Date
December 20, 2000. Inversion means: given a set of convexes and a point, find:
  • a subset of candidate convexes, which are likely to contain the point (using bgeot::kdtree).
  • on these candidate convexes, invert the geometric transformation, i.e. find the corresponding coordinates on the reference element.

Inversion of a geometric transformation is not a trivial task, especially with non-linear geometric transformations. This is the central part of interpolation routines from a getfem::mesh_fem onto another.
