Add a new program for computing Immersed Boundary field for Xall (7c9cea3)

Performed AABB algorithm check: the speedup is poor and the consistency is failing: the computed distance values are varing at refinemnt level varing.

Must be totally re-implemented. (0920641)

  • Merge branch 'release/1.0.5' (3b48721)

v1.0.4 (2018-06-04) ​

Full Changelog

Miscellaneous ​

  • Merge tag 'v1.0.3' into develop

Add merge files method, stable release (b120619)

  • Temporary stop this feature (c7c94f0)
  • Greatly improved nearby search speed by means of AABB tree (e2c5c45)
  • Split STL file handler and STL surface: a more sane approach! Break backward compatibility (433ed02)
  • Trim out pointer procedures for not introducing too much F2008 features yet not widely supported (88def9d)
  • (re)add AABB STL output (92ef922)
  • Add compute_distance method that returns also facet index of closest facet (7d066ff)
  • Make distance/connectivity computation efficient

Make distance/connectivity computation efficient: in order to load and analize very big input STL files the distance and connectivity computations have strongly refactored in order to fully exploit AABB tree representation.

The backward compatibility has been brocken: file handler is now a distinguished object with respect the surface object.

A new method compute_distance for computing the distance has been added: it returns also the facet closest to the given point, not only the distance. (0c92731)
