nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_keller (d03pr) integrates a system of linear or nonlinear, first-order, time-dependent partial differential equations (PDEs) in one space variable, with scope for coupled ordinary differential equations (ODEs), and automatic adaptive spatial remeshing. The spatial discretization is performed using the Keller box scheme (see Keller (1970)) and the method of lines is employed to reduce the PDEs to a system of ODEs. The resulting system is solved using a Backward Differentiation Formula (BDF) method or a Theta method (switching between Newton's method and functional iteration).

Description

nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_keller (d03pr) integrates the system of first-order PDEs and coupled ODEs given by the master equations:

G_{i} (x, t, U, U_{x}, U_{t}, V, \dot{V}) = 0, i = 1, 2, \dots, npde, a \leq x \leq b, t \geq t_{0},

(1)

R_{i} (t, V, \dot{V}, ξ, U^{*}, U_{x}^{*}, U_{t}^{*}) = 0, i = 1, 2, \dots, ncode .

(2)

In the PDE part of the problem given by (1), the functions

G_{i}

must have the general form

G_{i} = \sum_{j = 1}^{npde} P_{i, j} \frac{\partial U_{j}}{\partial t} + \sum_{j = 1}^{ncode} Q_{i, j} {\dot{V}}_{j} + S_{i} = 0, i = 1, 2, \dots, npde,

(3)

where

P_{i, j}

Q_{i, j}

and

S_{i}

depend on

x

t

U

U_{x}

and

V

The vector

U

is the set of PDE solution values

U (x, t) = {[U_{1} (x, t), \dots, U_{npde} (x, t)]}^{T},

and the vector

U_{x}

is the partial derivative with respect to

x

. The vector

V

is the set of ODE solution values

V (t) = {[V_{1} (t), \dots, V_{ncode} (t)]}^{T},

and

\dot{V}

denotes its derivative with respect to time.

In the ODE part given by (2),

ξ

represents a vector of

n_{ξ}

spatial coupling points at which the ODEs are coupled to the PDEs. These points may or may not be equal to some of the PDE spatial mesh points.

U^{*}

U_{x}^{*}

and

U_{t}^{*}

are the functions

U

U_{x}

and

U_{t}

evaluated at these coupling points. Each

R_{i}

may only depend linearly on time derivatives. Hence equation (2) may be written more precisely as

R = A - B \dot{V} - C U_{t}^{*},

(4)

where

R = {[R_{1}, \dots, R_{ncode}]}^{T}

A

is a vector of length ncode,

B

is an ncode by ncode matrix,

C

is an ncode by

(n_{ξ} \times npde)

matrix and the entries in

A

B

and

C

may depend on

t

ξ

U^{*}

U_{x}^{*}

and

V

. In practice you only need to supply a vector of information to define the ODEs and not the matrices

B

and

C

. (See Arguments for the specification of odedef.)

The integration in time is from

t_{0}

t_{out}

, over the space interval

a \leq x \leq b

, where

a = x_{1}

and

b = x_{npts}

are the leftmost and rightmost points of a mesh

x_{1}, x_{2}, \dots, x_{npts}

defined initially by you and (possibly) adapted automatically during the integration according to user-specified criteria.

The PDE system which is defined by the functions

G_{i}

must be specified in pdedef.

The initial

(t = t_{0})

values of the functions

U (x, t)

and

V (t)

must be specified in uvinit. Note that uvinit will be called again following any remeshing, and so

U (x, t_{0})

should be specified for all values of

x

in the interval

a \leq x \leq b

, and not just the initial mesh points.

For a first-order system of PDEs, only one boundary condition is required for each PDE component

U_{i}

. The npde boundary conditions are separated into

n_{a}

at the left-hand boundary

x = a

, and

n_{b}

at the right-hand boundary

x = b

, such that

n_{a} + n_{b} = npde

. The position of the boundary condition for each component should be chosen with care; the general rule is that if the characteristic direction of

U_{i}

at the left-hand boundary (say) points into the interior of the solution domain, then the boundary condition for

U_{i}

should be specified at the left-hand boundary. Incorrect positioning of boundary conditions generally results in initialization or integration difficulties in the underlying time integration functions.

