The Lame Class

The Lame class defines a Lame equation problem:

$\displaystyle -(\mu (u\hackscore{i,j}+u\hackscore{j,i})+\lambda u\hackscore{k,k}\delta\hackscore{ij})\hackscore{j} = F\hackscore{i}-\sigma\hackscore{ij,j}$ (97)

with natural boundary conditions:

$\displaystyle n\hackscore{j}(\mu \; (u\hackscore{i,j}+u\hackscore{j,i})+\lambda...
...e{k,k}\delta\hackscore{ij}) = f\hackscore{i}+n\hackscore{j}\sigma\hackscore{ij}$ (98)

and constraint

$\displaystyle u\hackscore{i}=r\hackscore{i}$    where $\displaystyle q\hackscore{i}>0$ (99)

$ \mu$ , $ \lambda$ have to be a scalar Data object in the general FunctionSpace, $ F$ has to be a vector Data object in the general FunctionSpace, $ \sigma$ has to be a tensor Data object in the general FunctionSpace, $ f$ must be a vector Data object in the boundary FunctionSpace, and $ q$ and $ r$ must be a vector Data object in the solution FunctionSpace or must be mapped or interpolated into the particular FunctionSpace.
