limiter

discontinuous Galerkin slope limiter

Synopsis

template <class T, class M>
field_basic<T,M>
limiter (
   const field_basic<T,M>& uh,
   const T&                bar_g_S = 1.0,
   const limiter_option&   opt = limiter_option());

Description

This function returns a slope limited field for any supplied discontinuous approximation.

    geo omega ("square");
    space Xh (omega, "P1d");
    field uh (Xh);
    ...
    field vh = limiter(uh);

It implements the minmod_TVB limiter for hyperbolic nonlinear problems approximated by discontinuous Galerkin methods. See the User's guide for details and examples.

Options

struct limiter_option {
  bool active; 
  Float theta; // > 1, see Coc-1998, P. 209
  Float M;     // M=max|u''(t=0)(x)| at x where u'(t)(x)=0 :extremas
  limiter_option() : active(true), theta(1.5), M(1) {}
};
