There is a bit of complicated logic to determine the "adjusted" timestep in TSAdaptChoose() when if (*accept && ts->exact_final_time == TS_EXACTFINALTIME_MATCHSTEP) {
Is it possible that hmax = tmax - t; is exactly zero, and the logic below does not correctly handle that case? 0 TS dt 0. time 0. 0 TS dt 0. time 0. 0 TS dt 0. time 0. 0 TS dt 0. time 0. TSAdapt basic step 0 stage rejected (SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN) t=0 + 0.000e+00 retrying with dt=0.000e+00 TSAdapt basic step 0 stage rejected (SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN) t=0 + 0.000e+00 retrying with dt=0.000e+00 TSAdapt basic step 0 stage rejected (SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN) t=0 + 0.000e+00 retrying with dt=0.000e+00 TSAdapt basic step 0 stage rejected (SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN) t=0 + 0.000e+00 retrying with dt=0.000e+00 TSAdapt basic step 0 stage rejected (SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN) t=0 + 0.000e+00 retrying with dt=0.000e+00 TSAdapt basic step 0 stage rejected (SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN) t=0 + 0.000e+00 retrying with dt=0.000e+00 TSAdapt basic step 0 stage rejected (SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN) t=0 + 0.000e+00 retrying with dt=0.000e+00 TSAdapt basic step 0 stage rejected (SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN) t=0 + 0.000e+00 retrying with dt=0.000e+00 TSAdapt basic step 0 stage rejected (SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN) t=0 + 0.000e+00 retrying with dt=0.000e+00 TSAdapt basic step 0 stage rejected (SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN) t=0 + 0.000e+00 retrying with dt=0.000e+00 TSAdapt basic step 0 stage rejected (SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN) t=0 + 0.000e+00 retrying with dt=0.000e+00 Sophie, Any idea why SNES reason DIVERGED_FNORM_NAN?
