Netgen mesh library : nglib
摘要Abstract:本文主是对Netgen的库nglib的用法进行介绍。主要参考资料是Netgen用户指南。最后给出一个具体程序实例。
关键字Key Words:Netgen, nglib, Mesh
一、引言 Introduction
Netgen网格生成库nglib是以C++源程序形式提供,可以编译为Unix/Linux或Windows上的库文件。程序开发使用的接口文件是nglib.h。
二、头文件 The Header File
接口文件中包含了一些类型定义和函数调用,所有的Netgen类型和函数都带有前缀Ng。类型和函数首字母大写,所有常量都是大写。
三、类型和常量 Types and Constants
/// Maximum allowed number of nodes per volume element
#define NG_VOLUME_ELEMENT_MAXPOINTS 10
/// Maximum allowed number of nodes per surface element
#define NG_SURFACE_ELEMENT_MAXPOINTS 8
// *** Data-types for accessing Netgen functionality ***
/// Data type for NETGEN mesh
typedef void * Ng_Mesh;
/// Data type for NETGEN CSG geometry
typedef void * Ng_CSG_Geometry;
/// Data type for NETGEN 2D geometry
typedef void * Ng_Geometry_2D;
/// Data type for NETGEN STL geometry
typedef void * Ng_STL_Geometry;
// *** Special Enum types used within Netgen ***********
/// Currently implemented surface element types
enum Ng_Surface_Element_Type
{ NG_TRIG = 1 , NG_QUAD = 2 , NG_TRIG6 = 3 , NG_QUAD6 = 4 , NG_QUAD8 = 5 };
/// Currently implemented volume element types
enum Ng_Volume_Element_Type
{ NG_TET = 1 , NG_PYRAMID = 2 , NG_PRISM = 3 , NG_TET10 = 4 };
/// Values returned by Netgen functions
enum Ng_Result
{
NG_ERROR = - 1 ,
NG_OK = 0 ,
NG_SURFACE_INPUT_ERROR = 1 ,
NG_VOLUME_FAILURE = 2 ,
NG_STL_INPUT_ERROR = 3 ,
NG_SURFACE_FAILURE = 4 ,
NG_FILE_NOT_FOUND = 5
};
// *** Classes required for use within Netgen **********
/// Netgen Meshing Parameters class
class Ng_Meshing_Parameters
{
public :
int uselocalh; // !< Switch to enable / disable usage of local mesh size modifiers
double maxh; // !< Maximum global mesh size allowed
double minh; // !< Minimum global mesh size allowed
double fineness; // !< Mesh density: 01 (0 => coarse; 1 => fine)
double grading; // !< Mesh grading: 01 (0 => uniform mesh; 1 => aggressive local grading)
double elementsperedge; // !< Number of elements to generate per edge of the geometry
double elementspercurve; // !< Elements to generate per curvature radius
Ng_Mesh表示Netgen网格的数据结构。Ng_STL_Geometry表示STL几何。可以通过Ng_Meshing_Parameters来指定生成网格时的参数。Netgen函数的返回值类型是Ng_Result。
四、初始化 Initialization
分别调用如下两个函数对netgen初始化和析构:
*/
DLL_HEADER void Ng_Init ();
/* ! \brief Exit the Netgen meshing kernel in a clean manner
*/
DLL_HEADER void Ng_Exit ();
五、网格的访问 Mesh access
Netgen网格可以通过如下函数来处理。一个网格包含nodes, surface elements和volume elements。都是从1开始计数的。
Ng_Mesh * Ng_NewMesh ();
void Ng_DeleteMesh (Ng_Mesh * mesh);
// feeds points, surface elements and volume elements to the mesh
void Ng_AddPoint (Ng_Mesh * mesh, double * x);
void Ng_AddSurfaceElement (Ng_Mesh * mesh, Ng_Surface_Element_Type et, int * pi);
void Ng_AddVolumeElement (Ng_Mesh * mesh, Ng_Volume_Element_Type et, int * pi);
// ask for number of points, surface and volume elements
int Ng_GetNP (Ng_Mesh * mesh);
int Ng_GetNSE (Ng_Mesh * mesh);
int Ng_GetNE (Ng_Mesh * mesh);
// return point coordinates
void Ng_GetPoint (Ng_Mesh * mesh, int num, double * x);
// return surface and volume element in pi
Ng_Surface_Element_Type
Ng_GetSurfaceElement (Ng_Mesh * mesh, int num, int * pi);
Ng_Volume_Element_Type
Ng_GetVolumeElement (Ng_Mesh * mesh, int num, int * pi);
更多信息请参考其头文件nglib.h。
在生成网格时,用户可以指定网格大小及一些约束。函数Ng_GenerateVolumeMesh从曲面生成网格。
*/
DLL_HEADER void Ng_RestrictMeshSizeGlobal (Ng_Mesh * mesh, double h);
/* ! \brief Locally restrict the mesh element size at the given point
*/
DLL_HEADER void Ng_RestrictMeshSizePoint (Ng_Mesh * mesh, double * p, double h);
