prefix

You can get prefix by calling GetPrefix method.

idof

Degree of freedom number.

nodalValueType

Type of boundary condition. It can take following values:

  • Constant => It means boundary condition is constant in space and time
  • Space => It means boundary condition changes in space direction, but constant in time direction
  • Time => It means boundary condition changes in time direction, but constant in space direction
  • SpaceTime => It means boundary condition changes in both space and time directions
isUserFunction

If the boundary condition is specified through UserFunction, then it isUserFunction should be set to .TRUE..

isNormal

In vector variable problem when the normal component is given, then you can set isNormal to .TRUE.

isTangent

In vector variable problem when the tangent component is given, then you can set isTangent to .TRUE.

useExternal

When the boundary condition is stored outside the AbstractBC_.
