Discretization context

The discretization context

The discretization context is used for parameters related to the discretization of the problem.

Attributes:

• type - The type of discretization to use (lagrange, spectral, splines, lrsplines or triangular)

Example:

  <discretization type="lrsplines">
    <nGauss>3 4</nGauss>
  </discretization>

nGauss

---

Use this to set the number of Gaussian quadrature points to use.

Attributes: None

Value: The number of quadrature points to use over each element (or knot-span) in each parametric direction.

One or two (space-separated) values can be specified. If specified, the second value applies to the norm integration and the first value applies to the tangent integration (and associated residual) only.

Example:

<nGauss>3 4</nGauss>
