Detailed Description

template<typename VectorType>
class Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >

Operator class performing Newton's iteration with standard step size control and adaptive matrix generation.

This class performs a Newton iteration up to convergence determined by control. If after an update the norm of the residual has become larger, then step size control is activated and the update is subsequently divided by two until the residual actually becomes smaller (or the minimal scaling factor determined by n_stepsize_iterations is reached).

Since assembling matrices, depending on the implementation, tends to be costly, this method applies an adaptive reassembling strategy. Only if the reduction factor for the residual is more than threshold, the event Algorithms::bad_derivative is submitted to inverse_derivative. It is up to this object to implement reassembling accordingly.

Contents of the AnyData objects

The only value used by the Newton method is the first vector in the parameter out of operator()(). It serves as the start vector of Newton's method and in the end contains the solution. All other vectors of out are ignored by Newton's method and its inner Operator objects. All vectors of in are forwarded to the inner Operator objects, with additional information added as follows.

When calling (*residual)(), the AnyData in given to the Newton iteration is prepended by a vector "Newton iterate", the current value of the Newton iterate, which can be used to evaluate the residual at this point.

For the call to (*inverse_derivative), the vector "Newton residual" is inserted before "Newton iterate".

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Newton()

template<typename VectorType >
Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::Newton ( OperatorBase residual,
OperatorBase inverse_derivative 
)

Constructor, receiving the applications computing the residual and solving the linear problem, respectively.

Member Function Documentation

◆ declare_parameters()

template<typename VectorType >
static void Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::declare_parameters ( ParameterHandler param)
static

Declare the parameters applicable to Newton's method.

◆ parse_parameters()

template<typename VectorType >
void Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::parse_parameters ( ParameterHandler param)

Read the parameters in the ParameterHandler.

◆ initialize()

template<typename VectorType >
void Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::initialize ( OutputOperator< VectorType > &  output)

Initialize the pointer data_out for debugging.

◆ operator()()

template<typename VectorType >
virtual void Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::operator() ( AnyData out,
const AnyData in 
)
overridevirtual

The actual Newton iteration. The initial value is in out(0), which also contains the result after convergence. Values in in are not used by Newton, but will be handed down to the objects residual and inverse_derivative.

Implements Algorithms::OperatorBase.

◆ notify()

template<typename VectorType >
virtual void Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::notify ( const Event e)
overridevirtual

Register an event triggered by an outer iteration.

Reimplemented from Algorithms::OperatorBase.

◆ threshold()

template<typename VectorType >
double Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::threshold ( double  new_value)

Set the maximal residual reduction allowed without triggering assembling in the next step. Return the previous value.

Member Data Documentation

◆ control

template<typename VectorType >
ReductionControl Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::control

Control object for the Newton iteration.

Definition at line 123 of file newton.h.

◆ residual

template<typename VectorType >
SmartPointer<OperatorBase, Newton<VectorType> > Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::residual
private

The operator computing the residual.

Definition at line 129 of file newton.h.

◆ inverse_derivative

template<typename VectorType >
SmartPointer<OperatorBase, Newton<VectorType> > Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::inverse_derivative
private

The operator applying the inverse derivative to the residual.

Definition at line 134 of file newton.h.

◆ data_out

template<typename VectorType >
SmartPointer<OutputOperator<VectorType>, Newton<VectorType> > Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::data_out
private

The operator handling the output in case the debug_vectors is true. Call the initialize function first.

Definition at line 140 of file newton.h.

◆ assemble_now

template<typename VectorType >
bool Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::assemble_now
private

This flag is set by the function assemble(), indicating that the matrix must be assembled anew upon start.

Definition at line 146 of file newton.h.

◆ n_stepsize_iterations

template<typename VectorType >
unsigned int Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::n_stepsize_iterations
private

A flag used to decide how many stepsize iteration should be made. Default is the original value of 21.

Enter zero here to turn off stepsize control.

Note
Controlled by Stepsize iterations in parameter file

Definition at line 156 of file newton.h.

◆ assemble_threshold

template<typename VectorType >
double Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::assemble_threshold
private

Threshold for re-assembling matrix.

If the quotient of two consecutive residuals is smaller than this threshold, the system matrix is not assembled in this step.

Note
This parameter should be adjusted to the residual gain of the inner solver.

The default values is zero, resulting in reassembling in every Newton step.

Definition at line 170 of file newton.h.

◆ debug_vectors

template<typename VectorType >
bool Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::debug_vectors

Print residual, update and updated solution after each step into file Newton_NNN?

Definition at line 177 of file newton.h.

◆ debug

template<typename VectorType >
unsigned int Algorithms::Newton< VectorType >::debug

Write debug output to deallog; the higher the number, the more output.

Definition at line 182 of file newton.h.
