d03raf (dim2_gen_order2_rectangle)
1
Purpose
d03raf integrates a system of linear or nonlinear, time-dependent partial differential equations (PDEs) in two space dimensions on a rectangular domain. The method of lines is employed to reduce the PDEs to a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) which are solved using a backward differentiation formula (BDF) method. The resulting system of nonlinear equations is solved using a modified Newton method and a Bi-CGSTAB iterative linear solver with ILU preconditioning. Local uniform grid refinement is used to improve the accuracy of the solution.
d03raf originates from the VLUGR2 package (see
Blom and Verwer (1993) and
Blom et al. (1996)).

Description
d03raf integrates the system of PDEs:
for
and
in the rectangular domain
,
, and time interval
, where the vector
is the set of solution values
and
denotes partial differentiation with respect to
, and similarly for
etc.
The functions
must be supplied by you in
pdedef. Similarly the initial values of the functions
must be specified at
in
pdeiv.
Note that whilst complete generality is offered by the master equations
(1),
d03raf is not appropriate for all PDEs. In particular, hyperbolic systems should not be solved using this routine. Also, at least one component of
must appear in the system of PDEs.
The boundary conditions must be supplied by you in
bndary in the form
for all
when
or
and for all
when
or
and
The domain is covered by a uniform coarse base grid of size
specified by you, and nested finer uniform subgrids are subsequently created in regions with high spatial activity. The refinement is controlled using a space monitor which is computed from the current solution and a user-supplied space tolerance
tols. A number of optional parameters, e.g., the maximum number of grid levels at any time, and some weighting factors, can be specified in the arrays
opti and
optr. Further details of the refinement strategy can be found in
Section 9.
The system of PDEs and the boundary conditions are discretized in space on each grid using a standard second-order finite difference scheme (centred on the internal domain and one-sided at the boundaries), and the resulting system of ODEs is integrated in time using a second-order, two-step, implicit BDF method with variable step size. The time integration is controlled using a time monitor computed at each grid level from the current solution and a user-supplied time tolerance
tolt, and some further optional user-specified weighting factors held in
optr (see
Section 9 for details). The time monitor is used to compute a new step size, subject to restrictions on the size of the change between steps, and (optional) user-specified maximum and minimum step sizes held in
dt. The step size is adjusted so that the remaining integration interval is an integer number times
. In this way a solution is obtained at
.
A modified Newton method is used to solve the nonlinear equations arising from the time integration. You may specify (in
opti) the maximum number of Newton iterations to be attempted. A Jacobian matrix is calculated at the beginning of each time step. If the Newton process diverges or the maximum number of iterations is exceeded, a new Jacobian is calculated using the most recent iterates and the Newton process is restarted. If convergence is not achieved after the (optional) user-specified maximum number of new Jacobian evaluations, the time step is retried with
. The linear systems arising from the Newton iteration are solved using a Bi-CGSTAB iterative method, in combination with ILU preconditioning. The maximum number of iterations can be specified by you in
opti.
The solution at all grid levels is stored in the workspace arrays, along with other information needed for a restart (i.e., a continuation call). It is not intended that you extract the solution from these arrays, indeed the necessary information regarding these arrays is not included. The user-supplied monitor
monitr should be used to obtain the solution at particular levels and times.
monitr is called at the end of every time step, with the last step being identified via the input argument
tlast.
Within
pdeiv,
pdedef,
bndary and
monitr the data structure is as follows. Each point on a particular grid is given an index (ranging from
to the total number of points on the grid) and all coordinate or solution information is stored in arrays according to this index, e.g.,
and
contain the
- and
coordinate of point
, and
contains the
th solution component
at point
.
Further details of the underlying algorithm can be found in
Section 9 and in
Blom and Verwer (1993) and
Blom et al. (1996) and the references therein.

Attempted time-step smaller than specified minimum. Check problem formulation in
pdedef,
bndary and
pdeiv. Try increasing
itrace for more information.
The time step size to be attempted is less than the specified minimum size. This may occur following time step failures and subsequent step size reductions caused by one or more of the following:
- the requested accuracy could not be achieved, i.e., tolt is too small,
- the maximum number of linear solver iterations, Newton iterations or Jacobian evaluations is too small,
- ILU decomposition of the Jacobian matrix could not be performed, possibly due to singularity of the Jacobian.
Setting
itrace to a higher value may provide further information.
In the latter two cases you are advised to check their problem formulation in
pdedef and/or
bndary, and the initial values in
pdeiv if appropriate.

Integration completed, but maximum number of levels too small for required accuracy.
The integration has been completed but the maximum number of levels specified in
was insufficient at one or more time steps, meaning that the requested space accuracy could not be achieved. To avoid this warning either increase the value of

Accuracy
There are three sources of error in the algorithm: space and time discretization, and interpolation (linear) between grid levels. The space and time discretization errors are controlled separately using the arguments
tols and
tolt described in the following section, and you should test the effects of varying these arguments. Interpolation errors are generally implicitly controlled by the refinement criterion since in areas where interpolation errors are potentially large, the space monitor will also be large. It can be shown that the global spatial accuracy is comparable to that which would be obtained on a uniform grid of the finest grid size. A full error analysis can be found in
Trompert and Verwer (1993).

