# DMPlexShearGeometry
This shears the domain, meaning adds a multiple of the shear coordinate to all other coordinates. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscdmplex.h"   
#include "petscfe.h"       
PetscErrorCode DMPlexShearGeometry(DM dm, DMDirection direction, PetscReal multipliers[])
```
Not Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***dm          -*** The `DMPLEX`
- ***direction   -*** The shear coordinate direction, e.g. 0 is the x-axis
- ***multipliers -*** The multiplier m for each direction which is not the shear direction
