SinNeumannBC
Imposes a time-varying flux boundary condition , where varies from an given initial value at time to a given final value over a specified duration.
Description
SinNeumannBC
is an IntegratedBC
which imposes a time-varying flux of the form
where and are the initial and final values of , respectively, and is the final time. These values are controlled by the initial
, final
, and duration
parameters, respectively. The value is applied on one or more sidesets specified by the boundary
parameter and does not vary in space. This type of boundary condition is applicable to time-varying PDEs, for example:
and is frequently used to "ramp" a difficult boundary condition to its final value over a short time interval, rather than imposing it instantaneously at time . This approach can make nonlinear solvers more robust by improving the initial guess used by the Newton iterations, as well as preventing the solver from converging to non-physical solutions in nonlinear PDEs.
