hi

How would one go about implementing a Riemann function in DMPlexTS that included a term based on the gradient of the solution?

Simple example: extending TS ex11 to include a diffusion term.

Would that be done by subtracting a gradient term from the flux in PhysicsRiemann_Advect()- e.g. a constant diffusion coefficient multiplied by the gradient of the solution across the interface, calculated simply by the difference between the solution values at the two cells, divided by the distance between their centroids?

It seems to me you would need to pass the face index into the Riemann function, to get access to the cells supporting the face and their centroid positions- but the way the Riemann function interface is currently set up doesn't appear to allow for that.

Or have I got the wrong idea about how one would go about implementing this?
