Detailed Description

Member Typedef Documentation

Derivative

template<int dim>

typedef Tensor<2,dim> DerivativeApproximation::internal::SecondDerivative< dim >::Derivative

Declare the data type which holds the derivative described by this class.

ProjectedDerivative

template<int dim>

typedef Tensor<1,dim> DerivativeApproximation::internal::SecondDerivative< dim >::ProjectedDerivative

Likewise declare the data type that holds the derivative projected to a certain directions.

get_projected_derivative()

template<int dim>

template<class InputVector , int spacedim>

SecondDerivative< dim >::ProjectedDerivative DerivativeApproximation::internal::SecondDerivative< dim >::get_projected_derivative ( const FEValues< dim, spacedim > &  fe_values, const InputVector &  solution, const unsigned int  component  )

inlinestatic

Given an FEValues object initialized to a cell, and a solution vector, extract the desired derivative at the first quadrature point (which is the only one, as we only evaluate the finite element field at the center of each cell).

Definition at line 247 of file derivative_approximation.cc.

derivative_norm()

template<int dim>

double DerivativeApproximation::internal::SecondDerivative< dim >::derivative_norm ( const Derivative &  d )

inlinestatic

Return the norm of the derivative object. Here, for the (symmetric) tensor of second derivatives, we choose the absolute value of the largest eigenvalue, which is the matrix norm associated to the \(l_2\) norm of vectors. It is also the largest value of the curvature of the solution.

symmetrize()

template<int dim>

void DerivativeApproximation::internal::SecondDerivative< dim >::symmetrize ( Derivative &  derivative_tensor )

inlinestatic

If for the present derivative order, symmetrization of the derivative tensor is necessary, then do so on the argument.

For the second derivatives, each entry of the tensor is set to the mean of its value and the value of the transpose element.

Note that this function actually modifies its argument.
