NAME

       form - representation of a finite element bilinear form

DESCRIPTION

       The  form  class  groups  four  sparse matrix, associated to a bilinear form on two finite
       element spaces:

              a: U*V   ----> IR
                (u,v)  |---> a(u,v)

       The operator A associated to the bilinear form is defined by:

              A: U  ----> V'
                 u  |---> A(u)

       where u and v are fields (see field(2)), and A(u) is such that a(u,v)=<A(u),v> for  all  u
       in  U and v in V and where <.,.> denotes the duality product between V and V'.  Since V is
       a finite dimensional spaces, the duality product is the euclidian product in IR^dim(V).

       Since both U and V are finite dimensional spaces, the linear operator can  be  represented
       by  a  matrix.   The  form  class  is represented by four sparse matrix in csr format (see
       csr(2)), associated to unknown and blocked degrees of freedom of  origin  and  destination
       spaces (see space(2)).

EXAMPLE

       The  operator A associated to a bilinear form a(.,.) by the relation (Au,v) = a(u,v) could
       be applied by using a sample matrix notation A*u, as shown by the following code:

             geo omega("square");
             space V (omega,"P1");
             form a (V,V,"grad_grad");
             field uh = interpolate (fct, V);
             field vh = a*uh;
             cout << v;

       The form-field vh=a*uh operation is equivalent to the following matrix-vector operations:

            vh.set_u() = a.uu()*uh.u() + a.ub()*uh.b();
            vh.set_b() = a.bu()*uh.u() + a.bb()*uh.b();

ALGEBRA

       Forms, as matrices (see csr(2)), support linear algebra: Adding or substracting two  forms
       writes a+b and a-b, respectively, and multiplying a form by a field uh writes a*uh.  Thus,
       any linear combination of forms is available.

WEIGHTED FORM

       A weighted form is a form with an extra weight function w(x), e.g.:

                          /
                         |
              a(uh,vh) = |       grad(uh).grad(vh) w(x) dx
                         |
                        / Omega

       In the present implementation, w can be any  field,  function  or  class-function  or  any
       nonlinear field expression (see field(2)).  As the integration cannot be performed exactly
       in general, a quadrature formula can be supplied.  This feature is extensively  used  when
       solving nonlinear problems.
