Detailed Description

This class implements an "error estimator" based on the difference between the approximate and exact solution. In theory the quadrature error in this estimate should be much lower than the approximation error in other estimates, so this estimator can be used to calculate effectivity.

This virtual function can be redefined in derived classes, but by default it calls estimate_error repeatedly to calculate the requested error vectors.

Currently this function ignores the error_norm.weight() values because it calculates each variable's error individually, unscaled.

The user selects which errors get computed by filling a map with error vectors: If errors_per_cell[&system][v] exists, it will be filled with the error values in variable v of system

FIXME: This is a default implementation - derived classes should reimplement it for efficiency.

Reimplemented in libMesh::UniformRefinementEstimator.

This virtual function can be redefined in derived classes, but by default computes the sum of the error_per_cell for each system in the equation_systems.

Currently this function ignores the error_norm member variable, and uses the function argument error_norms instead.

This function is named estimate_errors instead of estimate_error because otherwise C++ can get confused.

SystemNorm libMesh::ErrorEstimator::error_norm [inherited]

When estimating the error in a single system, the error_norm is used to control the scaling and norm choice for each variable. Not all estimators will support all norm choices. The default scaling is for all variables to be weighted equally. The default norm choice depends on the error estimator.

Part of this functionality was supported via component_scale and sobolev_order in older libMesh versions, and a small part was supported via component_mask in even older versions. Hopefully the encapsulation here will allow us to avoid changing this API again.
