Detailed Description
approximate nonlinear FEM elements with simplices
$Date$ $Revision$
This class approximates nonlinear FEM elements with linear simplices.
Warning: This class is temporary and will go away at some point after ParaView 1.4.0.
This filter rifles through all the cells in an input vtkDataSet. It tesselates each cell and uses the vtkStreamingTessellator and vtkDataSetEdgeSubdivisionCriterion classes to generate simplices that approximate the nonlinear mesh using some approximation metric (encoded in the particular vtkDataSetEdgeSubdivisionCriterion::EvaluateEdge implementation). The simplices are placed into the filter's output vtkDataSet object by the callback routines AddATetrahedron, AddATriangle, and AddALine, which are registered with the triangulator.
The output mesh will have geometry and any fields specified as attributes in the input mesh's point data. The attribute's copy flags are honored, except for normals.
- Internals:
- The filter's main member function is RequestData(). This function first calls SetupOutput() which allocates arrays and some temporary variables for the primitive callbacks (OutputTriangle and OutputLine which are called by AddATriangle and AddALine, respectively). Each cell is given an initial tesselation, which results in one or more calls to OutputTetrahedron, OutputTriangle or OutputLine to add elements to the OutputMesh. Finally, Teardown() is called to free the filter's working space.

| static int vtkTessellatorFilter::IsTypeOf | ( | const char * | name | ) | [static] |
Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Create an object with Debug turned off, modified time initialized to zero, and reference counting on.

Return this object's modified time.

| virtual void vtkTessellatorFilter::SetOutputDimension | ( | int | ) | [virtual] |
Set the dimension of the output tessellation. Cells in dimensions higher than the given value will have their boundaries of dimension OutputDimension tessellated. For example, if OutputDimension is 2, a hexahedron's quadrilateral faces would be tessellated rather than its interior.
| virtual int vtkTessellatorFilter::GetOutputDimension | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Set the dimension of the output tessellation. Cells in dimensions higher than the given value will have their boundaries of dimension OutputDimension tessellated. For example, if OutputDimension is 2, a hexahedron's quadrilateral faces would be tessellated rather than its interior.
| int vtkTessellatorFilter::GetOutputDimension | ( | ) | const [inline] |
Set the dimension of the output tessellation. Cells in dimensions higher than the given value will have their boundaries of dimension OutputDimension tessellated. For example, if OutputDimension is 2, a hexahedron's quadrilateral faces would be tessellated rather than its interior.

| virtual int vtkTessellatorFilter::GetMergePoints | ( | ) | [virtual] |
The adaptive tessellation will output vertices that are not shared among cells, even where they should be. This can be corrected to some extents with a vtkMergeFilter. By default, the filter is off and vertices will not be shared.

The adaptive tessellation will output vertices that are not shared among cells, even where they should be. This can be corrected to some extents with a vtkMergeFilter. By default, the filter is off and vertices will not be shared.
| virtual void vtkTessellatorFilter::MergePointsOn | ( | ) | [virtual] |
The adaptive tessellation will output vertices that are not shared among cells, even where they should be. This can be corrected to some extents with a vtkMergeFilter. By default, the filter is off and vertices will not be shared.

| virtual int vtkTessellatorFilter::FillInputPortInformation | ( | int | port, |
| vtkInformation * | info | ||
