Amy,
> template <int dim> > class BoundaryValuesU : public Function<dim>{ > public: You are correct: You need to tell the base class how many vector components your function has. You should be able to do this by adding a constructor: BoundaryValuesU () : Function<dim> (dim) // your function has 'dim' components {} > virtual void vector_value(const Point<dim> & p, Vector<double> &values) > const override > { > double xpos, ypos, zpos; > xpos = p[0]; > ypos = p[1]; > if (dim==3){zpos=p[2];} > else {zpos=0.0;} > values[0] > = > xpos/std::pow(std::pow(xpos,2.0)+std::pow(ypos,2.0)+std::pow(zpos,2.0),0.5)*0.1; > values[1] > = > ypos/std::pow(std::pow(xpos,2.0)+std::pow(ypos,2.0)+std::pow(zpos,2.0),0.5)*0.1; > values[2] > = > zpos/std::pow(std::pow(xpos,2.0)+std::pow(ypos,2.0)+std::pow(zpos,2.0),0.5)*0.1; > return; > } You can write this much simpler using the fact that Point objects are really just vectors: virtual void vector_value (...) const override { Tensor<1,dim> displacement = 0.1 * p / p.norm(); for (unsigned int d=0; d<dim; ++d) values[d] = displacement[d]; } Best W. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wolfgang Bangerth email: bange...@colostate.edu www: http://www.math.colostate.edu/~bangerth/ -- The deal.II project is located at http://www.dealii.org/ For mailing list/forum options, see https://groups.google.com/d/forum/dealii?hl=en --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "deal.II User Group" group.
