Level Set Periodic Planes

Level Set Periodic Planes = <float1> <float2> <float3> <float4> <float5> <float6>

Description / Usage

This card directs the level-set renormalization to accommodate peroidic boundary conditions (see Advanced Capabilities Manual AC_Periodic capability). The periodic boundary conditions on the level set field are not compatible with renormalization unless this capability is specified.

<float1>

x-coordinate value of first periodic boundary.

<float2>

x-coordinate value of second periodic boundary. If equivalent to float1 than this direction is not periodic.

<float3>

y-coordinate value of first periodic boundary.

<float4>

y-coordinate value of second periodic boundary. If equivalent to float3 than this direction is not periodic.

<float5>

y-coordinate value of first periodic boundary.

<float6>

y-coordinate value of second periodic boundary. If equivalent to float5 than this direction is not periodic.

Examples

Two examples of initialization methods are provide below:

Level Set Periodic Boundary = -0.5 0.5 0 0 0 0

This card instructs renormalization to accommodate the x-directed-boundaries to be considered as periodic relative to the level-set field.
