type_particle_list Module Reference

The particle list type.

Data Types
type	t_particle_list
	The generic particle list. More...

Functions/Subroutines
subroutine	t_particle_list_init (self, ndata, n, maxn)
	Initialize the list with a given number of elements and max elements.
subroutine	t_particle_list_copy (self, particle_list_to_copy, maxn)
	Initialize the list with a given number of elements and max elements.
subroutine	t_particle_list_resize (self, n)
	Change the size of the particle list.
subroutine	t_particle_list_mpi_exchange (self)
	Exchange the particles with the neighbooring nodes if outside the local domain.
subroutine	t_particle_list_set_advection_method (self, method)
	Set the advection method Accepted values:
subroutine	t_particle_list_advect (self, dt_nm1, dt_n, dt, velocity_nm1, velocity_n, velocity_np1, interpolant)
	Advect the particle list with the advection method.
recursive subroutine	t_particle_list_relocalize (self, exchange)
	Relocalize the particles in the domain or in foreign MPI nodes.
subroutine	t_particle_list_clamp (self, nghosts_allowed)
	Clamp the particles inside the effective usable domain This is done for security matters as no particle should live outside the domain before advection.
subroutine	t_particle_list_print (self)

Variables
integer, parameter	default_max_elements = 100

Function/Subroutine Documentation

t_particle_list_clamp()

subroutine type_particle_list::t_particle_list_clamp	(	class(t_particle_list), intent(inout)	self,
		integer, intent(in)	nghosts_allowed )

Parameters

[in,out]	self	the element
[in]	nghosts_allowed	the number of ghosts that we allow

t_particle_list_copy()

subroutine type_particle_list::t_particle_list_copy	(	class(t_particle_list), intent(inout)	self,
		class(t_particle_list), intent(in)	particle_list_to_copy,
		integer, intent(in), optional	maxn )

Parameters

[in,out]	self	the element
[in]	particle_list_to_copy	the particle list to copy
[in]	maxN	(optional) restrict the maximum number of particles (for efficiency matters).

Precondition

max_nelements > to particle_list_to_copynelements

t_particle_list_init()

subroutine type_particle_list::t_particle_list_init	(	class(t_particle_list), intent(inout)	self,
		integer, intent(in)	ndata,
		integer, intent(in)	n,
		integer, intent(in), optional	maxn )

Parameters

[in,out]	self	the element to initialize
[in]	ndata	the number of real data for each particle
[in]	N	the wanted number of particles (must be smaller than maxN); can be null
[in]	maxN	*(optional)* the maximum number of particles (for efficiency matters)

Precondition

N>=0 && N<=maxN

t_particle_list_mpi_exchange()

subroutine type_particle_list::t_particle_list_mpi_exchange

(

class(t_particle_list), intent(inout)

self

)

Todo

This could be done with less memory usage by using a map of destination nodes or a real list of outgoing particles

Note

If some particles reside outside the physical domain, we leave them in the current node

For efficiency, the neighbours outsiders are stored in a t_particle_list

The particle iterator

The number of outsiders

The outsider particles that has to be sent

The destination node (can be our own rank node) We have to use the relative neighbour information in order to avoid problems with periodic bnd (with 1 node that can be left neighbour as well as right)

t_particle_list_relocalize()

recursive subroutine type_particle_list::t_particle_list_relocalize	(	class(t_particle_list), intent(inout)	self,
		logical, intent(in), optional	exchange )

Parameters

[in,out]	self	the element
[in]	exchange	*(optional)* if true, force the relocalization, even with periodic boundaries (this is used when exchanging with neighbour processors)

t_particle_list_resize()

subroutine type_particle_list::t_particle_list_resize	(	class(t_particle_list), intent(inout)	self,
		integer, intent(in)	n )

Note

It does not affect the actual max_nelements if N<=selfmax_nelements. Otherwise, reallocate the array and augment the max_nelements sufficiently (max=max+N)

t_particle_list_set_advection_method()

subroutine type_particle_list::t_particle_list_set_advection_method	(	class(t_particle_list), intent(inout)	self,
		integer, intent(in)	method )

• time_order_1
• time_order_RK2
