Question: How the meshgen works #57

Closed SorooshMani-NOAA closed 2 years ago

SorooshMani-NOAA commented 2 years ago

@WPringle, do any points get generated in the mesh gen code other than the ones initially created? https://github.com/CHLNDDEV/oceanmesh/blob/b763b1a531961c5a0278036299dc0504a8260e98/oceanmesh/mesh_generator.py#L146

no, they do not.

Thanks @krober10nd, I have another question. How is the lock_boundary enforced? It just add stuff to ifix which is not used anywhere: https://github.com/CHLNDDEV/oceanmesh/blob/b763b1a531961c5a0278036299dc0504a8260e98/oceanmesh/mesh_generator.py#L246-L249

It is probably an oversight. The idea is this finds the node nearest to the fixed point and doesn't move it.

I see, thanks, I'll close the ticket for now since I don't have any other questions about generate_mesh.