The boundary conditions have the master equation form:

G_{i}^{L} (x, t, U, U_{t}, V, \dot{V}) = 0 at ​ x = a, i = 1, 2, \dots, n_{a},

(5)

at the left-hand boundary, and

G_{i}^{R} (x, t, U, U_{t}, V, \dot{V}) = 0 at ​ x = b, i = 1, 2, \dots, n_{b},

(6)

at the right-hand boundary.

Note that the functions

G_{i}^{L}

and

G_{i}^{R}

must not depend on

U_{x}

, since spatial derivatives are not determined explicitly in the Keller box scheme functions. If the problem involves derivative (Neumann) boundary conditions then it is generally possible to restate such boundary conditions in terms of permissible variables. Also note that

G_{i}^{L}

and

G_{i}^{R}

must be linear with respect to time derivatives, so that the boundary conditions have the general form:

\sum_{j = 1}^{npde} E_{i, j}^{L} \frac{\partial U_{j}}{\partial t} + \sum_{j = 1}^{ncode} H_{i, j}^{L} {\dot{V}}_{j} + K_{i}^{L} = 0, i = 1, 2, \dots, n_{a},

(7)

at the left-hand boundary, and

\sum_{j = 1}^{npde} E_{i, j}^{R} \frac{\partial U_{j}}{\partial t} + \sum_{j = 1}^{ncode} H_{i, j}^{R} {\dot{V}}_{j} + K_{i}^{R} = 0, i = 1, 2, \dots, n_{b},

(8)

at the right-hand boundary, where

E_{i, j}^{L}

E_{i, j}^{R}

H_{i, j}^{L}

H_{i, j}^{R}

K_{i}^{L}

and

K_{i}^{R}

depend on

x, t, U

and

V

only.

The boundary conditions must be specified in bndary.

The problem is subject to the following restrictions:

(i)	$P_{i, j}$ , $Q_{i, j}$ and $S_{i}$ must not depend on any time derivatives;
(ii)	$t_{0} < t_{out}$ , so that integration is in the forward direction;
(iii)	The evaluation of the function $G_{i}$ is done approximately at the mid-points of the mesh $x (i)$ , for $i = 1, 2, \dots, npts$ , by calling pdedef for each mid-point in turn. Any discontinuities in the function must therefore be at one or more of the fixed mesh points specified by xfix;
(iv)	At least one of the functions $P_{i, j}$ must be nonzero so that there is a time derivative present in the PDE problem.

The algebraic-differential equation system which is defined by the functions

R_{i}

must be specified in odedef. You must also specify the coupling points

ξ

in the array xi.

The first-order equations are approximated by a system of ODEs in time for the values of

U_{i}

at mesh points. In this method of lines approach the Keller box scheme is applied to each PDE in the space variable only, resulting in a system of ODEs in time for the values of

U_{i}

at each mesh point. In total there are

npde \times npts + ncode

ODEs in time direction. This system is then integrated forwards in time using a Backward Differentiation Formula (BDF) or a Theta method.

The adaptive space remeshing can be used to generate meshes that automatically follow the changing time-dependent nature of the solution, generally resulting in a more efficient and accurate solution using fewer mesh points than may be necessary with a fixed uniform or non-uniform mesh. Problems with travelling wavefronts or variable-width boundary layers for example will benefit from using a moving adaptive mesh. The discrete time-step method used here (developed by Furzeland (1984)) automatically creates a new mesh based on the current solution profile at certain time-steps, and the solution is then interpolated onto the new mesh and the integration continues.

The method requires you to supply monitf which specifies in an analytic or numeric form the particular aspect of the solution behaviour you wish to track. This so-called monitor function is used to choose a mesh which equally distributes the integral of the monitor function over the domain. A typical choice of monitor function is the second space derivative of the solution value at each point (or some combination of the second space derivatives if more than one solution component), which results in refinement in regions where the solution gradient is changing most rapidly.

You must specify the frequency of mesh updates along with certain other criteria such as adjacent mesh ratios. Remeshing can be expensive and you are encouraged to experiment with the different options in order to achieve an efficient solution which adequately tracks the desired features of the solution.

Note that unless the monitor function for the initial solution values is zero at all user-specified initial mesh points, a new initial mesh is calculated and adopted according to the user-specified remeshing criteria. uvinit will then be called again to determine the initial solution values at the new mesh points (there is no interpolation at this stage) and the integration proceeds.

