Detailed Description
A domain is subspace of a mesh containing a set of points and the topological relation between them.
In a domain, all the elements are of the same type. For example, a domain can not contain both hexahedrons and tetrahedrons.

◆ canonical_dimension()
|
pure virtual |
Get the canonical dimension of the element contained in this domain, ie, the number of coordinates of a point relative to the element basis.
For example, a triangle has a canonical dimension of 2, even if it is inside a 3 dimensions mesh : a point inside the triangle has coordinates (x,y,z) relative to the mesh's basis, and coordinates (u, v) relative to the triangle's first node.
Implemented in caribou::topology::Domain< Mesh, Element, NodeIndex >.
