How is this different than SNESComputeFunction subtracting off the RHS?

I agree that the logic/naming is perhaps too overloaded.

Are you trolling me?  Reactive fluid-structure interaction:

1. fluid splitting to isolate the acoustic wave (stiff)

2. fluid containing everything but the acoustic wave (non-stiff)

3. fast reactions

4. slow reactions

5. structure


Note that when using conservative variables, every one of these splits
requires evaluation of the equation of state (reactions rate
coefficients depend on Temperature, structure boundary condition
requires pressure and shear stress).  This doesn't even have
viscoelastics, sedimentation, or a turbulence model.
