I would do it like this:
xVar = CellVariable(mesh=mesh, value=x)
delta = 1. * ((xVar > x_s) & (xVar < x_s + 1))
Thanks. This is exactly what I was trying to do.
But I believe this gives me an incorrect solution (checked against
analytical solution) since the time integration would assume that
the source has a fixed position during each time interval `dt`.
The time integration is first order and the way I declare delta
above should have the exact same effect as moving delta.setValue
into the loop.
Hmm, that makes sense. Somehow I think I should have realized that
these were the same.
Do you get better agreement if you reduce the timestep?
Yeah, smaller timesteps help; the convergence is a little slower than
I imagined, though. I may have some other errors in my code that's
causing problems (my actual code isn't the same as the example I gave).
Thanks for your help!
