New question #94542 on DOLFIN: https://answers.launchpad.net/dolfin/+question/94542
I am interested in a finite element formulation using two variables, which are sought in finite element spaces with different meshes. Here is code for a contrived example: # coarse mesh space mesh = UnitSquare(1,1) V = FunctionSpace(mesh, 'CG', 1) # fine mesh space mesh.refine() W = FunctionSpace(mesh, 'CG', 1) # product space X = V + W I would have thought that this resulted in a coarse mesh space (dimension 4) for the V variable and a finer mesh space (dimension 9) for the W variable, so that the space X would have dimension 13. However this is not what happens, as can be seen by printing the results: -------> print(V) <Function space of dimension 4 (<CG1 on a <triangle of degree 1>>)> -------> print(W) <Function space of dimension 9 (<CG1 on a <triangle of degree 1>>)> -------> print(X) <Function space of dimension 18 (<Mixed element: (<CG1 on a <triangle of degree 1>>, <CG1 on a <triangle of degree 1>>)>)> Is it possible to accomplish what I am trying to do: have mixed elements with different meshes for the different components? -- You received this question notification because you are a member of DOLFIN Team, which is an answer contact for DOLFIN. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dolfin Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dolfin More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
