Problem Definition

The following inputs must be preceded by “amr.”

Description

Type

Default

n_cell

Number of cells at level 0 in each coordinate direction

Int Int Int

None

max_level

Maximum level of refinement allowed (0 when single-level)

Int

None

The following inputs must be preceded by “geometry.”

Description

Type

Default

coord_sys

0 for Cartesian

Int

0

is_periodic

1 for true, 0 for false (one value for each coordinate direction)

Ints

0 0 0

prob_lo

Low corner of physical domain (physical not index space)

Reals

0 0 0

prob_hi

High corner of physical domain (physical not index space)

Reals

None

prob_extent

Extent of physical domain (physical not index space)

Reals

None

Note that internally prob_lo and prob_hi are the variables carried by the Geometry class. In the inputs file (or command line), one can specify 1) geometry.prob_hi only or 2) geometry.prob_extent only or 3) geometry.prob_lo and geometry.prob_hi or 4) geometry.prob_lo and geometry.prob_extent. If geometry.prob_lo is not specified then it will be 0 in each coordinate direction. If geometry.prob_extent is specified (and geometry.prob_hi is not) then internally “prob_hi” will be set to “prob_lo” + “prob_extent”.