A value to indicate the form of the local error test. itol indicates to nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_keller (d03pr) whether to interpret either or both of rtol or atol as a vector or scalar. The error test to be satisfied is

‖e_{i} / w_{i}‖ < 1.0

, where

w_{i}

is defined as follows:

itol	rtol	atol	$w_{i}$
1	scalar	scalar	$rtol (1) \times \|u (i)\| + atol (1)$
2	scalar	vector	$rtol (1) \times \|u (i)\| + atol (i)$
3	vector	scalar	$rtol (i) \times \|u (i)\| + atol (1)$
4	vector	vector	$rtol (i) \times \|u (i)\| + atol (i)$

In the above,

e_{i}

denotes the estimated local error for the

i

th component of the coupled PDE/ODE system in time,

u (i)

, for

i = 1, 2, \dots, neqn

The choice of norm used is defined by the argument norm_p.

$norm_p ='M'$: Maximum norm.
$norm_p ='A'$: Averaged $L_{2}$ norm.

U_{norm}

denotes the norm of the vector u of length neqn, then for the averaged

L_{2}

norm

U_{norm} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{neqn} \sum_{i = 1}^{neqn} {(U (i) / w_{i})}^{2}},

while for the maximum norm

U_{norm} = \max_{i} |u (i) / w_{i}| .

See the description of itol for the formulation of the weight vector

Constraint:

norm_p ='M'

17: $laopt$ – string (length ≥ 1)

The type of matrix algebra required.

$laopt ='F'$: Full matrix methods to be used.
$laopt ='B'$: Banded matrix methods to be used.
$laopt ='S'$: Sparse matrix methods to be used.

Constraint:

laopt ='F'

'B'

'S'

Note: you are recommended to use the banded option when no coupled ODEs are present (i.e.,

ncode = 0

18: $algopt (30)$ – double array

May be set to control various options available in the integrator. If you wish to employ all the default options, then

algopt (1)

should be set to

0.0

. Default values will also be used for any other elements of algopt set to zero. The permissible values, default values, and meanings are as follows:

$algopt (1)$: Selects the ODE integration method to be used. If $algopt (1) = 1.0$ , a BDF method is used and if $algopt (1) = 2.0$ , a Theta method is used. The default value is $algopt (1) = 1.0$ .

algopt (1) = 2.0

, then

algopt (i)

, for

i = 2, 3, 4

, are not used.

$algopt (2)$: Specifies the maximum order of the BDF integration formula to be used. $algopt (2)$ may be $1.0$ , $2.0$ , $3.0$ , $4.0$ or $5.0$ . The default value is $algopt (2) = 5.0$ .
$algopt (3)$: Specifies what method is to be used to solve the system of nonlinear equations arising on each step of the BDF method. If $algopt (3) = 1.0$ a modified Newton iteration is used and if $algopt (3) = 2.0$ a functional iteration method is used. If functional iteration is selected and the integrator encounters difficulty, then there is an automatic switch to the modified Newton iteration. The default value is $algopt (3) = 1.0$ .
$algopt (4)$: Specifies whether or not the Petzold error test is to be employed. The Petzold error test results in extra overhead but is more suitable when algebraic equations are present, such as $P_{i, j} = 0.0$ , for $j = 1, 2, \dots, npde$ , for some $i$ or when there is no ${\dot{V}}_{i} (t)$ dependence in the coupled ODE system. If $algopt (4) = 1.0$ , then the Petzold test is used. If $algopt (4) = 2.0$ , then the Petzold test is not used. The default value is $algopt (4) = 1.0$ .

algopt (1) = 1.0

, then

algopt (i)

, for

i = 5, 6, 7

, are not used.

