MooseTypes

The MooseTypes header contains several names central to automatic differentiation in MOOSE. It defines the following macros:

  • ADReal

  • ADRealVectorValue

  • ADPoint

  • ADRealTensorValue

  • ADRankTwoTensor

  • ADRankFourTensor

which resolve to either Real or ADReal based objects depending on whether compute_stage is equivalent to RESIDUAL or JACOBIAN. compute_stage is a template argument to AD consuming and producing objects like ADKernel and ADMaterial respectively.
