SmoothCommand
Smooth
Smooth - Set grid refinement and adaption parameters, perform optimization
Synopsis
Smooth
MaterialType
Description
This command smoothes the grid, using averaging, of all meshes with the specified material type. Smoothing continues until there is negligible improvement in the [grid.html grid] quality. No interpolation of solution variables is performed, so care must be exercised. Smoothing with an existing dopant will change the spatial doping concentration of the dopant!
This command is a tcl procedure. The procedure is:
proc Smooth {Material} {
set qual [[grid.html grid] $Material qual joint]
set oldqual 0.0
while {$qual > $oldqual 0.001} {
[grid.html grid] $Material smooth
set oldqual $qual
set qual [[grid.html grid] $Material qual joint]
puts $qual
}
}
Examples
Smooth silicon
This command will smooth the silicon mesh.
Bugs and Missing Features
It would be nice, but very difficult, to interpolate solutions accurately.
Because this is a tcl script, it is sensitive to spaces. The following will not work
Smooth insulator = lto
because tcl will interpret it as having three arguments, not one. The spaces must be removed for correct operation
Smooth insulator=lto
