Detailed Description

The LpErrorEstimator class compares the solution to a known coefficient.

This class can be used, for example, to adapt a mesh to a non-trivial initial condition in a time-dependent simulation. It can also be used to force refinement in the neighborhood of small features before switching to a more traditional error estimator.

The LpErrorEstimator supports either scalar or vector coefficients and works both in serial and in parallel.

mfem::LpErrorEstimator::LpErrorEstimator	(	int	p,
		GridFunction &	sol
	)

inline

Construct a new LpErrorEstimator object for a scalar field.

Parameters

p	Integer which selects which Lp norm to use.
