Classes for reading a macrogrid file in the dune macrogrid format (dgf)
General
The DGF format allows the simple description of macrogrids, which can be used to construct Dune grids independent of the underlying implementation. Due to the generality of the approach only a subset of the description language for each grid implementation is available through this interface.
Usage
We assume in the following that the type GridType is suitably defined, denoting a dune grid type in dimworld space dimension. A point in dimworld space is called a vector.
In general dgf files consists of one or more blocks, each starting with a keyword and ending with a line starting with a # symbol. In a block each full line is parsed from the beginning up to the first occupance of a % symbol, which can be used to include comments. Trailing whitespaces are ignored during line parsing. Also the parsing is not case sensitive.
Some example files are given below (Examples).
First line
Work in progress
- There should be a mechanism to fix the desired refinement edge for simplex grids. An automatic selection is performed using the longest edge, but it should be possible to turn off this automatic selection.
- A callback to the user between parsing the DGF file and the construction of the dune grid; here e.g. a post-processing of the vertex coordinates could be included.
Examples
In two space dimensions:
In three space dimensions:
Manual Grid Construction
A tessellation of the unit square into six simplex entities. Some boundary segments on the lower and right boundary are given their own id the remaining are given a default id.

Automatic tessellation using Triangle, with vertices are defined on a Cartesian grid with two additional vertices in the top right corner and one vertex outside the unit square.
All boundary are given a default id.

is added than the same simplex grid as for AlbertaGrid<2,2> would be constructed.
