Detailed Description

template<int dim>
class aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >

SimulatorAccess is a base class for different plugins like postprocessors. It provides access to the various variables of the main class that plugins may want to use in their evaluations, such as solution vectors, the current time, time step sizes, material models, or the triangulations and DoFHandlers that correspond to solutions.

This class is the interface between plugins and the main simulator class. Using this insulation layer, the plugins need not know anything about the internal details of the simulation class.

Every Postprocessor is required to derive from SimulatorAccess. It is optional for other plugins like MaterialModel, GravityModel, etc..

Since the functions providing access to details of the simulator class are meant to be used only by derived classes of this class (rather than becoming part of the public interface of these classes), the functions of this class are made protected.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

§ SimulatorAccess() [1/2]

template<int dim>
aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::SimulatorAccess ( )

Default constructor. Initialize the SimulatorAccess object without a reference to a particular Simulator object. You will later have to call initialize() to provide this reference to the Simulator object.

§ SimulatorAccess() [2/2]

template<int dim>
aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::SimulatorAccess ( const Simulator< dim > &  simulator_object)

Create a SimulatorAccess object that is already initialized for a particular Simulator.

§ ~SimulatorAccess()

template<int dim>
virtual aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::~SimulatorAccess ( )
virtualdefault

Destructor. Does nothing but is virtual so that derived classes destructors are also virtual.

Member Function Documentation

§ initialize_simulator()

template<int dim>
virtual void aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::initialize_simulator ( const Simulator< dim > &  simulator_object)
virtual

Initialize this class for a given simulator. This function is marked as virtual so that derived classes can do something upon initialization as well, for example look up and cache data; derived classes should call this function from the base class as well, however.

Parameters
simulator_objectA reference to the main simulator object.

Reimplemented in aspect::MeltHandler< dim >, and aspect::TimeStepping::Manager< dim >.

§ introspection()

template<int dim>
const Introspection<dim>& aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::introspection ( ) const

Return a reference to an introspection object that describes overall properties of the simulator. In particular, it provides symbolic names for extractors and component masks for each variable, etc, and thereby reduces the need for implicit knowledge throughout the code base.

§ get_simulator()

template<int dim>
const Simulator<dim>& aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_simulator ( ) const

Return a reference to the Simulator itself. Note that you can not access any members or functions of the Simulator. This function exists so that any class with SimulatorAccess can create other objects with SimulatorAccess (because initializing them requires a reference to the Simulator).

§ get_parameters()

template<int dim>
const Parameters<dim>& aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_parameters ( ) const

Return a reference to the parameters object that describes all run-time parameters used in the current simulation.

§ get_signals()

template<int dim>
SimulatorSignals<dim>& aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_signals ( ) const

Get Access to the structure containing the signals of the simulator.

§ get_mpi_communicator()

template<int dim>
MPI_Comm aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_mpi_communicator ( ) const

Return the MPI communicator for this simulation.

§ get_computing_timer()

template<int dim>
TimerOutput& aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_computing_timer ( ) const

Return the timer object for this simulation. Since the timer is mutable in the Simulator class, this allows plugins to define their own sections in the timer to measure the time spent in sections of their code.

§ get_pcout()

template<int dim>
const ConditionalOStream& aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_pcout ( ) const

Return a reference to the stream object that only outputs something on one processor in a parallel program and simply ignores output put into it on all other processors.

§ get_time()

template<int dim>
double aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_time ( ) const

Return the current simulation time in seconds.

§ get_timestep()

template<int dim>
double aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_timestep ( ) const

Return the size of the current time step.

§ get_old_timestep()

template<int dim>
double aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_old_timestep ( ) const

Return the size of the last time step.

§ get_timestep_number()

template<int dim>
unsigned int aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_timestep_number ( ) const

Return the current number of a time step.

§ get_nonlinear_iteration()

template<int dim>
unsigned int aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_nonlinear_iteration ( ) const

Return the current nonlinear iteration number of a time step.

§ get_triangulation()

template<int dim>
const parallel::distributed::Triangulation<dim>& aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_triangulation ( ) const

Return a reference to the triangulation in use by the simulator object.

§ get_volume()

template<int dim>
double aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_volume ( ) const

Return the global volume of the computational domain.

§ get_mapping()

template<int dim>
const Mapping<dim>& aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_mapping ( ) const

Return a reference to the mapping used to describe the boundary of the domain.

§ get_output_directory()

template<int dim>
std::string aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_output_directory ( ) const

Return the directory specified in the input parameter file to be the place where output files are to be placed. The string is terminated by a directory separator (i.e., '/').

§ include_adiabatic_heating()

template<int dim>
bool aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::include_adiabatic_heating ( ) const

Return whether we use the adiabatic heating term.

§ include_latent_heat()

template<int dim>
bool aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::include_latent_heat ( ) const

Return whether we use the latent heat term.

§ include_melt_transport()

template<int dim>
bool aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::include_melt_transport ( ) const

Return whether we solve the equations for melt transport.

