<strong>UFL</strong> <strong>Specification</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>User</strong> <strong>Manual</strong> <strong>0.3</strong>Martin S. Alnæs, Anders Logg<strong>and</strong> a linear form 5 can be differentiated to obtain the bilinear form correspondingto its Jacobi matrix:J(v,u;w) = ddw F(v;w).The <strong>UFL</strong> code to express this is (for a simple functional f(w) = ∫ Ω12 w2 dx)f = (w**2)/2 * dxF = derivative(f, w, v)J = derivative(F, w, u)which is equivalent to:f = (w**2)/2 * dxF = w*v*dxJ = u*v*dxAssume in the following examples that:v = TestFunction(element)u = TrialFunction(element)w = Function(element)The stiffness matrix can be computed from the functional ∫ ∇w : ∇wdx,Ωby the linesf = inner(grad(w), grad(w))/2 * dxF = derivative(f, w, v)J = derivative(F, w, u)5 Note that by “linear form” we only mean a form that is linear in its test function, notin the function you differentiate with respect to.54
