I have the analytical solution for this case. The results from APE and LEE solvers agree with each other but the amplitude is quite different from the analytical solution. I have included a more detailed summary (pdf) and all the case setup files in the zip file. I was wondering if I messed up the setup for the cases or is there some kind of scaling on the variables that I am not aware of? Thank you all. *YiLin Liu * *403-397-3457* *liuyilin.liu(a)gmail.com <liuyilin.liu(a)gmail.com>* MASc Student at CML <https://cml.mech.ubc.ca/> UBC

I noticed the p-adaptive algorithm can be used to optimize the computational cost but I found practically no information on how to use it (in the user's guide). Can anyone send me a simple example on how to use it? Right now, the solver part of my .xml file looks like this: <SOLVERINFO> </SOLVERINFO> Many thanks for your help! Niccolò Tonicello,

Can you please advise me as to when the servers will be restored?

Mattermost members exceeded? other alternatives?, Linear multi-step boundary conditions

What other alternatives should I consider to get feedback about ideas or questions? It seems like the email list gets minimal attention (historically) especially for someone who is peripherally involved? I would like to throw out some ideas every once in a while, but I'm not sure the best place to put them. My current one has to do with implementing time dependent boundary conditions that are a function of the time stepping method. I.e. for a boundary condition that manages a state similar to a time stepping method should it be constrained to the type and kind of time stepping method. For example, if a Linear multistep method such as adams bashforth is employed. Any boundary condition that uses some derived quantity to define the boundary condition could be defined with a similar method or if you use a different method (Backwards finite difference) wouldn't you lose accuracy at the boundary? How does that affect the global solution? Maybe the broader topic is coupling different fidelity models? Because any time dependent boundary condition that uses derived quantities is essentially solving some kind model and applying it at the boundary. Happy random quandaries, Regards, ~Kurt -- Kurt Sansom
