^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This is best shown with some sample code that sets up a time integrator and
asks it to step forwards by some interval ``dt``. The user needs to supply at
minimum, the right-hand side function using the ``TimeIntegrator::set_rhs()``
function. By using the ``TimeIntegrator::set_post_update()`` function, a user
can also supply a post update function which is called on state data immediately
before evaluating the right-hand side. This post update function is a good
opportunity to fill boundary conditions for Runge-Kutta stage solution data so that
ghost cells are filled when the right hand side function is called on that solution data.
asks it to step forward by some interval ``dt``. The user needs to supply the

Using SUNDIALS
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The AMReX Time Integration interface also supports a SUNDIALS backend that
wraps both the explicit Runge-Kutta (ERK) and multirate (MRI) integration
schemes in the SUNDIALS ARKODE package. To use either of them, the user needs
to compile AMReX with `USE_SUNDIALS=TRUE` and use SUNDIALS v. 6.0 or later.

There are only minor changes to the code above required to use the SUNDIALS
interface. The first change is that the integration datatype is now a
`Vector<MultiFab>` type instead of simply `MultiFab`. The reason for
introducing a `Vector<MultiFab>` in this case, is to permit integrating state
data with different spatial centering (e.g. cell centered, face centered, node
centered) concurrently. Shown here is sample code equivalent to the code above,
suitable for the SUNDIALS explicit Runge-Kutta integrator:

.. highlight:: c++

::

#include <AMReX_TimeIntegrator.H>

Vector<MultiFab> Sborder; // MultiFab(s) containing old-time state data and ghost cells
Vector<MultiFab> Snew; // MultiFab(s) where we want new-time state data
Geometry geom; // The domain (or level) geometry

// [Fill Sborder here]

// Create a time integrator that will work with
// MultiFabs with the same BoxArray, DistributionMapping,
// and number of components as the state_data MultiFab.
TimeIntegrator<Vector<MultiFab> > integrator(Sborder);

// Create a RHS source function we will integrate
auto source_fun = [&](Vector<MultiFab>& rhs, const Vector<MultiFab>& state, const Real time){
// User function to calculate the rhs MultiFab given the state MultiFab
fill_rhs(rhs, state, time);
};

// Create a function to call after updating a state
auto post_update_fun = [&](Vector<MultiFab>& S_data, const Real time) {
// Call user function to update state MultiFab, e.g. fill BCs
post_update(S_data, time, geom);
};

// Attach the right hand side and post-update functions
// to the integrator
integrator.set_rhs(source_fun);
integrator.set_post_update(post_update_fun);

// integrate forward one step from `time` by `dt` to fill S_new
integrator.advance(Sborder, S_new, time, dt);

Afterwards, to select the ERK integrator, one needs only to add the following
two input parameters at runtime:

::

integration.type = SUNDIALS
integration.sundials.strategy = ERK

If instead one wishes to use the SUNDIALS multirate integrator, then the user
will need to use the following runtime inputs parameters:

::

integration.type = SUNDIALS
integration.sundials.strategy = MRI

In addition, to set up the multirate problem, the user needs to supply a fast
timescale right-hand-side function in addition to the usual right hand side
function (which is interpreted as the slow timescale right-hand side). The user
will also need to supply the ratio of the slow timestep size to the fast
timestep size, which is an integer corresponding to the number of fast
timesteps the integrator will take per every slow timestep. An example code
snippet would look as follows:

.. highlight:: c++

::

#include <AMReX_TimeIntegrator.H>

Vector<MultiFab> Sborder; // Vector of MultiFab(s) containing old-time state data and ghost cells
Vector<MultiFab> Snew; // Vector of MultiFab(s) where we want new-time state data
Geometry geom; // The domain (or level) geometry

// [Fill Sborder here]

// Create a time integrator that will work with
// MultiFabs with the same BoxArray, DistributionMapping,
// and number of components as the state_data MultiFab.
TimeIntegrator<Vector<MultiFab> > integrator(Sborder);

// Create a slow timescale RHS function we will integrate
auto rhs_fun = [&](Vector<MultiFab>& rhs, const Vector<MultiFab>& state, const Real time){
// User function to calculate the rhs MultiFab given the state MultiFab(s)
fill_rhs(rhs, state, time);
};