$algopt (5)$: Specifies the value of Theta to be used in the Theta integration method. $0.51 \leq algopt (5) \leq 0.99$ . The default value is $algopt (5) = 0.55$ .
$algopt (6)$: Specifies what method is to be used to solve the system of nonlinear equations arising on each step of the Theta method. If $algopt (6) = 1.0$ , a modified Newton iteration is used and if $algopt (6) = 2.0$ , a functional iteration method is used. The default value is $algopt (6) = 1.0$ .
$algopt (7)$: Specifies whether or not the integrator is allowed to switch automatically between modified Newton and functional iteration methods in order to be more efficient. If $algopt (7) = 1.0$ , then switching is allowed and if $algopt (7) = 2.0$ , then switching is not allowed. The default value is $algopt (7) = 1.0$ .
$algopt (11)$: Specifies a point in the time direction, $t_{crit}$ , beyond which integration must not be attempted. The use of $t_{crit}$ is described under the argument itask. If $algopt (1) \neq 0.0$ , a value of $0.0$ , for $algopt (11)$ , say, should be specified even if itask subsequently specifies that $t_{crit}$ will not be used.
$algopt (12)$: Specifies the minimum absolute step size to be allowed in the time integration. If this option is not required, $algopt (12)$ should be set to $0.0$ .
$algopt (13)$: Specifies the maximum absolute step size to be allowed in the time integration. If this option is not required, $algopt (13)$ should be set to $0.0$ .
$algopt (14)$: Specifies the initial step size to be attempted by the integrator. If $algopt (14) = 0.0$ , then the initial step size is calculated internally.
$algopt (15)$: Specifies the maximum number of steps to be attempted by the integrator in any one call. If $algopt (15) = 0.0$ , then no limit is imposed.
$algopt (23)$: Specifies what method is to be used to solve the nonlinear equations at the initial point to initialize the values of $U$ , $U_{t}$ , $V$ and $\dot{V}$ . If $algopt (23) = 1.0$ , a modified Newton iteration is used and if $algopt (23) = 2.0$ , functional iteration is used. The default value is $algopt (23) = 1.0$ .

algopt (29)

and

algopt (30)

are used only for the sparse matrix algebra option, i.e.,

laopt ='S'

$algopt (29)$: Governs the choice of pivots during the decomposition of the first Jacobian matrix. It should lie in the range $0.0 < algopt (29) < 1.0$ , with smaller values biasing the algorithm towards maintaining sparsity at the expense of numerical stability. If $algopt (29)$ lies outside this range then the default value is used. If the functions regard the Jacobian matrix as numerically singular then increasing $algopt (29)$ towards $1.0$ may help, but at the cost of increased fill-in. The default value is $algopt (29) = 0.1$ .
$algopt (30)$: Used as a relative pivot threshold during subsequent Jacobian decompositions (see $algopt (29)$ ) below which an internal error is invoked. $algopt (30)$ must be greater than zero, otherwise the default value is used. If $algopt (30)$ is greater than $1.0$ no check is made on the pivot size, and this may be a necessary option if the Jacobian is found to be numerically singular (see $algopt (29)$ ). The default value is $algopt (30) = 0.0001$ .

19: $remesh$ – logical scalar

Indicates whether or not spatial remeshing should be performed.

$remesh = true$: Indicates that spatial remeshing should be performed as specified.
$remesh = false$: Indicates that spatial remeshing should be suppressed.

Note: remesh should not be changed between consecutive calls to nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_keller (d03pr). Remeshing can be switched off or on at specified times by using appropriate values for the arguments nrmesh and trmesh at each call.

20: $xfix (:)$ – double array

The dimension of the array xfix must be at least

\max (1, nxfix)

xfix (i)

, for

i = 1, 2, \dots, nxfix

, must contain the value of the

x

coordinate at the

i

th fixed mesh point.

Constraint:

xfix (i) < xfix (i + 1)

, for

i = 1, 2, \dots, nxfix - 1

, and each fixed mesh point must coincide with a user-supplied initial mesh point, that is

xfix (i) = x (j)

for some

j

2 \leq j \leq npts - 1

Note: the positions of the fixed mesh points in the array

x

remain fixed during remeshing, and so the number of mesh points between adjacent fixed points (or between fixed points and end points) does not change. You should take this into account when choosing the initial mesh distribution.

21: $nrmesh$ – int64int32nag_int scalar

Indicates the form of meshing to be performed.

$nrmesh < 0$: Indicates that a new mesh is adopted according to the argument dxmesh. The mesh is tested every $|nrmesh|$ timesteps.
$nrmesh = 0$: Indicates that remeshing should take place just once at the end of the first time step reached when $t > trmesh$ .
$nrmesh > 0$: Indicates that remeshing will take place every nrmesh time steps, with no testing using dxmesh.

Note: nrmesh may be changed between consecutive calls to nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_keller (d03pr) to give greater flexibility over the times of remeshing.

