Write a postprocessor that outputs the elevation from the dynamic topography/mesh movement scheme #1270

I agree with @ian-r-rose that a merged version of topography and heat_flux_map is the easiest way to implement this. |
Yes, I think this ought to be done in a new geometry member function. |
Hi, |
From an email by @gassmoeller to Payman Janbakhsh on the mailing list:
surprisingly (also to me) ASPECT currently does not have a postprocessor that outputs a map of the topography of a deformed mesh. The closest thing is the visualization/depth postprocessor that will output the depth of every point of the domain. However, the
depth()
function of the geometry model is bounded to (0,maximal_depth), so it will not output positive topography correctly. If you would be willing to spend some time helping create a postprocessor for topography that would certainly be a useful addition. Let us know if you would have the time and willingness to do so, we could then discuss the details of the implementation (always easier to discuss that first, before writing something and then reworking it many times).Depending on your intended purpose you would either need to create a general postprocessor that outputs the topography into a separate file (as for example postprocess/heat_flux_map), or a visualization postprocessor that adds another field to the .vtu output of the solution (as for example postprocess/visualization/depth). However, there might be some challenges to make it work for arbitrary model geometries.
