Detailed Description

template<int dim>
class FunctionParser< dim >

This class implements a function object that gets its value by parsing a string describing this function. It is a wrapper class for the muparser library (see http://muparser.beltoforion.de/). This class lets you evaluate strings such as "sqrt(1-x^2+y^2)" for given values of 'x' and 'y'. Please refer to the muparser documentation for more information. This class is used in the step-33 and step-36 tutorial programs (the latter being much simpler to understand).

In addition to the built-in functions of muparser, namely

sin, cos, tan, asin, acos, atan, sinh, cosh, tanh, asinh, acosh, atanh,

atan2, log2, log10, log, ln, exp, sqrt, sign, rint, abs, min, max, sum, avg

this class also supports:

if(condition, then-value, else-value)
| and & (logic or and and)
int(x), ceil(x), floor(x) (rounding)
cot(x), csc(x), sec(x)
pow(x,n), log(x)
erfc(x)
rand(), rand_seed(seed)

The following examples shows how to use this class:

// set up problem:
std::string variables = "x,y";
std::string expression = "cos(x)+sqrt(y)";
std::map<std::string,double> constants;
// FunctionParser with 2 variables and 1 component:
FunctionParser<2> fp(1);
fp.initialize(variables,
              expression,
              constants);
// Point at which we want to evaluate the function
Point<2> point(0.0, 4.0);
// evaluate the expression at 'point':
double result = fp.value(point);
deallog << "Function '" << expression << "'"
        << " @ " << point
        << " is " << result << std::endl;

The second example is a bit more complex:

// Define some constants that will be used by the function parser
std::map<std::string,double> constants;
constants["pi"] = numbers::PI;
// Define the variables that will be used inside the expressions
std::string variables = "x,y,z";
// Define the expressions of the individual components of a
// vector valued function with two components:
std::vector<std::string> expressions(2);
expressions[0] = "sin(2*pi*x)+sinh(pi*z)";
expressions[1] = "sin(2*pi*y)*exp(x^2)";
// function parser with 3 variables and 2 components
FunctionParser<3> vector_function(2);
// And populate it with the newly created objects.
vector_function.initialize(variables,
                           expressions,
                           constants);
// Point at which we want to evaluate the function
Point<3> point(0.0, 1.0, 1.0);
// This Vector will store the result
Vector<double> result(2);
// Fill 'result' by evaluating the function
vector_function.vector_value(point, result);
// We can also only evaluate the 2nd component:
const double c = vector_function.value(point, 1);
// Output the evaluated function
deallog << "Function '" << expressions[0] << "," << expressions[1] << "'"
        << " at " << point
        << " is " << result << std::endl;

This class overloads the virtual methods value() and vector_value() of the Function base class with the byte compiled versions of the expressions given to the initialize() methods. Note that the class will not work unless you first call the initialize() method that accepts the text description of the function as an argument (among other things).

The syntax to describe a function follows usual programming practice, and is explained in detail at the homepage of the underlying muparser library at http://muparser.beltoforion.de/ .

For a wrapper of the FunctionParser class that supports ParameterHandler, see ParsedFunction.

Vector-valued functions can either be declared using strings where the function components are separated by semicolons, or using a vector of strings each defining one vector component.

An example of time dependent scalar function is the following:

// Empty constants object
std::map<std::string,double> constants;
// Variables that will be used inside the expressions
std::string variables = "x,y,t";
// Define the expression of the scalar time dependent function.
std::string expression = "exp(y*x)*exp(-t)";
// Generate an empty scalar function
FunctionParser<2> function;
// And populate it with the newly created objects.
function.initialize(variables,
                    expression,
                    constants,
                    true);        // This tells the parser that
                                  // it is a time-dependent function
                                  // and there is another variable
                                  // to be taken into account (t).

