Yuesu, I am learning step-7 which has the same class AffineConstraints class, in > step6, we use the member function ::distribute_local_to_global to put the > local matrix and rhs into global matrix and rhs, but in step-7, we still > use system_matrix.add and then use the constraint.condense on system_matrix > and system_rhs. Do those two procedure have the same effect? >
You can find a discussion at https://www.dealii.org/9.0.1/doxygen/deal.II/group__constraints.html. In short: Yes, they have the same purpose, but different advantages and disadvantages. In general, we recommend using distribute_local_to_global over condensation.
