Detailed Description

This is a generic class that defines a solver to handle time integration of DifferentiableSystems.

A user can define a solver for unsteady problems by deriving from this class and implementing certain functions.

This class is part of the new DifferentiableSystem framework, which is still experimental. Users of this framework should beware of bugs and future API changes.

adjoint_advance_timestep()

This will be done before every UnsteadySolver::adjoint_solve().

Reimplemented from libMesh::TimeSolver.

Reimplemented in libMesh::NewmarkSolver.

advance_timestep()

void libMesh::UnsteadySolver::advance_timestep ( )

overridevirtual

This method advances the solution to the next timestep, after a solve() has been performed.

Often this will be done after every UnsteadySolver::solve(), but adaptive mesh refinement and/or adaptive time step selection may require some solve() steps to be repeated.

du()

Real libMesh::UnsteadySolver::du ( const SystemNorm &  norm ) const

overridevirtual

Computes the size of ||u^{n+1} - u^{n}|| in some norm.

Note

While you can always call this function, its result may or may not be very meaningful. For example, if you call this function right after calling advance_timestep() then you'll get a result of zero since old_nonlinear_solution is set equal to nonlinear_solution in this function.

Implements libMesh::TimeSolver.

reduce_deltat_on_diffsolver_failure

unsigned int libMesh::TimeSolver::reduce_deltat_on_diffsolver_failure

This value (which defaults to zero) is the number of times the TimeSolver is allowed to halve deltat and let the DiffSolver repeat the latest failed solve with a reduced timestep.

Note

This has no effect for SteadySolvers.

You must set at least one of the DiffSolver flags "continue_after_max_iterations" or "continue_after_backtrack_failure" to allow the TimeSolver to retry the solve.
