panzer: Access to physics parameters from closure model factory

[kincaidkc]

Question

Good afternoon,

I am a developer on a multiphysics package using Trilinos as a base. As we add different types of physics to the code, we are adding additional closures to the factory. As we do this, we are often finding that we need to have entries in multiple places in the input file, e.g. both in the physics parameters and in the closure model list, or put things in the user parameters list that is accessible in both locations (which we have been advised to avoid). The root issue is that we can't seem to find a way to access the physics parameters from the closure model factory, which seems like a good feature to have, since the physics parameters may influence which closures are to be built. Is there a way to access the physics parameters from the closure model factory that we are missing?

Thanks,
Kellis
