OOF2: The Manual
Name
StepDriver — How to use time steps: dynamically or not at all.
Subclasses
Subclasses are listed as they appear in the GUI and (in parentheses) as they appear in scripts.
-
Static (
StaticDriver
) -- Solve a subproblem as a static or quasi-static system. -
Adaptive (
AdaptiveDriver
) -- Take variable sized timesteps. -
Uniform (
UniformDriver
) -- Take fixed, uniform timesteps.
Description
StepDriver
objects are the
time_stepper
argument for AdvancedSolverMode. They specify how
multiple time step are to be combined into a full time evolution
calculation. In this context, “multiple” means zero or
more, since one if the StepDrivers
is StaticDriver, which solves static
equations with no time steps.
StepDriver
and BasicStepDriver have the same types of
subclasses, but the subclasses of StepDriver
offer more customization via more complex parameters.
