Detailed Description

Base class field generator for MixAndMatchEnv in variable-cell SCFT.

The classes Environment, FieldGenerator, and MixAndMatchEnv in the Prdc namespace are extensions of EnvironmentBase, FieldGeneratorBase, and MixAndMatchEnvTmpl in the Pscf namespace, respectively. These Prdc classes are designed to simply add a feature that is not defined in the corresponding Pscf classes: the ability to calculate, store, and write an environment-modified stress that will be used to optimize the lattice parameters of the periodic unit cell.

Therefore, this class is simply a subclass of FieldGeneratorBase that defines two additional methods, stress() and modifyStress(), which are used by Prdc::MixAndMatchEnv.

Member Function Documentation

◆ stress()

double Pscf::Prdc::FieldGenerator::stress ( int paramId) const
virtual

Get contribution to the stress from this imposed field.

If the imposed field(s) change in a non-affine manner under changes in the lattice parameters, then the "stress" used to optimize the lattice parameters must contain additional terms arising from the imposed field(s). Thus, this method may return a nonzero value regardless of the Type of this object. A return value of zero indicates that the imposed field(s) stretch affinely under a change in the given lattice parameter.

The default implementation of the method raises an error. If a FieldGenerator subclass is designed to be used only in a rigid box, then the subclass does not need to redefine this method, as it will not ever be called. But subclasses must define the method if they are to be used with non-rigid boxes, or else the error message in this default implementation will be triggered.

Parameters
paramIdindex of the lattice parameter being varied

Reimplemented in Pscf::Prdc::FilmFieldGenExtBase< D >, Pscf::Prdc::FilmFieldGenMaskBase< D >, Pscf::Rpc::FilmFieldGenExt< D >, Pscf::Rpc::FilmFieldGenMask< D >, Pscf::Rpg::FilmFieldGenExt< D >, and Pscf::Rpg::FilmFieldGenMask< D >.

◆ modifyStress()

double Pscf::Prdc::FieldGenerator::modifyStress ( int paramId,
double stress ) const
virtual

Modify stress to minimize a property other than fHelmholtz.

It may be preferable with certain imposed fields to minimize a
property other than fHelmholtz with respect to the lattice
parameters. For instance, in a thin film it is useful to minimize the excess free energy per unit area, (fHelmholtz - fRef) * Delta, where fRef is a reference free energy and Delta is the film thickness. The information needed to perform such a modification is often contained within the FieldGenerator objects. Therefore, this method allows subclasses of FieldGenerator to modify the stress.

The method is called by the MixAndMatchEnv object that owns this object, and the return value should be used to optimize the lattice parameters.

By default, this method will simply return the value of stress that is provided as an input, without performing a modification, which corresponds to a stress that will be used to minimize fHelmholtz.

Parameters
paramIdindex of the lattice parameter with this stress
stressstress value calculated by Mixture object
