This class is a model for a general function that, given a point at which to evaluate the function, returns a vector of values with one or more components.
The class serves the purpose of representing both scalar and vector valued functions. To this end, we consider scalar functions as a special case of vector valued functions, in the former case only having a single component return vector. Since handling vectors is comparatively expensive, the interface of this class has functions which only ask for a single component of the vector-valued results (this is what you will usually need in case you know that your function is scalar-valued) as well as functions you can ask for an entire vector of results with as many components as the function object represents. Access to function objects therefore is through the following methods:
For more efficiency, there are other functions returning one or all components at a list of points at once:
Furthermore, there are functions returning the gradient of the function or even higher derivatives at one or several points.
You will usually only overload those functions you need; the functions returning several values at a time (value_list(), vector_value_list(), and gradient analogs) will call those returning only one value (value(), vector_value(), and gradient analogs), while those ones will throw an exception when called but not overloaded.
Conversely, the functions returning all components of the function at one or several points (i.e. vector_value(), vector_value_list()), will not call the function returning one component at one point repeatedly, once for each point and component. The reason is efficiency: this would amount to too many virtual function calls. If you have vector- valued functions, you should therefore also provide overloads of the virtual functions for all components at a time.
Also note, that unless only called a very small number of times, you should overload all sets of functions (returning only one value, as well as those returning a whole array), since the cost of evaluation of a point value is often less than the virtual function call itself.
Support for time dependent functions can be found in the base class FunctionTime.
If the functions you are dealing with have a number of components that are a priori known (for example, dim
elements), you might consider using the TensorFunction class instead. This is, in particular, true if the objects you return have the properties of a tensor, i.e., they are for example dim-dimensional vectors or dim-by-dim matrices. On the other hand, functions like VectorTools::interpolate or VectorTools::interpolate_boundary_values definitely only want objects of the current type. You can use the VectorFunctionFromTensorFunction class to convert the former to the latter.
Most of the time, your functions will have the form \(f : \Omega \rightarrow {\mathbb R}^{n_\text{components}}\). However, there are occasions where you want the function to return vectors (or scalars) over a different number field, for example functions that return complex numbers or vectors of complex numbers: \(f : \Omega \rightarrow {\mathbb C}^{n_\text{components}}\). In such cases, you can choose a value different than the default double
for the second template argument of this class: it describes the scalar type to be used for each component of your return values. It defaults to double
, but in the example above, it could be set to std::complex<double>
.
dim | The space dimension of the range space within which the domain \(\Omega\) of the function lies. Consequently, the function will be evaluated at objects of type Point<dim> . |
RangeNumberType | The scalar type of the vector space that is the range (or image) of this function. As discussed above, objects of the current type represent functions from \({\mathbb R}^\text{dim}\) to \(S^{n_\text{components}}\) where \(S\) is the underlying scalar type of the vector space. The type of \(S\) is given by the RangeNumberType template argument. |

) |
Constructor. May take an initial value for the number of components (which defaults to one, i.e. a scalar function), and the time variable, which defaults to zero.
|
pure virtual |
Virtual destructor; absolutely necessary in this case.
This destructor is declared pure virtual, such that objects of this class cannot be created. Since all the other virtual functions have a pseudo- implementation to avoid overhead in derived classes, they can not be abstract. As a consequence, we could generate an object of this class because none of this class's functions are abstract.
We circumvent this problem by making the destructor of this class abstract virtual. This ensures that at least one member function is abstract, and consequently, no objects of type Function can be created. However, there is no need for derived classes to explicitly implement a destructor: every class has a destructor, either explicitly implemented or implicitly generated by the compiler, and this resolves the abstractness of any derived class even if they do not have an explicitly declared destructor.
Nonetheless, since derived classes want to call the destructor of a base class, this destructor is implemented (despite it being pure virtual).
Function& Function< dim, RangeNumberType >::operator= | ( | const Function< dim, RangeNumberType > & | f | ) |
Assignment operator. This is here only so that you can have objects of derived classes in containers, or assign them otherwise. It will raise an exception if the object from which you assign has a different number of components than the one being assigned to.
|
virtual |
Return the value of the function at the given point. Unless there is only one component (i.e. the function is scalar), you should state the component you want to have evaluated; it defaults to zero, i.e. the first component.
