public RectangularPulse()

Method Detail

evaluateAt

public double evaluateAt(double time)

Description copied from class: PulseTemporalShape

This evaluates the dimensionless, discretised pulse function on a grid needed to evaluate the heat source in the difference scheme.

Specified by:

evaluateAt in class PulseTemporalShape

Parameters:

time - the time measured from the start of the laser pulse.

Returns:

set

public void set(NumericPropertyKeyword type,
                NumericProperty property)

Description copied from class: Accessible

An abstract method, which must be overriden to gain access over setting the values of all relevant (selected by the programmer) NumericProperties in subclasses of Accessible. Typically this involves a switch statement that goes through the different options for the type and invokes different set(...) methods to update the matching NumericProperty with property.

Specified by:

set in class Accessible

Parameters:

type - the type, which must be equal by definition to property.getType().

property - the property, which contains new information.

copy

public PulseTemporalShape copy()

Specified by:

copy in class PulseTemporalShape

getRequiredDiscretisation

public int getRequiredDiscretisation()

Specified by:

getRequiredDiscretisation in class PulseTemporalShape
