Detailed Description

Abstract base class for the transition functions used by the domain::CoordinateMaps::TimeDependent::Shape map.

Details

This base class defines the required methods of a transition function used by the shape map. Different domains require the shape map to fall off towards the boundary in different ways. This behavior is controlled by the transition function. It is also needed to find the inverse of the shape map. Since the shape map preserves angles, the problem of finding its inverse reduces to the 1-dimensional problem of finding the original radius from the mapped radius. The mapped radius \(\tilde{r}\) is related to the original \(r\) radius by:

\begin{equation}\label{eq:shape_map_radius} \tilde{r} = r (1 - f(r,\theta,\phi) \sum_{lm} \lambda_{lm}(t)Y_{lm}(\theta, \phi)), \end{equation}

where \(f(r,\theta,\phi)\) is the transition function. Depending on the format of the transition function, it should be possible to analytically derive this map's inverse because it preserves angles and shifts only the radius of each point. Otherwise the inverse has to be computed numerically.

The transition function must also be able to compute the gradient and the value of the function divided by the radius. Care must be taken that this does not divide by zero.

All member functions with the exception of original_radius_over_radius exist as overloads for types double and DataVector so that they work with the templated shape map methods calling them. To avoid code duplication these can be forwarded to templated implementation methods held by the derived classes only.

For an example, see SphereTransition.

Design Decisions:

It was decided to make the ShapeMapTransitionFunction an abstract base class with overloads for types double and DataVector corresponding to the template parameter T of the shape map's methods. The shape map holds a unique_ptr to this abstract class using a common dynamic dispatch design pattern. This approach avoids templating the shape map all together.

An alternative approach would be to directly template the transition functions onto the shape map so that no abstract base class is necessary. These approaches can also be combined by making the transition function an abstract base class but also templating it onto the shape map. In this way the shape map does not need to hold a unique_ptr but can hold the transition function directly as a member.

virtual std::optional< double > domain::CoordinateMaps::ShapeMapTransitionFunctions::ShapeMapTransitionFunction::original_radius_over_radius ( const std::array< double, 3 > &  target_coords,

) const
pure virtual

Given the mapped coordinates target_coords and the corresponding spherical harmonic expansion \(\sum_{lm} \lambda_{lm}(t)Y_{lm}\), distorted_radius, this method evaluates the original radius from the mapped radius by inverting the domain::CoordinateMaps::TimeDependent::Shape map. It also divides by the mapped radius to simplify calculations in the shape map.
