Metis

class classes.Metis.Metis

Conducts all the computations, stores Input-Parameters, sets up variables, initialises classes and solving methods: Computation parameters have to be given in an input-file one-to-one. Leaving out one or another will immediately lead to wrong or non-existing results. Postprocessing parameters can be given in an input-file (not necessary for computing). Solution quantities will be filled by Metis. Error analysis parameters are only necessary if you want to conduct an error analysis for several timestep-sizes.
