//            Volta Miniapp:  Simple Electrostatics Simulation Code
//            -----------------------------------------------------
//
// This miniapp solves a simple 2D or 3D electrostatic problem.
//
//                            Div eps Grad Phi = rho
//
// The permittivity function is that of the vacuum with an optional dielectric
// sphere. The charge density is either zero or a user defined sphere of charge.
//
// Boundary conditions for the electric potential consist of a user defined
// piecewise constant potential or a potential leading to a user selected
// uniform electric field.
//
// We discretize the electric potential with H1 finite elements. The electric
// field E is discretized with Nedelec finite elements.
//
// Compile with: make volta
//
// Sample runs:
//
//   A cylinder at constant voltage in a square, grounded metal pipe:
//      mpirun -np 4 volta -m ../../data/square-disc.mesh
//                         -dbcs '1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8' -dbcv '0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1'
//

//                         -dbcs '1 2 3 4'
//
//   A cylindrical voltaic pile within a grounded metal sphere:
//      mpirun -np 4 volta -dbcs 1 -vp '0 -0.5 0 0 0.5 0 0.2 1'
//
//   A charged sphere, off-center, within a grounded metal sphere:
//      mpirun -np 4 volta -dbcs 1 -cs '0.0 0.5 0.0 0.2 2.0e-11'
//
//   A dielectric sphere suspended in a uniform electric field:
//      mpirun -np 4 volta -dbcs 1 -dbcg -ds '0.0 0.0 0.0 0.2 8.0'
//
//   An example using piecewise constant permittivity values
