- variableArray of coupled variables
C++ Type:std::vector
Description:Array of coupled variables
PolycrystalVoronoi
The PolycrystalVoronoi UserObject either generates a set of random points or reads a set of grain centroids from a file and performs a Voronoi tesslation to produce a grain structure. The number of grains may be set by the user but a suitable number must be chosen that is supported by the mesh resolution and grain boundary width. Once the grain structure has been generated, a coloring algorithm is used to assign order parameters to grains so that a reduced number of order parameters may be used. Typical numbers are given here:
Dimension | Recommended OPs |
---|---|
2D | 8 |
3D | 25 |
See Polycrystal Initial Conditions for more information.
