TSSetSolutionFunction

Provide a function that computes the solution of the ODE or DAE

Synopsis

#include "petscts.h"  
PetscErrorCode TSSetSolutionFunction(TS ts, TSSolutionFn *f, void *ctx)

Logically Collective

Input Parameters

• ts - the TS context obtained from TSCreate()

• f - routine for evaluating the solution

• ctx - [optional] user-defined context for private data for the function evaluation routine (may be NULL)

Options Database Keys

• -ts_monitor_lg_error - create a graphical monitor of error history, requires user to have provided TSSetSolutionFunction()

• -ts_monitor_draw_error - Monitor error graphically, requires user to have provided TSSetSolutionFunction()

Notes

This routine is used for testing accuracy of time integration schemes when you already know the solution. If analytic solutions are not known for your system, consider using the Method of Manufactured Solutions to create closed-form solutions with non-physical forcing terms.

For low-dimensional problems solved in serial, such as small discrete systems, TSMonitorLGError() can be used to monitor the error history.
