Hello all, I am using deal.ii along with PetSc and P4est to solve a 3D solid mechanics problem.
I am using the GridGenerator::hyper_rectangle function to create a rectangular grid with 1000 X 500 X 1 (0.5 million) elements. My question is: - since the coarsest mesh contains 0.5 million elements, does that mean all the processors have 0.5 million elements? (I think the answer is yes, I read that the deal.ii (p4est) stores the coarsest mesh on all processors.) I need a mesh (overall) which should be rectangular and should have 1000 X 500 X 1 elements. Note: It should only have 1 element in the z-direction. Is there any way such that I can have this mesh by not replicating the whole mesh on all processors as it takes a lot of memory. I thought of making a 2D mesh and then refining it and then extruding it using extrude::triangulation, but extrude triangulation does not work on refined meshes. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks again. -- The deal.II project is located at http://www.dealii.org/ For mailing list/forum options, see https://groups.google.com/d/forum/dealii?hl=en --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "deal.II User Group" group.
