Abstract

CoordBase provides a mechanism for registering coordinate systems, and maintaining a database of coordinate systems and their coordinates, using key-value tables.

CoordBase also provides a way for specifying the extent of the simulation domain that is independent of the actual coordinate and symmetry thorns, and for specifying the discretisation of the boundary that is independent of the actual boundary thorns.
