The Mesh-Oriented datABase (MOAB) is a component for representing and evaluating
|
|
|
|
mesh data. MOAB can store structured and unstructured mesh, consisting of
|
|
|
|
elements in the finite element zoo plus polygons and polyhedra. The functional
|
|
|
|
interface to MOAB is simple yet powerful, allowing the representation of many
|
|
|
|
types of metadata commonly found on the mesh. MOAB is optimized for efficiency
|
|
|
|
in space and time, based on access to mesh in chunks rather than through
|
|
|
|
individual entities, while also versatile enough to support individual entity
|
|
|
|
access. The MOAB library can naturally represent finite element and other types
|
|
|
|
of mesh data. Various types of meta-data are often used in conjunction with
|
|
|
|
a mesh. Examples include boundary condition groupings, material types, and
|
|
|
|
provenance information for the mesh. Because the data model used in MOAB is so
|
|
|
|
abstract, conventions are useful for describing how meta-data is stored into
|
|
|
|
that data model.
