Five Point Stencil

Routine Name: solveFivePointStencil

Author: Philip Nelson

Language: C++

Description

fivePointStencil solves Poisson’s Equation for an arbitrary mesh size and forcing function

Input

solveFivePointStencil(T a, T b, F f) requires:

• T a - the start boundary
• T b - the end boundary
• F f - the forcing function
• T - template param for the type
• N - template param for the dimension of the mesh

Output

An array with the approximated solution

Code

template <typename T, std::size_t N, typename F>
auto solveFivePointStencil(T a, T b, F f)
{
  auto mesh = generateMesh<double, N>(a, b);
  auto bv = initMeshB(mesh, f);
  auto stencil = fivePointStencil<double, N-2>();
  auto res = stencil.solveLinearSystemLU(bv);
  return res;
}

solveFivePointStencil relies on: fivePointStencil| generateMesh| initMeshB| solveLinearSystemLU|

Example

int main()
{
  auto answer = solveFivePointStencil<double, 5>(0.0, 1.0, sin);
  auto finalMat = arrayToMat(answer);
  std::cout << "Answer in Matrix Form\n" << finalMat << std::endl;
}
