[deal.II] imposing symmetric boundary conditions on the axis of symmetry of a 2D domain

2017-03-26 Thread tzgong15s
Dear all, Recently I'm working on the phase-field simulation of dendritic growth by deal.II and I want to make the simulation carried out on only half of the domain due to the symmetry of the problem with respect to the vertical axis to improve computational efficiency. So how to impose su

Hi Timo, Thanks for your help. I have presented the formulations for time-dependent NS equations in the way you have done in step-57. Is it reasonable or you have a better suggestion? Thanks very much for your advices and help.

Hi Daniel, Thanks for your prompt help. I'm trying to solve the instationary incompressible Navier-Stokes equations at not very high Reynolds number(~100). It seems that this kind of fluid should be described by Navier-Stokes flow instead of Stokes flow(Re<<1)[1]. The "Vector-Valued" m

Franco, You are right that there is no matrix assembler class that accepts an AnyData object. I have seen that MeshWorker with the MatrixSimple assembler has an > initialize member that needs a vector of matrices. However that isn't > really good for my case, as I'd like to assign ownership of
