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;

Definition at line 94 of file itkFEMLoadBCMFC.h.

vnl_vector<Element::Float> itk::fem::LoadBCMFC::rhs

Right hand side of the linear equation that defines the constraints. It is a vector so that implementation of BC on isotropic elements is easy. Which value is applied to the master force vector is defined by optional dim parameter (defaults to 0) in AssembleF function in solver. Definition at line 102 of file itkFEMLoadBCMFC.h.
