## Detailed Description

A SegmentId labels a segment of the interval [-1,1] and is used to identify the bounds of an Element in a Block in each dimension.

In $d$ dimensions, $d$ SegmentIds are used to identify an Element. In each dimension, a segment spans the subinterval $[-1 + 2 \frac{i}{N}, -1 + 2 \frac{i+1}{N}]$ of the logical coordinates of a Block, where $i$= index and $N = 2^L$ where $L$ = refinement_level.

SegmentIds

In the figure, The index of segments increase from the lower side to the upper side in each dimension of a Block, while the refinement level increases as the segments are subdivided. For example, let the segment labeled self be on refinement level $L$, with index $i$. Its parent segment is on refinement level $L-1$ with index $\frac{i-1}{2}$. The children of self are on refinement level $L+1$, and have index $2i$ and $2i+1$ for the lower and upper child respectively. Also labeled on the figure are the sibling and abutting nibling (child of sibling) of self. These relationships between segments are important for h-refinement, since in each dimension an Element can be flagged to split into its two children segments, or join with its sibling segment to form its parent segment. As refinement levels of neighboring elements are kept within one, in the direction of its sibling, a segment can only abut its sibling or abutting nibling, while on the opposite side, it can abut a segment on its level, the next-lower, or the next-higher level.
