Interface IInitialCondition<T>

Namespace

AiDotNet.PhysicsInformed.Interfaces

Assembly

AiDotNet.dll

Defines initial conditions for time-dependent PDEs.

public interface IInitialCondition<T>

Type Parameters

T

The numeric type.

Remarks

For Beginners: Initial conditions specify the state of the system at the starting time (t=0). For example, in a heat equation, you might specify the initial temperature distribution.

Properties

Name

Gets the name of the initial condition.

string Name { get; }

Property Value

string

Methods

ComputeInitialValue(T[])

Computes the initial condition value at the given spatial location.

T[] ComputeInitialValue(T[] spatialInputs)

Parameters

spatialInputs T[]

The spatial coordinates (excluding time).

Returns

T[]

The initial value at that location.

IsAtInitialTime(T[])

Determines if a point is at the initial time.

bool IsAtInitialTime(T[] inputs)

Parameters

inputs T[]

The coordinates to check (typically the last dimension is time).

Returns

bool

True if the point is at t=0.
