Use AutoDiff Assembly#

Use AutoDiff Assembly = {yes | no}

Description / Usage#

yes

AutoDiff is used to compute the Jacobian’s for supported BCs and equations. Currently this is quite limited but can be combined with non-autodiff equations.

no

AutoDiff is not used

Default: no

Examples#

Following is a sample card:

Use AutoDiff Assembly = yes

Technical Discussion#

Some formulations are quite complicated to compute Jacobian’s by hand so only have AutoDiff routines. Mostly this is for fully-stabilized viscoelastic flow using the SQRT_CONF formulation.

Requires Goma to be built with Sacado from Trilinos.
