Class EventState

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.apache.commons.math.ode.events.EventState

public class EventState
extends java.lang.Object

This class handles the state for one event handler during integration steps.

Each time the integrator proposes a step, the event handler switching function should be checked. This class handles the state of one handler during one integration step, with references to the state at the end of the preceding step. This information is used to decide if the handler should trigger an event or not during the proposed step.

Constructor Detail

EventState

public EventState(EventHandler handler,
                  double maxCheckInterval,
                  double convergence,
                  int maxIterationCount,
                  UnivariateRealSolver solver)
Simple constructor.

Parameters:
handler - event handler
maxCheckInterval - maximal time interval between switching function checks (this interval prevents missing sign changes in case the integration steps becomes very large)
convergence - convergence threshold in the event time search
maxIterationCount - upper limit of the iteration count in the event time search
solver - Root-finding algorithm to use to detect state events
Method Detail

getEventHandler

public EventHandler getEventHandler()
Get the underlying event handler.

Returns:
underlying event handler

getMaxCheckInterval

public double getMaxCheckInterval()
Get the maximal time interval between events handler checks.

Returns:
maximal time interval between events handler checks

getConvergence

public double getConvergence()
Get the convergence threshold for event localization.

Returns:
convergence threshold for event localization

getMaxIterationCount

public int getMaxIterationCount()
Get the upper limit in the iteration count for event localization.

Returns:
upper limit in the iteration count for event localization

reinitializeBegin

public void reinitializeBegin(StepInterpolator interpolator)
Reinitialize the beginning of the step.

Parameters:
interpolator - valid for the current step

evaluateStep

public boolean evaluateStep(StepInterpolator interpolator)
                     throws ConvergenceException
Evaluate the impact of the proposed step on the event handler.

Parameters:
interpolator - step interpolator for the proposed step
Returns:
true if the event handler triggers an event before the end of the proposed step
Throws:
ConvergenceException - if an event cannot be located

getEventTime

public double getEventTime()
Get the occurrence time of the event triggered in the current step.

Returns:
occurrence time of the event triggered in the current step or infinity if no events are triggered

stepAccepted

public void stepAccepted(double t,
                         double[] y)
Acknowledge the fact the step has been accepted by the integrator.

Parameters:
t - value of the independent time variable at the end of the step
y - array containing the current value of the state vector at the end of the step

stop

public boolean stop()
Check if the integration should be stopped at the end of the current step.

Returns:
true if the integration should be stopped

reset

public boolean reset(double t,
                     double[] y)
Let the event handler reset the state if it wants.

Parameters:
t - value of the independent time variable at the beginning of the next step
y - array were to put the desired state vector at the beginning of the next step
Returns:
true if the integrator should reset the derivatives too
