pygeon.discretizations.fem.vec_h1 module

Module for the discretizations of the vector H1 space.

class pygeon.discretizations.fem.vec_h1.VecLagrange1(keyword='unitary_data')

Bases: VecDiscretization

Vector Lagrange finite element discretization for H1 space.

This class represents a finite element discretization for the H1 space using vector Lagrange elements. It provides methods for assembling various matrices and operators, such as the mass matrix, divergence matrix, symmetric gradient matrix, and more.

Convention for the ordering is first all the x, then all the y, and (if dim = 3) all the z.

The stress tensor and strain tensor are represented as vectors unrolled row-wise. In 2D, the stress tensor has a length of 4, and in 3D, it has a length of 9.

We are considering the following structure of the stress tensor in 2D:

\[\begin{split}\sigma = \begin{bmatrix} \sigma_{xx} & \sigma_{xy} \\ \sigma_{yx} & \sigma_{yy} \end{bmatrix}\end{split}\]

which is represented in the code unrolled row-wise as a vector of length 4:

\[\sigma = [\sigma_{xx}, \sigma_{xy}, \sigma_{yx}, \sigma_{yy}]\]

While in 3D the stress tensor can be written as:

\[\begin{split}\sigma = \begin{bmatrix} \sigma_{xx} & \sigma_{xy} & \sigma_{xz} \\ \sigma_{yx} & \sigma_{yy} & \sigma_{yz} \\ \sigma_{zx} & \sigma_{zy} & \sigma_{zz} \end{bmatrix}\end{split}\]

where its vectorized structure of length 9 is given by:

\[\sigma = [\sigma_{xx}, \sigma_{xy}, \sigma_{xz}, \sigma_{yx}, \sigma_{yy}, \sigma_{yz}, \sigma_{zx}, \sigma_{zy}, \sigma_{zz}]\]

The strain tensor follows the same approach.
