Now are all names changes, convenience headers created, test moved, old headers deprecated. |
Description
The current naming scheme for Raviart-Thomas elements is for simplices raviartthomasMNd and for cubes raviartthomasMqNd with M the order and N the dimension. The BDM elements follow this scheme.
I find the naming confusing and propose a change. I propose the change to raviartthomasMsimplexNd raviartthomasMquadNd but would welcome more appropriate proposals.
BTW: I want to write a convenience header for RT and BDM that automatically picks the correct implementation, like other local elements have.