/* ! \brief Locally restrict the mesh element size within a specified box
*/
DLL_HEADER void Ng_RestrictMeshSizeBox (Ng_Mesh * mesh, double * pmin, double * pmax, double h);
/* ! \brief Create a 3D Volume Mesh given a Surface Mesh
*/
DLL_HEADER Ng_Result Ng_GenerateVolumeMesh (Ng_Mesh * mesh, Ng_Meshing_Parameters * mp);
六、STL几何 STL Geometry
STL几何数据可以从STL文件(ASCII或二进制)读取,也可以由一个个的三角形组装而成。
DLL_HEADER Ng_STL_Geometry * Ng_STL_LoadGeometry ( const char * filename, int binary = 0 );
// generate new STL Geometry
DLL_HEADER Ng_STL_Geometry * Ng_STL_NewGeometry ();
// fills STL Geometry
// positive orientation
// normal vector may be null-pointer
DLL_HEADER void Ng_STL_AddTriangle (Ng_STL_Geometry * geom,
double * p1, double * p2, double * p3,
double * nv = NULL);
// add (optional) edges :
DLL_HEADER void Ng_STL_AddEdge (Ng_STL_Geometry * geom,
double * p1, double * p2);
// after adding triangles (and edges) initialize
DLL_HEADER Ng_Result Ng_STL_InitSTLGeometry (Ng_STL_Geometry * geom);
// automatically generates edges:
DLL_HEADER Ng_Result Ng_STL_MakeEdges (Ng_STL_Geometry * geom,
Ng_Mesh * mesh,
Ng_Meshing_Parameters * mp);
// generates mesh, empty mesh must be already created.
DLL_HEADER Ng_Result Ng_STL_GenerateSurfaceMesh (Ng_STL_Geometry * geom,
Ng_Mesh * mesh,
Ng_Meshing_Parameters * mp);
七、示例程序 Example Code
在Netgen的安装目录下的nglib文件夹中有两个示例程序ng_vol.cpp和ng_stl.cpp。其中ng_vol.cpp程序开始时从cube.surf文件读入点坐标和曲面的三角形,生成的volumne mesh输出到文件:cuve.vol。经过测试,程序可以运行,修改过的代码如下所示:
#include < iostream >
#include < fstream >
namespace nglib {
#include < nglib.h >
}
#pragma comment(lib, " nglib.lib " )
int main( int argc, char * argv[])
{
std::cout << " Netgen Testing " << std::endl;
int i = 0 ;
int np = 0 ;
int nse = 0 ;
int ne = 0 ;
int trig[ 3 ] = { 0 };
int tet[ 4 ] = { 0 };
double point[ 3 ] = { 0.0 };
std:: string strMeshFile = (argc > 1 ) ? argv[ 1 ]: " cube.surf " ;
std::ifstream meshFile(strMeshFile.c_str());
// initialize the Netgen library.
nglib::Ng_Init();
// Generate new mesh structure.
nglib::Ng_Mesh * mesh = nglib::Ng_NewMesh();
// Read surface mesh from file.
// feed points to the mesh.
meshFile >> np;
std::cout << " Reading " << np << " points " << std::endl;
for ( int i = 0 ; i < np; ++ i)
{
meshFile >> point[ 0 ] >> point[ 1 ] >> point[ 2 ];
nglib::Ng_AddPoint(mesh, point);
}
std::cout << " done. " << std::endl;
// feed surface elements to the mesh.
meshFile >> nse;
std::cout << " Reading " << nse << " faces " << std::endl;
for ( int i = 0 ; i < nse; ++ i)
{
meshFile >> trig[ 0 ] >> trig[ 1 ] >> trig[ 2 ];
nglib::Ng_AddSurfaceElement(mesh, nglib::NG_TRIG, trig);
}
std::cout << " done. " << std::endl;
// generate volume mesh.
nglib::Ng_Meshing_Parameters mp;
mp.maxh = 1e6;
mp.fineness = 1 ;
mp.second_order = 0 ;
std::cout << " start meshing " << std::endl;
nglib::Ng_GenerateVolumeMesh(mesh, & mp);
std::cout << " meshing done. " << std::endl;
// volume mesh output.
np = nglib::Ng_GetNP(mesh);
std::cout << " Points: " << np << std::endl;
for ( int i = 1 ; i <= np; ++ i)
{
nglib::Ng_GetPoint(mesh, i, point);
std::cout << i << " : " << point[ 0 ] << " , " << point[ 1 ] << " , " << point[ 2 ] << std::endl;
}
ne = nglib::Ng_GetNE(mesh);
std::cout << " Elements: " << ne << std::endl;
for ( int i = 1 ; i <= ne; ++ i)
{
nglib::Ng_GetVolumeElement(mesh, i, tet);
std::cout << i << " : " << tet[ 0 ] << " , " << tet[ 1 ] << " , " << tet[ 2 ] << " , " << tet[ 3 ] << std::endl;
}
// Save mesh.
nglib::Ng_SaveMesh(mesh, " test.vol " );
// deconstruct Netgen library.
nglib::Ng_Exit();
return 0 ;
