ADDerivativeSumMaterial

Meta-material to sum up multiple derivative materials

Description

This material generates new material properties that sum up the values and derivatives of a specified set of function materials. Using args argument the union of all sets of dependent variables has to be specified so that the ADDerivativeSumMaterial can gather the necessary derivatives to sum up.

Example usage

[./free_energy]
  type = DerivativeSumMaterial
  f_name = F_sum
  sum_materials = 'Fa Fb Fb'
  args = 'c'
  outputs = all

constant_onNONEWhen ELEMENT, MOOSE will only call computeQpProperties() for the 0th quadrature point, and then copy that value to the other qps.When SUBDOMAIN, MOOSE will only call computeQpProperties() for the 0th quadrature point, and then copy that value to the other qps. Evaluations on element qps will be skipped
Default:NONE

Options:
Description:Vector of displacement gradient variables (see Modules/PhaseField/DisplacementGradients action)
f_nameFBase name of the free energy function (used to name the material properties)
Default:F
C++ Type:std::string
