Dear Floriane,

 

Importing from FEniCS definitely won’t work as we have a completely different concept of periodicity from them.

 

It might be possible to load the existing gmsh file, map the boundary vertices to each other and produce the corresponding DG coordinate field, but that will be quite a fiddly process.


Gmsh supports periodicity to some extent. We can read periodic GMsh files and do the right thing in Plex. Is this a periodic Gmsh?

  Thanks,

     Matt
 

 

Regards,

 

David

Ok so there's no other way to do it with Firedrake?

 

Could I do it with FeniCs and import my mesh and corresponding function space to firedrake ?

Ah, that's the bit I was missing. With periodic unit square mesh it is not possible. One could hack something that moved the mesh nodes around to capture the circle appropriately. But that's going to be fiddly too.

Cheers,
Lawrence