// Create a fast timescale RHS function to integrate
auto rhs_fun_fast = [&](Vector<MultiFab>& rhs,
const Vector<MultiFab>& stage_data,
const Vector<MultiFab>& state, const Real time) {
// User function to calculate the fast-timescale rhs MultiFab given
// the state MultiFab and stage_data which holds the previously
// accessed slow-timescale stage state data.
fill_fast_rhs(rhs, stage_data, state, time);
};

// The post update function is called after updating state data or
// immediately before using state data to calculate a fast or slow right hand side.
// (it is a good place to e.g. fill boundary conditions)
auto post_update_fun = [&](Vector<MultiFab>& S_data, const Real time) {
// Call user function to update state MultiFab(s), e.g. fill BCs
post_update(S_data, time, geom);
};

// Attach the slow and fast right hand side functions to integrator
integrator.set_rhs(rhs_fun);
integrator.set_fast_rhs(rhs_fun_fast);

// This sets the ratio of slow timestep size to fast timestep size as an integer,
// or equivalently, the number of fast timesteps per slow timestep.
integrator.set_slow_fast_timestep_ratio(2);

// Attach the post update function to the integrator
integrator.set_post_update(post_update_fun);

// integrate forward one step from `time` by `dt` to fill S_new
integrator.advance(Sborder, S_new, time, dt);

// integrate forward one step from `time` by `dt` to fill Snew
integrator.advance(Sold, Snew, time, dt);

Using SUNDIALS
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The AMReX Time Integration interface also supports a SUNDIALS backend that
provides explicit, implicit, and implicit-explicit (ImEx) Runge-Kutta methods
as well a multirate (MRI) methods from the ARKODE package in SUNDIALS.
To use SUNDIALS integrators, the user needs to compile AMReX with
``USE_SUNDIALS=TRUE`` and use SUNDIALS v6.0 or later.

The SUNDIALS interface supports ``MultiFab`` or ``Vector<MultiFab>`` data
types. Using a ``Vector<MultiFab>`` permits integrating state data with
different spatial centering (e.g. cell centered, face centered, node centered)
concurrently.

The same code as above can be used with SUNDIALS explicit or implicit
Runge-Kutta methods without any modification. To select a SUNDIALS explicit
Runge-Kutta integrator, one needs only to add the following two input parameters
at runtime:

::

integration.type = SUNDIALS
integration.sundials.type = ERK

One can select a different method type by changing the value of
``integration.sundials.type`` to one of the following values:

+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
| Input Option | SUNDIALS Method Type |
+========================+==================================================+
| ERK | Explicit Runge-Kutta method |
+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
| DIRK | Diagonally Implicit Runge-Kutta method |
+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
| IMEX-RK | Implicit-Explicit Additive Runge-Kutta method |
+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
| EX-MRI | Explicit Multirate Infinitesimal method |
+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
| IM-MRI | Implicit Multirate Infinitesimal method |
+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+
| IMEX-MRI | Implicit-Explicit Multirate Infinitesimal method |
+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+

For ImEx methods, the user needs to supply two right-hand side functions, an
implicit and an explicit function, using the function
``TimeIntegrator::set_imex_rhs()``. Similarly for multirate methods, the user
needs to supply slow and fast right-hand side functions using
``TimeIntegrator::set_rhs()`` to set the slow function and
``TimeIntegrator::set_fast_rhs()`` to set the fast function. With multirate
methods, one also needs to select the fast time scale method type using the
input option ``integration.sundials.fast_type`` which maybe set to ``ERK`` or
``DIRK``.

To select a specific SUNDIALS method use the input option
``integration.sundials.method`` for ERK and DIRK methods as well as the slow
time scale method with an MRI integrator, use ``integration.sundials.method_i``
and ``integration.sundials.method_e`` to set the implicit and explicit method in
an ImEx method, and ``integration.sundials.fast_method`` to set the ERK or DIRK
method used at the fast time scale with an MRI integrator. These options may be
set to any valid SUNDIALS method name, see the following sections in the
SUNDIALS documentation for more details:

* `ERK methods <https://sundials.readthedocs.io/en/latest/arkode/Butcher_link.html#explicit-butcher-tables>`_
* `DIRK methods <https://sundials.readthedocs.io/en/latest/arkode/Butcher_link.html#implicit-butcher-tables>`_
* `ImEx methods <https://sundials.readthedocs.io/en/latest/arkode/Butcher_link.html#additive-butcher-tables>`_
