Member Function Documentation

virtual void itk::fem::Element3DC0LinearTetrahedron::GetIntegrationPointAndWeight (  unsigned int    i, VectorType &    pt, Float &    w, unsigned int    order )  const [virtual]

Computes the vector representing the i-th integration point in local element coordinates for a Gauss-Legendre numerical integration over the element domain. It also computes the weight at this integration point. Optionally you can also specify the order of integration. If order is not specified, it defaults to 0, which means that the derived element should use the optimal integration order specific for that element. Note: This function must be implemented in derived element classes, and is expected to provide valid integration points for up to gaussMaxOrder-th order of integration. Parameters: i  Integration point number 0<=i<GetNumberOfIntegrationPoints() pt  Reference to object of class VectorType that will hold the integration point. w  Reference to Float variable that will hold the weight. order  Order of integration. See also: GetNumberOfIntegrationPoints() Implements itk::fem::Element.

virtual bool itk::fem::Element3DC0LinearTetrahedron::GetLocalFromGlobalCoordinates (  const VectorType &    globalPt, VectorType &    localPt )  const [virtual]

Transforms the given global element coordinates into local. Returns false if the point is outside. Parameters: globalPt  Reference to vector containing a point in global (world) coordinates. localPt  Reference to the vector that will store the local coordinate. Implements itk::fem::Element.

virtual unsigned int itk::fem::Element3DC0LinearTetrahedron::GetNumberOfIntegrationPoints (  unsigned int    order )  const [virtual]

Returns total number of integration points, for given order of Gauss-Legendre numerical integration rule. Note: This function must be implemented in derived element classes, and is expected to provide valid number of integration points for up to gaussMaxOrder-th order of integration. See also: GetIntegrationPointAndWeight() Implements itk::fem::Element.

virtual void itk::fem::Element3DC0LinearTetrahedron::ShapeFunctionDerivatives (  const VectorType &    pt, MatrixType &    shapeD )  const [virtual]

Compute the matrix of values of the shape functions derivatives with respect to local coordinates of this element at a given point. A column in this matrix corresponds to a specific shape function, while a row corresponds to different local coordinates. E.g. element at row 2, col 3 contains derivative of shape function number 3 with respect to local coordinate number 2. Parameters: pt  Point in local element coordinates. shapeD  Reference to a matrix object, which will be filled with values of shape function derivatives. See also: ShapeFunctionGlobalDerivatives Implements itk::fem::Element.

virtual VectorType itk::fem::Element3DC0LinearTetrahedron::ShapeFunctions (  const VectorType &    pt )  const [virtual]

Returns a vector containing the values of all shape functions that define the geometry of a finite element at a given local point within an element. Parameters: pt  Point in local element coordinates. Implements itk::fem::Element.
