LevelSetMeshRefinementTransfer

When solving the level set equation performing reinitialization of the level set variable is often required to maintain its conservative or signed distance characteristics. Within MOOSE the reinitialization step of the solve is handled using the MultiApp system.

To allow for the sub-application that is performing the reinitialization to use the adapted mesh of the parent application the mesh adaptivity information must be transferred from the parent application to the sub-application, this transfer is performed by the LevelSetMeshRefinementTransfer.

  • from_solution_tagThe tag of the solution vector to be transferred (default to the solution)

    C++ Type:TagName

    Controllable:No

    Description:The tag of the solution vector to be transferred (default to the solution)

  • to_blocksSubdomain restriction to transfer to, (defaults to all the target app domain)

Optional Parameters

  • _called_legacy_paramsTrue

    Default:True

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:No

  • control_tagsAdds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.

    C++ Type:std::vector<std::string>

    Controllable:No

    Description:Adds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.

  • enableTrueSet the enabled status of the MooseObject.

    Default:True

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:Yes

    Description:Set the enabled status of the MooseObject.

  • skip_coordinate_collapsingTrueWhether to skip coordinate collapsing (translation and rotation are still performed, only XYZ, RZ etc collapsing is skipped) when performing mapping and inverse mapping coordinate transformation operations. This parameter should only be set by users who really know what they're doing.

    Default:True

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:No

    Description:Whether to skip coordinate collapsing (translation and rotation are still performed, only XYZ, RZ etc collapsing is skipped) when performing mapping and inverse mapping coordinate transformation operations. This parameter should only be set by users who really know what they're doing.

  • use_displaced_meshFalseWhether or not this object should use the displaced mesh for computation. Note that in the case this is true but no displacements are provided in the Mesh block the undisplaced mesh will still be used.

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:No

    Description:Whether or not this object should use the displaced mesh for computation. Note that in the case this is true but no displacements are provided in the Mesh block the undisplaced mesh will still be used.
