I tried to debug it (thus the reason for "volatile"), and reduced the whole code down to (called in SetupSystem()):
VectorTools::project(dof_handler, constraint_matrix, QGauss<dim>(3), InitialValues<dim>(carrier_density), solution); //For checking of content const FEValuesExtractors::Vector N_density(N_component); const FEValuesExtractors::Vector E_temperature(TE_component); const FEValuesExtractors::Vector L_temperature(TL_component); const QGauss<dim> quadrature_formula(fe_degree+1); const unsigned int dofs_per_cell = finite_element.dofs_per_cell; const unsigned int n_q_points = quadrature_formula.size(); FEValues<dim> fe_values(finite_element, quadrature_formula, update_values | update_gradients | update_JxW_values); std::vector<Tensor<1, dim>> value_N(dofs_per_cell), value_TE( dofs_per_cell), value_TL(dofs_per_cell); for (auto cell = dof_handler.begin_active(); cell!=dof_handler.end (); ++cell) { fe_values.reinit (cell); for (unsigned int q_point=0; q_point<n_q_points; ++q_point) { for(size_t i = 0; i < dofs_per_cell; ++i) { std::cout << "Value_N[" << i << "] = " << fe_values[ N_density].value(i, q_point) << '\n'; getchar(); value_N[i] = fe_values[N_density].value(i, q_point); value_TE[i] = fe_values[E_temperature].value(i, q_point); value_TL[i] = fe_values[L_temperature].value(i, q_point); } } } //Content checking end Furthermore, I checked (via break points) how the values are set in InitialValues<>: template <int dim> double InitialValues<dim>::value(const Point<dim> &p, const unsigned int component) const { (void) p; Assert(component < this->n_components, ExcIndexRange(component, 0, this->n_components)); if(component < dim) return equations.initial_carrier_density; else if(component < 2*dim && component >= dim) return equations.ambient_temperature; else return equations.ambient_temperature; } template <int dim> void InitialValues<dim>::vector_value(const Point<dim> &p, Vector <double> &values) const { for(size_t i = 0; i < this->n_components; ++i) values(i) = InitialValues<dim>::value(p, i); } and according to the debug output, every value was set correctly in that function. Nevertheless in the debug output code above I still get (for the first point, and the first values of i and j: Value_N[0] = 0.324665 0 0 Value_N[1] = 0 0.324665 0 Value_N[2] = 0 0 0.324665 Value_N[3] = 0 0 0 Value_N[4] = 0 0 0 Value_N[5] = 0 0 0 Value_N[6] = 0 0 0 Value_N[7] = 0 0 0 Value_N[8] = 0 0 0 Value_N[9] = -0.0412379 0 0 Value_N[10] = 0 -0.0412379 0 Value_N[11] = 0 0 -0.0412379 Value_N[12] = 0 0 0 Value_N[13] = 0 0 0 Value_N[14] = 0 0 0 Value_N[15] = 0 0 0 Value_N[16] = 0 0 0 Value_N[17] = 0 0 0 Thus: Is there a misunderstanding in how the data is stored, or how the data is processed? According to my understanding the values should be 1e18 at every point. Is that correct? Or is there a better way to debug my code? Am Freitag, 4.
