Minimal boundary conditions - #1318
Conversation
Adds domain-edge (outer) physical boundary conditions for the MHD model, ported
from the embedded-boundary development branch as a self-contained change.
Boundaries are declared per face in Python, with constant prescribed values:
boundary_types="physical",
boundary_conditions={
"xlower": {"type": "super-magnetofast-inflow",
"data": {"velocity": [U, 0.0, 0.0],
"density": 1.0,
"pressure": 1.0,
"B": [Bx, By, 0.0]}},
"xupper": {"type": "open"},
},
Supported types: none, reflective, super-magnetofast-inflow, open.
Core (src/core/boundary, src/core/numerics/boundary_condition)
- BoundaryManager / BoundaryFactory map the declared dict to per-quantity field
boundary conditions: None, Neumann, Dirichlet, Symmetric, Antisymmetric,
DivergenceFreeTransverseNeumann, DivergenceFreeTransverseDirichlet and
TotalEnergyFromPressure.
- Conservative composites are built from the prescribed primitives: momentum
rho*v, and the total energy from the prescribed pressure through the ideal-gas
relation, using the heat capacity ratio already carried by the dict.
- Inflow B stays E-mediated: a divergence-free transverse Dirichlet condition
sets the transverse ghost components while keeping the normal face divergence
free, so it also produces valid ghosts at init and regrid.
- Supporting infrastructure: IPatchFieldAccessor, field / tensorfield / vecfield
concepts, GridLayout::boundaryMirrored and toFieldBox, the Side enum,
Point::neighbor, a Box reverse iterator and initializer/dict_utils.
AMR (src/amr)
- FieldRefinePatchStrategy fills physical-boundary ghosts during SAMRAI refine
schedules; MagneticRefinePatchStrategy is reparented onto it.
- MHDModel builds a BoundaryManager; HybridModel gets an inert one so messenger
signatures stay uniform. MHDMessenger wires the per-quantity refine patch
strategies, and the messenger factory threads the manager through.
- The grid periodicity now follows the declared boundary_type per axis instead
of being hardcoded periodic, and SAMRAI is told not to grow undersized boxes
across a physical boundary (which produced patches with interior cells outside
the domain that no fill ever wrote).
- Outer E boundary conditions are triggered after constrained transport.
Python (pyphare)
- pharein/boundary.py holds the boundary-condition dataclasses, validation and
serialisation; simulation.py accepts boundary_types="physical" and the
boundary_conditions dict; restarts warn when a restart changes them.
Tests
- C++ unit tests per boundary-condition type (including the Dirichlet-B-as-energy
sub-BC and the divergence-free transverse pair in 1D/2D/3D), the boundary
manager and the boundary factory dispatch.
- pyphare validation tests for the configuration dict.
- Functional: mhd_shock_with_super_magnetofast_inflow (inflow density holds the
prescribed left state over 1000 steps) and a two-level
mhd_harris_with_boundaries exercising a refined level at a physical boundary.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change adds physical boundary-condition support across Python simulation setup, C++ boundary abstractions, AMR ghost refinement, MHD solver integration, and automated tests. It supports none, open, reflective, and super-magnetofast-inflow conditions. ChangesPhysical Boundary Conditions
Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This PR adds configurable physical boundaries and coupled field updates, but the current implementation can trigger undefined behavior during boundary setup, generate invalid energy values for open boundaries, or leave partially updated state after a failed update; corner results may also depend on fill order. Merge should wait for these correctness and verification issues to be fixed or explicitly accepted by the owners. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Check ghost-list cardinality before building ID maps.
When a sibling list is shorter than ghostDensity, buildFieldIdMaps_ indexes it before registerGhostRefinePatchStrategies_ checks its size. This can cause undefined behavior during messenger setup instead of the intended exception. Validate all six indexed lists against nStates before the loop.

Validate gamma before registering open conditions.
BoundaryFactory::create defaults gamma to 0.0, while register_open_conditions_ constructs FieldTotalEnergyFromPressureBoundaryCondition without validation. That condition computes energy using gamma - 1.0, so gamma <= 1.0 produces invalid energy values or division by zero. Apply the same validation as register_inflow_conditions_ and add a regression test.

Two new boundary-condition headers are missing from SOURCES_INC.
The list at lines 38-44 enumerates every other condition header added by this change, but it omits:
numerics/boundary_condition/field_divergence_free_transverse_dirichlet_boundary_condition.hppnumerics/boundary_condition/divergence_free_transverse_common.hpp
Both are part of this change. The factory in src/core/numerics/boundary_condition/field_boundary_condition_factory.hpp constructs FieldDivergenceFreeTransverseDirichletBoundaryCondition, and tests/core/numerics/boundary_condition/test_field_boundary_conditions_div_free_transverse_dirichlet.cpp includes the header directly. The build still resolves them through include directories, so this does not break compilation; it leaves the target's source manifest incomplete and inconsistent with the sibling entries.

Use Codim3BoundaryLocation in the node loops.
Lines 62 and 89 cast node indices to Codim2BoundaryLocation. Both loops then test edge dispatch instead of 3D-corner dispatch. In the ByDirection test, use the third adjacent face ([2]) after the correction.

The check can pass without verifying anything.
If diag_path does not exist, the function returns before the checked_any assertion at line 235. The test then reports success with zero verification. The same weakening applies to the broad except Exception: continue at lines 205-206: it skips timestamps whose read fails for any reason, including a bug in the reader.
Make the missing-diagnostics case fail, and narrow the exception type so that unexpected reader errors surface.

Adds base mechanism for domain-edge boundary conditions applied to fields, and make it possible to use it by the MHD model.
Issue
Relates to #1127.
Usage
To be backward-compatible, the non-periodic directions must be indicated as "physical" in the "boundary_types" Simulation's kwarg lis. Up to now this list was only allowed to specify "periodic" for each direction. Periodic directions remains the default behavior. I think "boundary_types" should be renamed as "direction_types" or "is_periodic" (in this last case should becomes a list of bools)
For non-periodic directions, boundary_conditions shall be specified, with this kind of SImulation's kwargs:
Supported boundary condition types:
none,reflective,super-magnetofast-inflow,open.Design
We resort to the SAMRAI mechanism for enforcing boundary conditions: overriding the SAMRAI's
RefinePatchStrategyclass by aFieldRefinePatchStrategy. Its main function,setPhysicalBoundaryConditionsdefers the work to newly createdcoreclasses, mostlyBoundaryManagerandIFieldBoundaryCondition. This last one is abstract, and is implemented for each elementary field boundary condition (Neumann, Dirichlet, ...). TheBoundaryManagerbelongs to the model, and basically associates oneIFieldBoundaryConditionper physical quantity and per physical/non-periodic boundary.More detail will be added here.