22: $dxmesh$ – double scalar

Determines whether a new mesh is adopted when nrmesh is set less than zero. A possible new mesh is calculated at the end of every

|nrmesh|

time steps, but is adopted only if

x_{i}^{new} > x_{i}^{old} + dxmesh \times (x_{i + 1}^{old} - x_{i}^{old}),

x_{i}^{new} < x_{i}^{old} - dxmesh \times (x_{i}^{old} - x_{i - 1}^{old}) .

dxmesh thus imposes a lower limit on the difference between one mesh and the next.

Constraint:

dxmesh \geq 0.0

23: $trmesh$ – double scalar

Specifies when remeshing will take place when nrmesh is set to zero. Remeshing will occur just once at the end of the first time step reached when

t

is greater than trmesh.

Note: trmesh may be changed between consecutive calls to nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_keller (d03pr) to force remeshing at several specified times.

24: $ipminf$ – int64int32nag_int scalar

The level of trace information regarding the adaptive remeshing. Details are directed to the current advisory message unit (see nag_file_set_unit_advisory (x04ab)).

$ipminf = 0$: No trace information.
$ipminf = 1$: Brief summary of mesh characteristics.
$ipminf = 2$: More detailed information, including old and new mesh points, mesh sizes and monitor function values.

Constraint:

ipminf = 0

1

2

25: $monitf$ – function handle or string containing name of m-file

monitf must supply and evaluate a remesh monitor function to indicate the solution behaviour of interest.

If you specify

remesh = false

, i.e., no remeshing, then monitf will not be called and the string nag_pde_1d_parab_dae_keller_remesh_fd_dummy_monitf (d03pel) may be used for monitf. (nag_pde_1d_parab_dae_keller_remesh_fd_dummy_monitf (d03pel) is included in the NAG Toolbox.)

[fmon] = monitf(t, npts, npde, x, u)

4: $x (npts)$ – double array: The current mesh. $x (i)$ contains the value of $x_{i}$ , for $i = 1, 2, \dots, npts$ .
5: $u (npde, npts)$ – double array: The second dimension of the array u must be at least $npde \times npts$ .

$u (i, j)$ contains the value of $U_{i} (x, t)$ at $x = x (j)$ and time $t$ , for $i = 1, 2, \dots, npde$ and $j = 1, 2, \dots, npts$ .

ind = 0

, isave need not be set.

ind = 1

, isave must be unchanged from the previous call to the function because it contains required information about the iteration. In particular the following components of the array isave concern the efficiency of the integration:

$isave (1)$: Contains the number of steps taken in time.
$isave (2)$: Contains the number of residual evaluations of the resulting ODE system used. One such evaluation involves evaluating the PDE functions at all the mesh points, as well as one evaluation of the functions in the boundary conditions.
$isave (3)$: Contains the number of Jacobian evaluations performed by the time integrator.
$isave (4)$: Contains the order of the ODE method last used in the time integration.
$isave (5)$: Contains the number of Newton iterations performed by the time integrator. Each iteration involves residual evaluation of the resulting ODE system followed by a back-substitution using the $L U$ decomposition of the Jacobian matrix.

The rest of the array is used as workspace.

28: $itask$ – int64int32nag_int scalar

The task to be performed by the ODE integrator.

29: $itrace$ – int64int32nag_int scalar

The level of trace information required from nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_keller (d03pr) and the underlying ODE solver as follows:

$itrace \leq - 1$: No output is generated.
$itrace = 0$: Only warning messages from the PDE solver are printed on the current error message unit (see nag_file_set_unit_error (x04aa)).
$itrace = 1$: Output from the underlying ODE solver is printed on the current advisory message unit (see nag_file_set_unit_advisory (x04ab)). This output contains details of Jacobian entries, the nonlinear iteration and the time integration during the computation of the ODE system.
$itrace = 2$: Output from the underlying ODE solver is similar to that produced when $itrace = 1$ , except that the advisory messages are given in greater detail.
$itrace \geq 3$: The output from the underlying ODE solver is similar to that produced when $itrace = 2$ , except that the advisory messages are given in greater detail.

You are advised to set

itrace = 0

, unless you are experienced with Sub-chapter D02M–N.

30: $ind$ – int64int32nag_int scalar

Indicates whether this is a continuation call or a new integration.

