vtkQuadratureSchemeDefinition

Section: Visualization Toolkit Common Classes

Usage

An Elemental data type that holds a definition of a numerical quadrature scheme. The definition contains the requisite information to interpolate to the so called quadrature points of the specific scheme. namely:

<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
