<pre> 1) A matrix of shape function weights(shape functions evaluated at parametric coordinates of the quadrature points).
2) The number of quadrature points and cell nodes. These parameters size the matrix, and allow for convinent evaluation by users of the definition. </pre>
To create an instance of class vtkQuadratureSchemeDefinition, simply invoke its constructor as follows
obj = vtkQuadratureSchemeDefinition
obj
is an instance of the vtkQuadratureSchemeDefinition class.
string = obj.GetClassName ()
int = obj.IsA (string name)
vtkQuadratureSchemeDefinition = obj.NewInstance ()
vtkQuadratureSchemeDefinition = obj.SafeDownCast (vtkObject o)
int = obj.DeepCopy (vtkQuadratureSchemeDefinition other)
- Deep copy.
int = obj.SaveState (vtkXMLDataElement e)
- Put the object into an XML representation. The element
passed in is assumed to be empty.
int = obj.RestoreState (vtkXMLDataElement e)
- Restore the object from an XML representation.
obj.Clear ()
- Release all allocated resources and set the
object to an unitialized state.
obj.Initialize (int cellType, int numberOfNodes, int numberOfQuadraturePoints, double shapeFunctionWeights)
- Initialize the object allocating resources as needed.
obj.Initialize (int cellType, int numberOfNodes, int numberOfQuadraturePoints, double shapeFunctionWeights, double quadratureWeights)
- Initialize the object allocating resources as needed.
int = obj.GetCellType () const
- Access to an alternative key.
int = obj.GetQuadratureKey () const
- Get the number of nodes associated with the interpolation.
int = obj.GetNumberOfNodes () const
- Get the number of quadrature points associated with the scheme.
int = obj.GetNumberOfQuadraturePoints () const
- Get the array of shape function weights. Shape function weights are
the shape functions evaluated at the quadrature points. There are
"NumberOfNodes" weights for each quadrature point.
