User Subroutines

FrontISTR provides interfaces that allow users to extend its functionality through programming. These interfaces are basically FORTRAN subroutines that include a subroutine header, descriptions of input/output variables, and declaration statements for those variables. The main body of the routine must be written by the user.

FrontISTR provides the following user-subroutine interfaces.
