FunctionValuePostprocessor

Computes the value of a supplied function at a single point (scalable)

If FunctionValuePostprocessor uses something like a ParsedFunction, it may have indirect dependencies on other user objects/postprocessors, since ParsedFunction supports postprocessor values. If this is the case, the "indirect_dependencies" parameter should be used to supply these indirect dependencies, otherwise these dependencies may execute after this postprocessor, and this postprocessor may have inaccurate values.

Input Parameters

  • functionThe function which supplies the postprocessor value.

    C++ Type:FunctionName

    Controllable:No

    Description:The function which supplies the postprocessor value.

Required Parameters

  • execute_onTIMESTEP_ENDThe list of flag(s) indicating when this object should be executed, the available options include NONE, INITIAL, LINEAR, NONLINEAR, TIMESTEP_END, TIMESTEP_BEGIN, FINAL, CUSTOM, ALWAYS.

    Default:TIMESTEP_END

    C++ Type:ExecFlagEnum

    Options:NONE, INITIAL, LINEAR, NONLINEAR, TIMESTEP_END, TIMESTEP_BEGIN, FINAL, CUSTOM, TRANSFER, ALWAYS

    Controllable:No

    Description:The list of flag(s) indicating when this object should be executed, the available options include NONE, INITIAL, LINEAR, NONLINEAR, TIMESTEP_END, TIMESTEP_BEGIN, FINAL, CUSTOM, ALWAYS.

  • indirect_dependenciesIf the evaluated function depends on other postprocessors they must be listed here to ensure proper dependency resolution

    C++ Type:std::vector<PostprocessorName>

    Controllable:No

    Description:If the evaluated function depends on other postprocessors they must be listed here to ensure proper dependency resolution

  • point0 0 0A point in space to be given to the function Default: (0, 0, 0)

    Default:0 0 0

    C++ Type:libMesh::Point

    Controllable:Yes

    Description:A point in space to be given to the function Default: (0, 0, 0)

  • prop_getter_suffixAn optional suffix parameter that can be appended to any attempt to retrieve/get material properties. The suffix will be prepended with a '_' character.

    C++ Type:MaterialPropertyName

    Controllable:No

    Description:An optional suffix parameter that can be appended to any attempt to retrieve/get material properties. The suffix will be prepended with a '_' character.

  • scale_factor1A scale factor to be applied to the function

    Default:1

    C++ Type:double

    Controllable:Yes

    Description:A scale factor to be applied to the function

Optional Parameters

  • allow_duplicate_execution_on_initialFalseIn the case where this UserObject is depended upon by an initial condition, allow it to be executed twice during the initial setup (once before the IC and again after mesh adaptivity (if applicable).

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:No

    Description:In the case where this UserObject is depended upon by an initial condition, allow it to be executed twice during the initial setup (once before the IC and again after mesh adaptivity (if applicable).

  • control_tagsAdds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.

    C++ Type:std::vector<std::string>

    Controllable:No

    Description:Adds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.

  • enableTrueSet the enabled status of the MooseObject.

    Default:True

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:Yes

    Description:Set the enabled status of the MooseObject.

  • force_postauxFalseForces the UserObject to be executed in POSTAUX

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:No

    Description:Forces the UserObject to be executed in POSTAUX

  • force_preauxFalseForces the UserObject to be executed in PREAUX

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:No

    Description:Forces the UserObject to be executed in PREAUX

  • force_preicFalseForces the UserObject to be executed in PREIC during initial setup

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:No

    Description:Forces the UserObject to be executed in PREIC during initial setup

  • outputsVector of output names were you would like to restrict the output of variables(s) associated with this object

    C++ Type:std::vector<OutputName>

    Controllable:No

    Description:Vector of output names were you would like to restrict the output of variables(s) associated with this object

  • use_displaced_meshFalseWhether or not this object should use the displaced mesh for computation. Note that in the case this is true but no displacements are provided in the Mesh block the undisplaced mesh will still be used.

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:No

    Description:Whether or not this object should use the displaced mesh for computation. Note that in the case this is true but no displacements are provided in the Mesh block the undisplaced mesh will still be used.
