oomph::GeneralisedTimeStepper Class Reference

Generalised timestepper that can serve a variety of purposes in continuation, bifurcation detection and periodic-orbit computations. The key generalisation is that more than one of the entries is actually a degree of freedom in the problem. These are distinct from our standard (implict) Timesteppers in which the only dof is the current value (first entry in the storage scheme). These objects will typically be used to replace exisiting timesteppers for specific tasks. More...

Detailed Description

Generalised timestepper that can serve a variety of purposes in continuation, bifurcation detection and periodic-orbit computations. The key generalisation is that more than one of the entries is actually a degree of freedom in the problem. These are distinct from our standard (implict) Timesteppers in which the only dof is the current value (first entry in the storage scheme). These objects will typically be used to replace exisiting timesteppers for specific tasks.
