- functorThe name of the functor for which to find the extrema. A functor is any of the following: a variable, a functor material property, a function, a post-processor, or a number.
C++ Type:MooseFunctorName
Controllable:No
Description:The name of the functor for which to find the extrema. A functor is any of the following: a variable, a functor material property, a function, a post-processor, or a number.
ElementExtremeFunctorValue
Finds either the min or max elemental value of a variable over the domain.
You can optionally provide a "proxy_functor", which will change the behavior of this postprocessor to find the element at which the proxy functor reaches the max/min value, and then return the value of the specified functor at that element.
commentnote
Unlike the ElementExtremeValue postprocessor, this postprocessor does not examine the quadrature point values, but instead passes the element argument to the functor.
