Error criterion

Question: If I want to improve my solution, where should Irefine the mesh in priority?

2 methods:

To display areas where the energy is varying

To check the local balance of conservation laws

Flux 10.4 provides:

Global monitoring of error

Local chart of error

Error criterions for all application:

Magnetic, Thermal, Electric

Static, Transient and Harmonic

2D, 3D and Skewed
