  • New: Added a new Mapping class, MappingManifold, to use exact + geometrical information extracted from the Manifold description instead + of a polynomial approximation when computing transformations from the + reference to the real cell. This class allows the computation of + quadrature points, tangent vectors, and normal vectors which are exact + with respect to the geometrical description, and it uses the underlying + Manifold objects of the Triangulation. MappingManifold coincides with + MappingQ1 for the FlatManifold descriptor. +

  • New: Added GridGenerator::torus() to generate the volume mesh of a torus in three dimensions and a manifold description TorusManifold to go with it.
