Laplace equation on subdomain
Dear Firedrakers, As an intermediate part of fluid-structure interaction problem, I would like to solve Laplace equation (with zero Neumann boundary conditions) on a subdomain of the full domain. For that reason I define the step function that is 1 in the subdomain of interest and 0 elsewhere. Multiplying LHS of the weak form (with trial function) by the step function causes a solver error. How can I correct it? Code and error listing are below. Thank you, Tomasz from firedrake import * nx = 17; ny = 8; Lx = 2.; Ly = 1. mesh = RectangleMesh( nx, ny, Lx, Ly ) V = FunctionSpace( mesh, "CG", 1 ) V_DG0 = FunctionSpace( mesh, "DG", 0 ) def Heaviside( zero_on_left=True, Lp=0. ): sign = 1. if zero_on_left == False: sign = -1. Hx = Function( V_DG0 ) Hx_expr = Expression( "0.5*(1.0 + copysign( 1.0, sign*(x[0]-Lp) ))", sign=sign, Lp=Lp ) Hx.interpolate(Hx_expr) return Hx; I_f = Heaviside( zero_on_left=False, Lp=1. ) phi = Function( V ) trial = TrialFunction( V ) v = TestFunction( V ) a = dot( grad(trial), grad(v) ) * I_f * dx # step function causes error here !!!

The problem is that you've knocked out a part of your operator so that it's: laplace 0 0 0 Particularly, it's zero on the diagonal outside the subdomain. To correct this, you'll need to define your own custom boundary condition class that inherits from DirichletBC that identifies the nodes that are outside the subdomain and impose strong conditions there. I think we discussed this when you visited imperial a while ago. That way you'll end up with: laplace 0 0 I with the identity on the diagonal outside the subdomain instead. As to your comment (how to write 0*v*dx more succinctly) use: L = Constant(0)*v*dx Thanks, Lawrence
Ok, I extended the BCs. I'm getting indices out of bounds error. I suppose this is because I enforce the BCs in DG0, and then solve in CG space. How can I map it from one to another?