$ind = 0$: Starts or restarts the integration in time.
$ind = 1$: Continues the integration after an earlier exit from the function. In this case, only the arguments tout and ifail and the remeshing arguments nrmesh, dxmesh, trmesh, xratio and con may be reset between calls to nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_keller (d03pr).

Constraint:

ind = 0

The number of fixed mesh points.

Constraint:

0 \leq nxfix \leq npts - 2

and

x (npts)

are fixed automatically and hence should not be specified as fixed points.

5: $xratio$ – double scalar

Default:

1.5

Input bound on adjacent mesh ratio (greater than

1.0

and typically in the range

1.5

3.0

). The remeshing functions will attempt to ensure that

(x_{i} - x_{i - 1}) / xratio < x_{i + 1} - x_{i} < xratio \times (x_{i} - x_{i - 1}) .

Constraint:

xratio > 1.0

6: $con$ – double scalar

Default:

2.0 / (npts - 1)

An input bound on the sub-integral of the monitor function

\int_{x_{1}}^{x_{i + 1}} F^{mon} (x) d x \leq con \int_{x_{1}}^{x_{npts}} F^{mon} (x) d x,

(see Furzeland (1984)). con gives you more control over the mesh distribution e.g., decreasing con allows more clustering. A typical value is

2 / (npts - 1)

, but you are encouraged to experiment with different values. Its value is not critical and the mesh should be qualitatively correct for all values in the range given below.

7: $ifail$ – int64int32nag_int scalar

ifail = 0

unless the function detects an error (see Error Indicators and Warnings).

Error Indicators and Warnings

Errors or warnings detected by the function:

Cases prefixed with W are classified as warnings and do not generate an error of type NAG:error_n. See nag_issue_warnings.

$ifail = 1$

On entry,	$(tout - ts)$ is too small,
or	$itask \neq 1$ , $2$ , $3$ , $4$ or $5$ ,
or	at least one of the coupling points defined in array xi is outside the interval [ $x (1), x (npts)$ ],
or	$npts < 3$ ,
or	$npde < 1$ ,
or	nleft not in the range $0$ to npde,
or	$norm_p \neq'A'$ or $'M'$ ,
or	$laopt \neq'F'$ , $'B'$ or $'S'$ ,
or	$itol \neq 1$ , $2$ , $3$ or $4$ ,
or	$ind \neq 0$ or $1$ ,
or	mesh points $x (i)$ are badly ordered,
or	lrsave is too small,
or	lisave is too small,
or	ncode and nxi are incorrectly defined,
or	$ind = 1$ on initial entry to nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_keller (d03pr),
or	an element of rtol or $atol < 0.0$ ,
or	corresponding elements of rtol and atol are both $0.0$ ,
or	$neqn \neq npde \times npts + ncode$ ,
or	nxfix not in the range $0$ to $npts - 2$ ,
or	fixed mesh point(s) do not coincide with any of the user-supplied mesh points,
or	$dxmesh < 0.0$ ,
or	$ipminf \neq 0$ , $1$ or $2$ ,
or	$xratio \leq 1.0$ ,
or	con not in the range $0.1 / (npts - 1)$ to $10 / (npts - 1)$ .

W $ifail = 2$: The underlying ODE solver cannot make any further progress, with the values of atol and rtol, across the integration range from the current point $t = ts$ . The components of u contain the computed values at the current point $t = ts$ .

W $ifail = 3$: In the underlying ODE solver, there were repeated error test failures on an attempted step, before completing the requested task, but the integration was successful as far as $t = ts$ . The problem may have a singularity, or the error requirement may be inappropriate. Incorrect positioning of boundary conditions may also result in this error.

$ifail = 4$: In setting up the ODE system, the internal initialization function was unable to initialize the derivative of the ODE system. This could be due to the fact that ires was repeatedly set to $3$ in one of pdedef, bndary or odedef, when the residual in the underlying ODE solver was being evaluated. Incorrect positioning of boundary conditions may also result in this error.

$ifail = 5$: In solving the ODE system, a singular Jacobian has been encountered. You should check their problem formulation.

W $ifail = 6$: When evaluating the residual in solving the ODE system, ires was set to $2$ in one of pdedef, bndary or odedef. Integration was successful as far as $t = ts$ .

$ifail = 7$: The values of atol and rtol are so small that the function is unable to start the integration in time.

$ifail = 8$: In either, pdedef, bndary or odedef, ires was set to an invalid value.

