Dear all,

is there a 2d square mesh with periodic boundary conditions or is this only supported in 1d? I realised that to get steep orography in my setup I would either have to work at very high resolution or shrink the size of the earth.

So I thought instead it would be easier if I work in a 2+1 dimensional box which represents part of the atmosphere, but I do not want to have to worry about boundary conditions in the horizontal condition.

Thanks,

Eike

Hi Jemma,

I think I figured it out now. Since the function I want to use is more complicated, I actually wrote a direct par_loop which modifies mesh.coordinates in place, I guess that’s also ok. When I plot the mesh it looks like what I want.

Thanks,

Eike

Hi Eike,

Take a look at line 304 of this:

https://bitbucket.org/colinjcotter/slicemodels/src/b6d5eac9dbf28cbcf24aef5be60e2c5756d0b677/slicemodels.py?at=master

An example of how to use this is in examples/nonlinear_mountain.py

I should be around in the chat for a couple of hours if you want to catch me…

Subject: [firedrake] Perturbed extruded meshes

Dear firdrakers,

how can I perturb an extruded mesh? I want to add 'mountains' (i.e.
bumps) to my spherical icosahedral mesh, so I want to change the radius
according to something like

r = r(theta) = R_earth+H*exp(-0.5*theta^2/D^2)

Can I do this by moving around the underlying 2d host grid and then
extruding that? How can I perturb the 2d grid?

Thanks a lot,

Eike