The following is another example of how to instantiate a vector valued function by using a single string:

// Empty constants object
std::map<std::string,double> constants;
// Variables that will be used inside the expressions
std::string variables = "x,y";
// Define the expression of the vector valued  function.
std::string expression = "cos(2*pi*x)*y^2; sin(2*pi*x)*exp(y)";
// Generate an empty vector valued function
FunctionParser<2> function(2);
// And populate it with the newly created objects.
function.initialize(variables,
                    expression,
                    constants);

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<int dim>

FunctionParser< dim >::FunctionParser	(	const unsigned int	n_components = `1`,
		const double	initial_time = `0.0`,
		const double	h = `1e-8`
	)

Constructor for parsed functions. Its arguments are the same of the base class Function, with the additional parameter h, used for the computation of gradients using finite differences. This object needs to be initialized with the initialize() method before you can use it. If an attempt to use this function is made before the initialize() method has been called, then an exception is thrown.

Definition at line 48 of file function_parser.cc.

template<int dim>

FunctionParser< dim >::FunctionParser	(	const std::string &	expression,
		const std::string &	constants = `""`,
		const std::string &	variable_names = `default_variable_names() + ",t"`,
		const double	h = `1e-8`
	)

Constructor for parsed functions. Takes directly a semi-colon separated list of expressions (one for each component of the function), an optional comma-separated list of constants, variable names and step size for the computation of first order derivatives by finite difference.

Destructor. Explicitly delete the FunctionParser objects (there is one for each component of the function).

Member Function Documentation

template<int dim>

void FunctionParser< dim >::initialize	(	const std::string &	vars,
		const std::vector< std::string > &	expressions,
		const ConstMap &	constants,
		const bool	time_dependent = `false`
	)

Initialize the function. This methods accepts the following parameters:

vars: a string with the variables that will be used by the expressions to be evaluated. Note that the variables can have any name (of course different from the function names defined above!), but the order IS important. The first variable will correspond to the first component of the point in which the function is evaluated, the second variable to the second component and so forth. If this function is also time dependent, then it is necessary to specify it by setting the time_dependent parameter to true. An exception is thrown if the number of variables specified here is different from dim (if this function is not time-dependent) or from dim+1 (if it is time- dependent).

expressions: a list of strings containing the expressions that will be byte compiled by the internal parser (FunctionParser). Note that the size of this vector must match exactly the number of components of the FunctionParser, as declared in the constructor. If this is not the case, an exception is thrown.

constants: a map of constants used to pass any necessary constant that we want to specify in our expressions (in the example above the number pi). An expression is valid if and only if it contains only defined variables and defined constants (other than the functions specified above). If a constant is given whose name is not valid (eg: constants["sin"] = 1.5;) an exception is thrown.

time_dependent. If this is a time dependent function, then the last variable declared in vars is assumed to be the time variable, and this->get_time() is used to initialize it when evaluating the function. Naturally the number of variables parsed by the initialize() method in this case is dim+1. The value of this parameter defaults to false, i.e. do not consider time.

Definition at line 96 of file function_parser.cc.

template<int dim>

void FunctionParser< dim >::initialize	(	const std::string &	vars,
		const std::string &	expression,
		const ConstMap &	constants,
		const bool	time_dependent = `false`
	)

Initialize the function. Same as above, but accepts a string rather than a vector of strings. If this is a vector valued function, its components are expected to be separated by a semicolon. An exception is thrown if this method is called and the number of components successfully parsed does not match the number of components of the base function.

Definition at line 416 of file function_parser.cc.

template<int dim>

std::string FunctionParser< dim >::default_variable_names ( )

static

A function that returns default names for variables, to be used in the first argument of the initialize() functions: it returns "x" in 1d, "x,y" in 2d, and "x,y,z" in 3d.

Definition at line 410 of file function_parser.h.

template<int dim>

double FunctionParser< dim >::value	(	const Point< dim > &	p,
		const unsigned int	component = `0`
	)		const

overridevirtual

Return the value of the function at the given point. Unless there is only one component (i.e. the function is scalar), you should state the component you want to have evaluated; it defaults to zero, i.e. the first component.

Reimplemented from Function< dim >.

template<int dim>

void FunctionParser< dim >::vector_value	(	const Point< dim > &	p,
		Vector< double > &	values
	)		const

overridevirtual

Return all components of a vector-valued function at the given point p.

values shall have the right size beforehand, i.e. n_components.

template<int dim>

void FunctionParser< dim >::init_muparser ( ) const

private

Initialize fp and vars on the current thread. This function may only be called once per thread. A thread can test whether the function has already been called by testing whether 'fp.get().size()==0' (not initialized) or >0 (already initialized).
