Detailed Description

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

Application class performing the theta timestepping scheme.

The theta scheme is an abstraction of implicit and explicit Euler schemes, the Crank-Nicolson scheme and linear combinations of those. The choice of the actual scheme is controlled by the parameter theta as follows.

For fixed theta, the Crank-Nicolson scheme is the only second order scheme. Nevertheless, further stability may be achieved by choosing theta larger than ½, thereby introducing a first order error term. In order to avoid a loss of convergence order, the adaptive theta scheme can be used, where theta=½+c dt.

Assume that we want to solve the equation u' + F(u) = 0 with a step size k. A step of the theta scheme can be written as

\[ M u_{n+1} + \theta k F(u_{n+1}) = M u_n - (1-\theta)k F(u_n). \]

Here, M is the mass matrix. We see, that the right hand side amounts to an explicit Euler step with modified step size in weak form (up to inversion of M). The left hand side corresponds to an implicit Euler step with modified step size (right hand side given). Thus, the implementation of the theta scheme will use two Operator objects, one for the explicit, one for the implicit part. Each of these will use its own TimestepData to account for the modified step sizes (and different times if the problem is not autonomous). Note that once the explicit part has been computed, the left hand side actually constitutes a linear or nonlinear system which has to be solved.

Usage AnyData

ThetaTimestepping uses AnyData for communicating vectors and time step information. With outer or inner Operator objects. It does not use itself the input vectors provided, but forwards them to the explicit and implicit operators.

Vector data

The explicit Operator op_explicit receives in its input in first place the vector "Previous iterate", which is the solution value after the previous timestep. It is followed by all vectors provided to ThetaTimestepping::operator() as input argument. op_explicit is supposed to write its result into the first position of its output argument, labeled "Result".

The implicit Operator op_implicit receives the result of op_explicit in its first input vector labeled "Previous time". It is followed by all vectors provided to ThetaTimestepping::operator() as input argument. The output of op_implicit is directly written into the output argument given to ThetaTimestepping.

Scalar data

Since the introduction of AnyData, ThetaTimestepping is able to communicate the current time step information through AnyData as well. Therefore, the AnyData objects handed as input to op_explicit and op_implicit contain two entries of type const double* named "Time" and "Timestep". Note that "Time" refers to the time at the beginning of the current step for op_explicit and at the end for op_implicit, respectively.

Usage of ThetaTimestepping

The use ThetaTimestepping is more complicated than for instance Newton, since the inner operators will usually need to access the TimeStepData. Thus, we have a circular dependency of information, and we include the following example for its use.

First, we define the two operators used by ThetaTimestepping and call them Implicit and Explicit. They both share the public interface of Operator, and additionally provide storage for the matrices to be used and a pointer to TimestepData. Note that we do not use a SmartPointer here, since the TimestepData will be destroyed before the operator.

class Explicit : public OperatorBase
{
public:
Explicit(const FullMatrix<double> &matrix);
void operator()(AnyData &out, const AnyData &in);
private:
};
class Implicit : public OperatorBase
{
public:
Implicit(const FullMatrix<double> &matrix);
void operator()(AnyData &out, const AnyData &in);
private:
};

These operators will be implemented after the main program. But let us look first at how they get used. First, let us define a matrix to be used for our system and also an OutputOperator in order to write the data of each timestep to a file.

int main()
{
FullMatrix<double> matrix(2);
matrix(0, 0) = 0.;
matrix(1, 1) = 0.;
matrix(0, 1) = 3.14;
matrix(1, 0) = -3.14;
out.initialize_stream(std::cout);
void initialize_stream(std::ostream &stream)

Now we create objects for the implicit and explicit parts of the steps as well as the ThetaTimestepping itself. We initialize the timestepping with the output operator in order to be able to see the output in every step.