Parallelism and Performance
d03raf is not thread safe and should not be called from a multithreaded user program. Please see
Section 3.12.1 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for more information on thread safety.
d03raf is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
d03raf makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.
Please consult the
X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this routine. Please also consult the
Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.
d03raf requires a user-supplied routine
pdedef to evaluate the functions
, for
. The parallelism within
d03raf will be more efficient if
pdedef can also be parallelized. This is often the case, but you must add some OpenMP directives to your version of
pdedef to implement the parallelism. For example, if the body of code for
pdedef is as follows (adapted from the first test case in the document for
d03raf):
res(1:npts,1:npde) = ut(1:npts,1:npde) - diffusion*(uxx(1:npts,1: &
npde)+uyy(1:npts,1:npde)) - damkohler*(one+heat_release-u(1:npts, &
1:npde))*exp(-activ_energy/u(1:npts,1:npde))
This example can be parallelized, as the updating of
res for each value in the range
is independent of every other value. Thus this should be parallelized in OpenMP (using an explicit loop rather than Fortran array syntax) as follows:
!$OMP DO
Do i = 1, npts
res(i,1:npde) = ut(i,1:npde) -diffusion*(uxx(i,1:npde)+uyy(i,1:npde &
)) - damkohler*(1.0E0_nag_wp+heat_release-u(i,1:npde))*exp(- &
activ_energy/u(i,1:npde))
End Do
!$OMP END DO
Note that the OpenMP PARALLEL directive must not be specified, as the OpenMP DO directive will bind to the PARALLEL region within the d03raf code. Also note that this assumes the default OpenMP behaviour that all variables are SHARED, except for loop indices that are PRIVATE.
To avoid problems for existing library users, who will not have specified any OpenMP directives in their
pdedef routine, the default assumption of
d03raf is that
pdedef has not been parallelized, and executes calls to
pdedef in serial mode. You must indicate that
pdedef has been parallelized by setting
ind to
or
as appropriate. See
Section 5 for details.
If the code within
pdedef cannot be parallelized, you must
not add any OpenMP directives to your code, and must
not set
ind to
or
. If
ind is set to
or
and
pdedef has not been parallelized, results on multiple threads will be unpredictable and may give rise to incorrect results and/or program crashes or deadlocks. Please contact
NAG for advice if required. Overloading
ind in this manner is not entirely satisfactory, consequently it is likely that replacement interfaces for
d03raf will be included in a future NAG Library release.
The local uniform grid refinement method is summarised as follows:
1. |
Initialize the course base grid, an initial solution and an initial time step. |
2. |
Solve the system of PDEs on the current grid with the current time step. |
3. |
If the required accuracy in space and the maximum number of grid levels have not yet been reached:
(a) |
Determine new finer grid at forward time level. |
(b) |
Get solution values at previous time level(s) on new grid. |
(c) |
Interpolate internal boundary values from old grid at forward time. |
(d) |
Get initial values for the Newton process at forward time. |
(e) |
Go to . |
|
4. |
Update the coarser grid solution using the finer grid values. |
5. |
Estimate error in time integration. If time error is acceptable advance time level. |
6. |
Determine new step size then go to with coarse base as current grid. |
For each grid point
a space monitor
is determined by
where
and
are the grid widths in the
and
directions; and
,
are the
and
coordinates at grid point
. The argument
is obtained from
where
is the user-supplied space tolerance;
is a weighting factor for the relative importance of the
th PDE component on the space monitor; and
is the approximate maximum absolute value of the
th component. A value for
must be supplied by you. Values for
and
must also be supplied but may be set to the value
if little information about the solution is known.
A new level of refinement is created if
depending on the grid level at the previous step in order to avoid fluctuations in the number of grid levels between time steps. If
(5) is satisfied then all grid points for which
are flagged and surrounding cells are quartered in size.
No derefinement takes place as such, since at each time step the solution on the base grid is computed first and new finer grids are then created based on the new solution. Hence derefinement occurs implicitly. See
Section 9.1.
The time integration is controlled using a time monitor calculated at each level
up to the maximum level used, given by
where
is the total number of points on grid level
;
;
is the current time step;
is the time derivative of
which is approximated by first-order finite differences;
is the time equivalent of the space weighting factor
; and
is given by
where
is as before, and
is the user-specified time tolerance.
An integration step is rejected and retried at all levels if

Example
For this routine two examples are presented, with a main program and two example problems given in Example 1 (EX1) and Example 2 (EX2).
Example 1 (EX1)
This example stems from combustion theory and is a model for a single, one-step reaction of a mixture of two chemicals (see
Adjerid and Flaherty (1988)). The PDE for the temperature of the mixture
is
for
and
, with initial conditions
for
, and boundary conditions
The heat release argument
, the Damkohler number
, the activation energy
, the reaction rate
, and the diffusion argument
.
For small times the temperature gradually increases in a circular region about the origin, and at about ‘ignition’ occurs causing the temperature to suddenly jump from near unity to , and a reaction front forms and propagates outwards, becoming steeper. Thus during the solution, just one grid level is used up to the ignition point, then two levels, and then three as the reaction front steepens.
Example 2 (EX2)
This example is taken from a multispecies food web model, in which predator-prey relationships in a spatial domain are simulated (see
Brown et al. (1994)). In this example there is just one species each of prey and predator, and the two PDEs for the concentrations
and
of the prey and the predator respectively are
with
where
and
, and
.
The initial conditions are taken to be simple peaked functions which satisfy the boundary conditions and very nearly satisfy the PDEs:
and the boundary conditions are of Neumann type, i.e., zero normal derivatives everywhere.
During the solution a number of peaks and troughs develop across the domain, and so the number of levels required increases with time. Since the solution varies rapidly in space across the whole of the domain, refinement at intermediate levels tends to occur at all points of the domain.
