CoupledTiedValueConstraint

under construction:Undocumented Class

The CoupledTiedValueConstraint has not been documented, if you would like to contribute to MOOSE by writing documentation, please see Documenting MOOSE. The content contained on this page explains the typical documentation associated with a MooseObject; however, what is contained is ultimately determined by what is necessary to make the documentation clear for users.

!syntax description /Constraints/CoupledTiedValueConstraint

Input Parameters

  • variableThe name of the variable that this constraint is applied to.

    C++ Type:NonlinearVariableName

    Description:The name of the variable that this constraint is applied to.

  • slaveThe boundary ID associated with the slave side

    C++ Type:BoundaryName

    Description:The boundary ID associated with the slave side

  • master_variableThe variable on the master side of the domain

    C++ Type:std::vector

    Description:The variable on the master side of the domain

  • masterThe boundary ID associated with the master side

    C++ Type:BoundaryName

    Description:The boundary ID associated with the master side

Required Parameters

  • tangential_toleranceTangential distance to extend edges of contact surfaces

    C++ Type:double

    Description:Tangential distance to extend edges of contact surfaces

  • normal_smoothing_distanceDistance from edge in parametric coordinates over which to smooth contact normal

    C++ Type:double

    Description:Distance from edge in parametric coordinates over which to smooth contact normal

  • scaling1scaling factor to be applied to constraint equations

    Default:1

    C++ Type:double

    Description:scaling factor to be applied to constraint equations

  • normal_smoothing_methodMethod to use to smooth normals (edge_based|nodal_normal_based)

    C++ Type:std::string

    Description:Method to use to smooth normals (edge_based|nodal_normal_based)

  • execute_onLINEARThe 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.

    Default:LINEAR

    C++ Type:ExecFlagEnum

    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.

  • orderFIRSTThe finite element order used for projections

    Default:FIRST

    C++ Type:MooseEnum

    Description:The finite element order used for projections

Optional Parameters

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

    C++ Type:std::vector

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

  • enableTrueSet the enabled status of the MooseObject.

    Default:True

    C++ Type:bool

    Description:Set the enabled status of the MooseObject.

  • use_displaced_meshTrueWhether 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:True

    C++ Type:bool

    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.
