Detailed Description

Todo:
Update this documentation and the one of Operator

The abstract base class of all algorithms in this library. An operator is an object with an operator(), which transforms a set of named vectors into another set of named vectors.

Furthermore, an operator can be notified of parameter changes by the calling routine. The outer iteration can notify() the Operator of an Event, which could be for instance a change of mesh, a different time step size or too slow convergence of Newton's method, which would then trigger reassembling of a matrix or similar things.

Usage for nested iterations

This is probably the most prominent use for Operator, where an outer iterative method calls an inner solver and so on. Typically, the innermost method in such a nested system will have to compute a residual using values from all outer iterations. Since the depth and order of such a nesting is hardly predictable when designing a general tool, we use AnyData to access these vectors. Typically, the first vector in out contains the start vector when operator()() is called, and the solution when the function returns. The object in is providing additional information and forwarded to the inner Operator objects of the nested iteration.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ~OperatorBase()

virtual Algorithms::OperatorBase::~OperatorBase ( )
overridevirtualdefault

The virtual destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ operator()()

virtual void Algorithms::OperatorBase::operator() ( AnyData out,
const AnyData in 
)
pure virtual

The actual operation, which is implemented in a derived class.

Implemented in Algorithms::ThetaTimestepping< VectorType >, and Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >.

◆ notify()

void Algorithms::OperatorBase::notify ( const Event e)
virtual

Register an event triggered by an outer iteration.

Reimplemented in Algorithms::ThetaTimestepping< VectorType >, and Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >.

Definition at line 41 of file operator.cc.

◆ clear_events()

void Algorithms::OperatorBase::clear_events ( )

Clear all notifications.

Definition at line 49 of file operator.cc.

Member Data Documentation

◆ notifications

Event Algorithms::OperatorBase::notifications
protected

Accumulate events here. If any of those is set, the function solve() of a terminal application must take care of reassembling the matrix.
