// <h1>Adaptivity Example 5 - Periodic Boundary Conditions with Adaptive Mesh Refinement</h1>
// \author Benjamin S. Kirk
// \date 2003
//
// This example uses the same simple, linear transient
// system as in example 10; however in this case periodic boundary
// conditions are applied at the sides of the domain.
//
// This code also contains an example use of ParsedFunction, to
// allow users to specify an exact solution on the command line.