§ get_stokes_velocity_degree()

template<int dim>
int aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_stokes_velocity_degree ( ) const

Return the stokes velocity degree.

§ get_adiabatic_surface_temperature()

template<int dim>
double aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_adiabatic_surface_temperature ( ) const

Return the adiabatic surface temperature.

§ get_surface_pressure()

template<int dim>
double aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_surface_pressure ( ) const

Return the adiabatic surface pressure.

§ convert_output_to_years()

template<int dim>
bool aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::convert_output_to_years ( ) const

Return whether things like velocities should be converted from the seconds in the MKS system to years. The value of this flag is set by the corresponding entry in the input parameter file.

§ get_pre_refinement_step()

template<int dim>
unsigned int aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_pre_refinement_step ( ) const

Return the number of the current pre refinement step. This can be useful for plugins that want to function differently in the initial adaptive refinements and later on. This will be not initialized before Simulator<dim>::run() is called. It iterates upward from 0 to parameters.initial_adaptive_refinement during the initial adaptive refinement steps, and equals std::numeric_limits<unsigned int>::max() afterwards.

§ n_compositional_fields()

template<int dim>
unsigned int aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::n_compositional_fields ( ) const

Return the number of compositional fields specified in the input parameter file that will be advected along with the flow field.

§ get_refinement_criteria()

template<int dim>
void aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_refinement_criteria ( Vector< float > &  estimated_error_per_cell) const

Compute the error indicators in the same way they are normally used for mesh refinement. The mesh is not refined when doing so, but the indicators can be used when generating graphical output to check why mesh refinement is proceeding as it is.

§ get_artificial_viscosity()

template<int dim>
void aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_artificial_viscosity ( Vector< float > &  viscosity_per_cell,
const bool  skip_interior_cells = false 
) const

Returns the entropy viscosity on each locally owned cell as it is used to stabilize the temperature equation.

Parameters
viscosity_per_cellOutput vector with as many entries as active cells. Each entry corresponding to a locally owned active cell index will contain the artificial viscosity for this cell.
skip_interior_cellsA boolean flag. If set to true the function will only compute the artificial viscosity in cells at boundaries.

§ get_artificial_viscosity_composition()

template<int dim>
void aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::get_artificial_viscosity_composition ( Vector< float > &  viscosity_per_cell,
const unsigned int  compositional_variable 
) const

Returns the entropy viscosity on each locally owned cell as it is used to stabilize the composition equation.

§ get_current_linearization_point()

Return a reference to the manager of the initial temperature models. This can then, for example, be used to get the names of the initial temperature models used in a computation, or to compute the initial temperature for a given position.

While the Simulator class creates a shared pointer to an initial temperature manager before the first time step, it releases the pointer once it no longer needs access to the initial compositions. As a consequence, you can only call this function during the first time step.

If the Simulator's shared pointer were the only one that points to the initial temperature manager object, that would also destroy the object pointed to. However, plugin classes can have member variables that are also shared pointers to these manager objects, and if you initialize such a shared pointer from the result of this function – typically in the initialize() function of a plugin class – then the Simulator giving up its shared pointer does not actually destroy the manager object but extends its lifetime until the last plugin that has a pointer to it is destroyed itself. As a consequence, if you need access to the initial temperature in a plugin, you will need to keep a shared pointer to it around for as long as you need it.

§ get_initial_temperature_manager()

While the Simulator class creates a shared pointer to an initial temperature manager before the first time step, it releases the pointer once it no longer needs access to the initial temperature. As a consequence, you can only call this function during the first time step. If a plugin needs access to the initial temperature at a later time, it has to store its own shared pointer to that object, and that is what can be achieved using the get_initial_temperature_manager_pointer() function above.

§ simulator_is_past_initialization()

template<int dim>
bool aspect::SimulatorAccess< dim >::simulator_is_past_initialization ( ) const

Return whether the Simulator object has been completely initialized and has started to run its time stepping loop.

This function is useful to determine in a plugin whether some of the information one can query about the Simulator can be trusted because it has already been set up completely. For example, while the Simulator is being set up, plugins may already have access to it via the current SimulatorAccess object, but data such as the current time, the time step number, etc, may all still be in a state that is not reliable since it may not have been initialized at that time. (As an example, at the very beginning of the Simulator object's existence, the time step number is set to numbers::invalid_unsigned_int, and only when the time step loop is started is it set to a valid value). Similar examples are that at some point the Simulator sets the solution vector to the correct size, but only at a later time (though before the time stepping starts), the contents of the solution vector are set based on the initial conditions specified in the input file.

Only when this function returns true is all of the information returned by the SimulatorAccess object reliable and correct.

Note
This function returns true starting with the moment where the Simulator starts the time stepping loop. However, it may temporarily revert to returning false if, for example, the Simulator does the initial mesh refinement steps where it starts the time loop, but then goes back to initialization steps (mesh refinement, interpolation of initial conditions, etc.) before re-starting the time loop.
