Detailed Description

template<int DIM>
class SAMRAI::xfer::TimeInterpolateOperator< DIM >

Class TimeInterpolateOperator<DIM> is an abstract base class for each time interpolation operator used in the SAMRAI framework. This class defines the interface between numerical interpolation routines and the rest of the framework. Each concrete time interpolation operator subclass provide two operations:

• (1) an implementation of the time interpolation operation appropriate for its corresponding patch data type.
• (2) a function that determines whether or not the operator matches an arbitrary request for a time interpolation operator.

To add a new time interpolation operator (either for a new patch data type or for a new time interpolation routine on an existing type), define the operator by inheriting from this abstract base class. The operator subclass must implement the interpolation operation in the timeInterpolate() function, and provide a response to a general operator request in the findTimeInterpolateOperator() function. Then, the new operator must be added to the operator list for the appropriate transfer geometry object using the Geometry<DIM>::addTimeInterpolateOperator() function.

Although time interpolation operators usually depend only on patch data centering and data type and not the mesh coordinate system, they are defined in the geometry package.

Perform time interpolation between two patch data sources and place result in the destination patch data. Time interpolation is performed on the intersection of the destination patch data and the input box. The time to which data is interpolated is provided by the destination data.
