## Member Function Documentation

virtual void applyBeforeApplying | ( | operator_type & |  | ) | const`[pure virtual]`

This method modifies an operator before it is applied to an array so that will satisfy the given condition.

Implemented in DirichletBC, and NeumannBC.

virtual void applyAfterApplying | ( | array_type & |  | ) | const`[pure virtual]`

This method modifies an array so that it satisfies the given condition.

Implemented in DirichletBC, and NeumannBC.

virtual void applyBeforeSolving | ( | operator_type & | ,
|  | array_type & | rhs
| ) |  | const`[pure virtual]`

This method modifies an operator before the linear system is solved so that will satisfy the given condition.

Implemented in DirichletBC, and NeumannBC.

virtual void applyAfterSolving | ( | array_type & |  | ) | const`[pure virtual]`

This method modifies an array so that it satisfies the given condition.

Implemented in DirichletBC, and NeumannBC.

virtual void setTime | ( | Time | t | ) | `[pure virtual]`

This method sets the current time for time-dependent boundary conditions.

Implemented in DirichletBC, and NeumannBC.
