PenaltyPeriodicSegmentalConstraint

PenaltyPeriodicSegmentalConstraint enforces macro-micro periodic conditions between secondary and primary sides of a mortar interface using a penalty approach (no Lagrange multipliers needed). Must be used alongside PenaltyEqualValueConstraint.

Description

This Constraint demonstrates the usage of the scalar augmentation class described in MortarScalarBase. The other terms in the weak form are handled using the PenaltyEqualValueConstraint as described below.

In comparison to Dirichlet or Neumann conditions, periodic boundary conditions have been found to typically be the most accurate (fastest converging) approach for applying macro-to-micro scale transition constraints. Several methods for imposing periodic boundary conditions exist, each with pros and cons. For example, the periodic constraint will only be satisfied approximately by this method. Alternatively, the periodic condition can be imposed by the Lagrange multiplier method using PeriodicSegmentalConstraint or one of the other periodic approaches in MOOSE.

This class provides the macro-micro coupling terms to implement periodic boundary conditions using the penalty method, which is a subset of the Discontinuous Galerkin method proposed within Aduloju and Truster (2020). Alternatively, these equations impose an average value of the diffusive flux of a spatial variable over a domain using surface rather than volume integrals.

The strong form is posed over domain $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-93f30f94-1ca5-4ab6-a3aa-1fab784a177a");katex.render("\\Omega", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ with opposing boundary pairs $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-b4a2242b-1167-4db3-8a0e-750eeca8b923");katex.render("\\Gamma^+", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ and $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-570d5ceb-1021-49a3-8129-d383728f245e");katex.render("\\Gamma^-", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ is written in PeriodicSegmentalConstraint for the mortar method. The corresponding weak form is (using inner-product notation):

(1)var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-5d4b78e1-7b59-4663-b8ed-11227fc9a779");katex.render("\\begin{aligned} (\\nabla \\psi, D \\nabla u)_\\Omega + \\langle \\llbracket \\psi \\rrbracket,\\tau \\llbracket u \\rrbracket \\rangle _{\\Gamma^+} - \\langle \\llbracket \\psi \\rrbracket,\\tau \\vec{\\epsilon} \\cdot \\llbracket \\vec{x} \\rrbracket \\rangle _{\\Gamma^+} = 0\\\\ -\\langle \\vec{\\kappa} \\cdot \\llbracket \\vec{x} \\rrbracket, \\tau \\llbracket u \\rrbracket \\rangle _{\\Gamma^+} +\\langle \\vec{\\kappa} \\cdot \\llbracket \\vec{x} \\rrbracket, \\tau \\vec{\\epsilon} \\cdot \\llbracket \\vec{x} \\rrbracket \\rangle _{\\Gamma^+} = \\langle \\vec{\\kappa} \\cdot \\llbracket \\vec{x} \\rrbracket, \\vec{\\sigma} \\cdot \\hat{n} \\rangle _{\\Gamma^+} \\end{aligned}", element, {displayMode:true,throwOnError:false});

where $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-45170f10-10b0-4e58-ade8-258515a367a1");katex.render("\\epsilon", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ is the average diffusive gradient to be solved for, and $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-f95027f1-b9eb-404d-8836-a0bfc151c4de");katex.render("\\sigma", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ is the average diffusive flux imposed through the penalty constraint. Also, $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-42697c99-5075-4fa0-aed6-8d1f8e55ef71");katex.render("\\psi", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ is the test function of the diffusive variable $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-a8ca5180-1c31-45a6-8be9-70adec7d0549");katex.render("u", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ , and $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-ab6aacdb-811b-4db0-a2d7-a294501134b9");katex.render("\\vec{\\kappa}", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ is an arbitrary test vector (spatially uniform) to impose the constraint involving the scalar variable $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-7a0dea1a-42bb-4725-bb8d-bc7337488623");katex.render("\\vec{\\epsilon}", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ . The jump operator is defined for a single valued or vector valued field as $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-d0dff8a8-a864-425b-ad2c-c448b6d411ae");katex.render("\\llbracket u \\rrbracket = u^{+} - u^{-}", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ and $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-759352de-fd0f-48c0-b64a-0ce7b976b723");katex.render("\\llbracket \\vec{x} \\rrbracket = \\vec{x}^{+} - \\vec{x}^{-}", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ , respectively. Finally, $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-7861d658-191a-4d90-9c55-6ed139162698");katex.render("\\tau", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ is a penalty parameter to impose the constraint.

Note: The macro-to-micro constraint $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-06c886fe-970b-4de7-a8a0-f7d4896cdee7");katex.render("\\llbracket u \\rrbracket = \\vec{\\epsilon} \\cdot \\llbracket \\vec{x} \\rrbracket", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ will only be satisfied approximately by this method, depending on the size of the penalty parameter.

Input File Parameters

The terms in the weak form Eq. (1) are handled by several different classes. The volume integrals are handled by Diffusion or MatDiffusion. The surface term $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-1b233c64-c28d-4498-95c9-06c56d0fad57");katex.render("\\langle \\llbracket w \\rrbracket,\\tau \\llbracket u \\rrbracket \\rangle _{\\Gamma^+}", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ is computed by PenaltyEqualValueConstraint. The remaining four terms are handled by this class.

Two of these objects are shown in the input file below:

The applied macroscale diffusive flux $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-f6b969ee-bdad-4967-9b58-1be0b5d5946f");katex.render("\\sigma", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ is applied as the sigma vector via an auxiliary scalar. The computed macroscale diffusive gradient $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-749aec9d-bc71-4ee3-b360-c1e9d4a93cc5");katex.render("\\epsilon", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ is assigned in a scalar variable epsilon. Both of these scalars should have the same number of components as the spatial dimension of $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-b561293c-b36f-4563-86f3-543c565388c1");katex.render("\\Omega", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ . The volume integral of the gradient of the primary field will be constrained to $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-63267690-35d4-45c6-8c99-776f2e1eb1c2");katex.render("\\epsilon", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ in a weak sense, depending on the size of the penalty parameter penalty_value.

Also, the coupled_scalar must be assigned the same scalar as epsilon.

The microscale diffusion variable is specified using the primary_variable parameter. If the solution values to be matched are between different variables, the secondary_variable parameter can also be supplied. These same parameters must be used for the micro-micro coupling terms in the PenaltyEqualValueConstraint object.

The generation of the lower-dimensional mesh surfaces for $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-1e73b1c8-7b51-4f2b-b548-05ef1948bd65");katex.render("\\Gamma^+", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ and $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-dae46ac9-b0ae-43f5-be13-b937890b15bf");katex.render("\\Gamma^-", element, {displayMode:false,throwOnError:false});$ are described in the Mortar Constraint system. The projection between two separated surfaces on opposite sides of the domain are naturally handled by the system. This is true for both PenaltyEqualValueConstraint and PenaltyPeriodicSegmentalConstraint. In fact, the meshes can be nonconforming as long as the geometry is conforming, although the choice of penalty_value becomes more delicate. Note that the periodic parameter is NOT needed, but if it is applied then it should be the same for BOTH PenaltyEqualValueConstraint and PenaltyPeriodicSegmentalConstraint.

note:Parallel offsets

Due to current restrictions on AutomaticMortarGeneration, the opposing surfaces must be directly opposite along the unit normal direction.