$ifail = 9$ (nag_ode_ivp_stiff_imp_revcom (d02nn)): A serious error has occurred in an internal call to the specified function. Check the problem specification an all arguments and array dimensions. Setting $itrace = 1$ may provide more information. If the problem persists, contact NAG.

W $ifail = 10$: The required task has been completed, but it is estimated that a small change in atol and rtol is unlikely to produce any change in the computed solution. (Only applies when you are not operating in one step mode, that is when $itask \neq 2$ or $5$ .)

$ifail = 11$: An error occurred during Jacobian formulation of the ODE system (a more detailed error description may be directed to the current advisory message unit). If using the sparse matrix algebra option, the values of $algopt (29)$ and $algopt (30)$ may be inappropriate.

$ifail = 12$: In solving the ODE system, the maximum number of steps specified in $algopt (15)$ have been taken.

W $ifail = 13$: Some error weights $w_{i}$ became zero during the time integration (see the description of itol). Pure relative error control $(atol (i) = 0.0)$ was requested on a variable (the $i$ th) which has become zero. The integration was successful as far as $t = ts$ .

$ifail = 14$: Not applicable.

$ifail = 15$: When using the sparse option, the value of lisave or lrsave was insufficient (more detailed information may be directed to the current error message unit).

$ifail = 16$: remesh has been changed between calls to nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_keller (d03pr).

$ifail = - 99$: An unexpected error has been triggered by this routine. Please contact NAG.

$ifail = - 399$: Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.

$ifail = - 999$: Dynamic memory allocation failed.

Accuracy

nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_keller (d03pr) controls the accuracy of the integration in the time direction but not the accuracy of the approximation in space. The spatial accuracy depends on both the number of mesh points and on their distribution in space. In the time integration only the local error over a single step is controlled and so the accuracy over a number of steps cannot be guaranteed. You should therefore test the effect of varying the accuracy arguments, atol and rtol.

Further Comments

The Keller box scheme can be used to solve higher-order problems which have been reduced to first-order by the introduction of new variables (see the example in Example). In general, a second-order problem can be solved with slightly greater accuracy using the Keller box scheme instead of a finite difference scheme (nag_pde_1d_parab_remesh_fd (d03pp) for example), but at the expense of increased CPU time due to the larger number of function evaluations required.

It should be noted that the Keller box scheme, in common with other central-difference schemes, may be unsuitable for some hyperbolic first-order problems such as the apparently simple linear advection equation

U_{t} + a U_{x} = 0

, where

a

is a constant, resulting in spurious oscillations due to the lack of dissipation. This type of problem requires a discretization scheme with upwind weighting (nag_pde_1d_parab_convdiff_remesh (d03ps) for example), or the addition of a second-order artificial dissipation term.

The time taken depends on the complexity of the system, the accuracy requested, and the frequency of the mesh updates. For a given system with fixed accuracy and mesh-update frequency it is approximately proportional to neqn.

Example

This example is the first-order system

\begin{matrix} \frac{\partial U_{1}}{\partial t} + \frac{\partial U_{1}}{\partial x} + \frac{\partial U_{2}}{\partial x} & = & 0, \\ \frac{\partial U_{2}}{\partial t} + 4 \frac{\partial U_{1}}{\partial x} + \frac{\partial U_{2}}{\partial x} & = & 0, \end{matrix}

for

x \in [0, 1]

and

t \geq 0

The initial conditions are

\begin{array}{lcl} U_{1} (x, 0) & = & e^{x}, \\ U_{2} (x, 0) & = & x^{2} + \sin (2 π x^{2}), \end{array}

and the Dirichlet boundary conditions for

U_{1}

x = 0

and

U_{2}

x = 1

are given by the exact solution:

\begin{matrix} U_{1} (x, t) & = & \frac{1}{2} \{e^{x + t} + e^{x - 3 t}\} + \frac{1}{4} \{\sin (2 π {(x - 3 t)}^{2}) - \sin (2 π {(x + t)}^{2})\} + 2 t^{2} - 2 x t, \\ U_{2} (x, t) & = & e^{x - 3 t} - e^{x + t} + \frac{1}{2} \{\sin (2 π {(x - 3 t)}^{2}) + \sin (2 π {(x + t)}^{2})\} + x^{2} + 5 t^{2} - 2 x t . \end{matrix}
