OOF2: The Manual

Name

None (NoNonlinearSolver) — Use linear equation solvers.

Synopsis

NoNonlinearSolver()

Details

Description

NoNonlinearSolver is the trivial NonlinearSolverBase. When selecting a solver in AdvancedSolverMode, specifying NoNonlinearSolver as the nonlinear_solver parameter will cause OOF2 to assume that the SubProblem is linear.

Selecting NoNonlinearSolver for a nonlinear SubProblem will lead to unpredictable results. An explicit time stepper, such as ForwardEuler or RK4 will still work, but other steppers will be unreliable. Static solutions will be incorrect.

In BasicSolverMode, NoNonlinearSolver is used automatically for linear problems.
