Class DummyStepInterpolator

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Externalizable, java.io.Serializable, StepInterpolator

    public class DummyStepInterpolator
    extends AbstractStepInterpolator
    This class is a step interpolator that does nothing.

    This class is used when the "step handler" set up by the user does not need step interpolation. It does not recompute the state when setInterpolatedTime is called. This implies the interpolated state is always the state at the end of the current step.

    Since:
    1.2

    • Constructor Detail

      • DummyStepInterpolator

        public DummyStepInterpolator()
        Simple constructor. This constructor builds an instance that is not usable yet, the AbstractStepInterpolator.reinitialize protected method should be called before using the instance in order to initialize the internal arrays. This constructor is used only in order to delay the initialization in some cases. As an example, the EmbeddedRungeKuttaIntegrator uses the prototyping design pattern to create the step interpolators by cloning an uninitialized model and latter initializing the copy.
      • DummyStepInterpolator

        public DummyStepInterpolator​(double[] y,
                                     double[] yDot,
                                     boolean forward)
        Simple constructor.
        Parameters:
        y - reference to the integrator array holding the state at the end of the step
        yDot - reference to the integrator array holding the state derivative at some arbitrary point within the step
        forward - integration direction indicator
      • DummyStepInterpolator

        public DummyStepInterpolator​(DummyStepInterpolator interpolator)
        Copy constructor.
        Parameters:
        interpolator - interpolator to copy from. The copy is a deep copy: its arrays are separated from the original arrays of the instance
    • Method Detail

      • computeInterpolatedStateAndDerivatives

        protected void computeInterpolatedStateAndDerivatives​(double theta,
                                                              double oneMinusThetaH)
        Compute the state at the interpolated time. In this class, this method does nothing: the interpolated state is always the state at the end of the current step.
        Specified by:
        computeInterpolatedStateAndDerivatives in class AbstractStepInterpolator
        Parameters:
        theta - normalized interpolation abscissa within the step (theta is zero at the previous time step and one at the current time step)
        oneMinusThetaH - time gap between the interpolated time and the current time
