From 8d9ba0853008c2b57c0628192b1adbe4a79fb95e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: lmoresi Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2026 19:58:15 +1000 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Stokes_Constrained: unlock parallel (remove over-conservative serial guard) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The in-saddle multiplier free-slip solver was guarded serial-only, but the interior-multiplier reduction (_constrain_interior_multipliers_in_section) is rank-local section surgery: it uses the distributed boundary-label IS and iterates the local chart, so the global system — and hence the velocity solve and the gauge-invariant boundary traction — are partition-independent. Validated bit-identical at np=1/2/4 (velocity L2 and mean-stripped boundary topography) for both isotropic and transverse-isotropic rheology. On enclosed problems the raw multiplier h carries the [p,lambda] gauge constant (the solver lands on a partition-dependent representative). topography() gains a reference="mean" option to subtract the boundary mean for a reproducible, gauge-fixed readout; the default (reference=None) is unchanged (raw multiplier), which is correct for problems with no gauge freedom (e.g. an open boundary). - src/underworld3/systems/solvers.py: remove serial guard; topography(reference=). - tests/parallel/test_1063_constrained_freeslip_parallel.py: np>=2 regression.
