Sectionobject and methods are intended to be used in the PETSc Vec and Mat implementations. The indices returned by theSectionare appropriate for the kind ofVecit is associated with. For example, if the vector being indexed is a local vector, we call the section a local section. If the section indexes a global vector, we call it a global section. For parallel vectors, like global vectors, we use negative indices to indicate DOFs owned by other processes.- Parameters:
comm (Comm | None) – MPI communicator, defaults to
Sys.getDefaultComm.- Return type:
See also
- createGlobalSection(sf)#
Create a section describing the global field layout.
Collective.
The section describes the global field layout using the local section and an
SFdescribing the section point overlap.If we have a set of local sections defining the layout of a set of local vectors, and also an
SFto determine which section points are shared and the ownership, we can calculate a global section defining the parallel data layout, and the associated global vector.This gives negative sizes and offsets to points not owned by this process.
includeConstraintsandlocalOffsetsparameters of the C API are always set toFalse.- Parameters:
sf (SF) – The
SFdescribing the parallel layout of the section points (leaves are unowned local points).- Return type:
