ArrayConstantIC

Sets constant component values for an array field variable.

All the components of the array variable must be specified simultaneously. This constant value may be set for the whole domain, for particular blocks, or on specified boundaries.

Example input syntax

In this example, constant initial conditions are set for array variable u and auxiliary array variable v of size 2 and 8 respectively.

[ICs]
  [uic]
    type = ArrayConstantIC
    variable = u
    value = '0.1 3'
  []
  [vic]
    type = ArrayConstantIC
    variable = v
    value = '2 6 9 7 1.1 2 5 4'
  []
[]

  • variableThe variable this initial condition is supposed to provide values for.

    C++ Type:VariableName

    Controllable:No

    Description:The variable this initial condition is supposed to provide values for.

Required Parameters

    C++ Type:std::vector<std::string>

    Controllable:No

    Description:Adds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.

  • enableTrueSet the enabled status of the MooseObject.

    Default:True

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:No

    Description:Set the enabled status of the MooseObject.

  • ignore_uo_dependencyFalseWhen set to true, a UserObject retrieved by this IC will not be executed before the this IC

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:No

    Description:When set to true, a UserObject retrieved by this IC will not be executed before the this IC
