desc.objectives.RotationalTransform

class desc.objectives.RotationalTransform(eq=None, target=0, bounds=None, weight=1, normalize=True, normalize_target=True, grid=None, name='rotational transform')

Targets a rotational transform profile.

Parameters:

• eq (Equilibrium, optional) – Equilibrium that will be optimized to satisfy the Objective.

• target (float, ndarray, optional) – Target value(s) of the objective. Only used if bounds is None. len(target) must be equal to Objective.dim_f

• bounds (tuple, optional) – Lower and upper bounds on the objective. Overrides target. len(bounds[0]) and len(bounds[1]) must be equal to Objective.dim_f

• weight (float, ndarray, optional) – Weighting to apply to the Objective, relative to other Objectives. len(weight) must be equal to Objective.dim_f

• normalize (bool) – Whether to compute the error in physical units or non-dimensionalize. Note: has no effect for this objective.

• normalize_target (bool) – Whether target and bounds should be normalized before comparing to computed values. If normalize is True and the target is in physical units, this should also be set to True. Note: has no effect for this objective.

• grid (Grid, optional) – Collocation grid containing the nodes to evaluate at.

• name (str) – Name of the objective function.
