In this case, I would still call
VectorTools::interpolate_boundary_values(move_dof_handler, 106, move_boundary_values_function, move_boundary_values_update); and add to the previous vector for (auto& it=move_boundary_values.begin(); it!=move_boundary_values.end(); ++it) it->second += move_boundary_values_update[it->first]; Since move_boundary_values are also just the boundary values for your previous solution, you could also compute move_boundary_values on the fly by extracting the boundary DoFs using DoFTools::extract_boundary_dofs <https://www.dealii.org/8.5.1/doxygen/deal.II/namespaceDoFTools.html#ad3067f335a97de429176178689222f3a> and accessing the respective values in the solution vector, i.e. for (const IndexSet::ElementIterator& it=boundary_dofs.begin(); it!=boundary_dofs.end(); ++it) move_boundary_values[*it] = solution(*it) + move_boundary_values_update[*it]; This is also the approach you would need to use if you want to refine your mesh between time steps. All of this would of course be much simpler if your Function class would simply return the actual values and not just an update.
