2.14 VelocityAdaptiveMeshConstraintState object

The VelocityAdaptiveMeshConstraintState object stores the propagating data for an Arbitrary Lagrangian Eularian (ALE) style velocity adaptive mesh constraint in a step. One instance of this object is created internally by the VelocityAdaptiveMeshConstraint object for each step. The instance is also deleted internally by the VelocityAdaptiveMeshConstraint object.

The VelocityAdaptiveMeshConstraintState object has no constructor or methods.

The VelocityAdaptiveMeshConstraintState object is derived from the AdaptiveMeshConstraintState object.
