discretize.tensor_cell.TensorCell#
- class discretize.tensor_cell.TensorCell(h, origin, index_unraveled, mesh_shape)[source]#
Representation of a cell in a TensorMesh.
- Parameters:
- h(
dim
)numpy.ndarray
Array with the cell widths along each direction. For a 2D mesh, it must have two elements (
hx
,hy
). For a 3D mesh it must have three elements (hx
,hy
,hz
).- origin(
dim
)numpy.ndarray
Array with the coordinates of the origin of the cell, i.e. the bottom-left-frontmost corner.
- index_unraveled(
dim
)tuple
Array with the unraveled indices of the cell in its parent mesh.
- mesh_shape(
dim
)tuple
Shape of the parent mesh.
- h(
Examples
Define a simple
discretize.TensorMesh
.>>> from discretize import TensorMesh >>> mesh = TensorMesh([5, 8, 10])
We can obtain a particular cell in the mesh by its index:
>>> cell = mesh[3] >>> cell TensorCell(h=[0.2 0.125 0.1 ], origin=[0.6 0. 0. ], index=3, mesh_shape=(5, 8, 10))
And then obtain information about it, like its
discretize.tensor_cell.TensorCell.origin
:>>> cell.origin array([0.6, 0. , 0. ])
Or its
discretize.tensor_cell.TensorCell.bounds
:>>> cell.bounds array([0.6 , 0.8 , 0. , 0.125, 0. , 0.1 ])
We can also get its neighboring cells:
>>> neighbours = cell.get_neighbors(mesh) >>> for neighbor in neighbours: ... print(neighbor.center) [0.5 0.0625 0.05 ] [0.9 0.0625 0.05 ] [0.7 0.1875 0.05 ] [0.7 0.0625 0.15 ]
Alternatively, we can iterate over all cells in the mesh with a simple for loop or list comprehension:
>>> cells = [cell for cell in mesh] >>> len(cells) 400
