping
• mask (array_like) – An 1d array marking certain entities of which to get the dof map

extract_dofs(d, mask=None)

Returns a boolean array specifying the degrees of freedom associated with the mesh entities of topological dimension d.

Parameters:

• d (int) – The topological dimension of the mesh entities
• mask (array_like) – An 1d array marking certain entities of which to get the dofs
