Hi.
There are several point_value functions. Right now, you are calling one that
only works for scalar elements:
https://www.dealii.org/current/doxygen/deal.II/namespaceVectorTools.html#a7be5c7eed52308898dfaad91c4cff204
You need to call the more general function:
https://www.dealii.org/current/doxygen/deal.II/namespaceVectorTools.html#acd358e9b110ccbf4a7f76796d206b9c7
by passing a vector with each components value as the last argument to the
function:
Vector<double> value(n_solution_components);
VectorTools::point_value(dof_handler,
solution,
point,
value);
Best,
Simon

Dear everyone,
I have trouble understanding in how to evaluate a solution at a given point
correctly.
Described in Step-3 for example the function point_value is used to evaluate
the solution at (0.3, 0.3), and I want to do something quite similar.
However, my solution is vector valued (i.e. I use FESystem ), and I get the
following error message
>>An error occurred in line <181> of file
<./include/deal.II/numerics/vector_tools_point_value.templates.h> in function
typename VectorType::value_type dealii::VectorTools::point_value(const dealii::Mapping<dim,
spacedim>&, const dealii::DoFHandler<dim, spacedim>&, const VectorType&, const
dealii::Point<spacedim>&) [with int dim =
2; VectorType = dealii::Vector<double>; int spacedim = 2; typename
VectorType::value_type = double]
The violated condition was:
dof.get_fe(0).n_components() == 1
Additional information:
Finite element is not scalar as is necessary for this function
However in the documentation it says "Evaluate a possibly vector-valued finite element
function defined by the given DoFHandler
<https://dealii.org/developer/doxygen/deal.II/classDoFHandler.html> and nodal vector
fe_function at the given point point". So I am curious how to evaluate my solution at a
few fixed points? Did I miss something?
Performance-wise it does not have to be perfect at all, as I want to evaluate
only ~400 points on a few hundered solutions (time-steps).
Best,
Jost