Explicit op_explicit(matrix);
Implicit op_implicit(matrix);
solver.set_output(out);
SmartPointer< OperatorBase, ThetaTimestepping< VectorType > > op_implicit
SmartPointer< OperatorBase, ThetaTimestepping< VectorType > > op_explicit

The next step is providing the vectors to be used. value is filled with the initial value and is also the vector where the solution at each timestep will be. Because the interface of Operator has to be able to handle several vectors, we need to store it in an AnyData object. Since our problem has no additional parameters, the input AnyData object remains empty.

Vector<double> value(2);
value(0) = 1.;
AnyData indata;
AnyData outdata;
outdata.add(&value, "value");
void add(type entry, const std::string &name)
Add a new data object.
Definition any_data.h:432

Finally, we are ready to tell the solver, that we are starting at the initial timestep and run it.

solver.notify(Events::initial);
solver(outdata, indata);
}
const Event initial
Definition event.cc:65

Besides the main function, we need to define the members functions of the implicit and explicit operators. First the constructor, which simply copies the system matrix into the member pointer for later use.

Explicit::Explicit(const FullMatrix<double> &M)
: matrix(&M)
{
m.reinit(M.m(), M.n());
}
size_type n() const
size_type m() const

Now we need to study the application of the implicit and explicit operator. We assume that the pointer matrix points to the matrix created in the main program (the constructor did this for us). Here, we first get the time step size from the AnyData object that was provided as input. Then, if we are in the first step or if the timestep has changed, we fill the local matrix \(m\), such that with the given matrix \(M\), it becomes

\[ m = I - \Delta t M. \]

After we have worked off the notifications, we clear them, such that the matrix is only generated when necessary.

void Explicit::operator()(AnyData &out, const AnyData &in)
{
const double timestep = *in.read_ptr<double>("Timestep");
{
m.equ(-timestep, *matrix);
for (unsigned int i = 0; i < m.m(); ++i)
m(i, i) += 1.;
}
bool test(const Event &event) const
Definition event.h:186
const type * read_ptr(const std::string &name) const
Dedicated read only access by name for pointer data.
Definition any_data.h:385
const Event new_timestep_size
Definition event.cc:69

Now we multiply the input vector with the new matrix and store on output.

m.vmult(*out.entry<Vector<double> *>(0),
*in.read_ptr<Vector<double>>("Previous iterate"));
}
type entry(const std::string &name)
Access to stored data object by name.
Definition any_data.h:351

The code for the implicit operator is almost the same, except that we change the sign in front of the timestep and use the inverse of the matrix.

Implicit::Implicit(const FullMatrix<double> &M)
: matrix(&M)
{
m.reinit(M.m(), M.n());
}
void Implicit::operator()(AnyData &out, const AnyData &in)
{
const double timestep = *in.read_ptr<double>("Timestep");
if (this->notifications.test(Events::initial) ||
this->notifications.test(Events::new_timestep_size))
{
m.equ(timestep, *matrix);
for (unsigned int i = 0; i < m.m(); ++i)
m(i, i) += 1.;
m.gauss_jordan();
}
this->notifications.clear();
m.vmult(*out.entry<Vector<double> *>(0),
*in.read_ptr<Vector<double>>("Previous time"));
}

const unsigned int  version 
)
inlineinherited

Read or write the data of this object to or from a stream for the purpose of serialization using the BOOST serialization library.

This function does not actually serialize any of the member variables of this class. The reason is that what this class stores is only who subscribes to this object, but who does so at the time of storing the contents of this object does not necessarily have anything to do with who subscribes to the object when it is restored. Consequently, we do not want to overwrite the subscribers at the time of restoring, and then there is no reason to write the subscribers out in the first place.

Definition at line 309 of file subscriptor.h.

◆ check_no_subscribers()

void Subscriptor::check_no_subscribers ( ) const
privatenoexceptinherited

Check that there are no objects subscribing to this object. If this check passes then it is safe to destroy the current object. It this check fails then this function will either abort or print an error message to deallog (by using the AssertNothrow mechanism), but will not throw an exception.

Note
Since this function is just a consistency check it does nothing in release mode.
If this function is called when there is an uncaught exception then, rather than aborting, this function prints an error message to the standard error stream and returns.
