description:
PDE class can now solve nonlinear PDEs.

Nonlinear PDE's can be solved in a similar fashion to linear PDEs. The code below is from src/demo/pde/nonlinear/nonlinear-poisson.

Newton-Raphson steps increments inside PDE will be added later. 

 // Set up problem
  UnitSquare mesh(16, 16);
  MyFunction f;
  MyBC bc;
  Function u;

  // Create forms and nonlinear PDE
  NonlinearPoisson::BilinearForm a(u);
  NonlinearPoisson::LinearForm L(u, f);
  PDE pde(a, L, mesh, bc, PDE::nonlinear);


  // Solve nonlinear problem in a series of steps
  real dt = 1.0; real t  = 0.0; real T  = 3.0;
  f.sync(t);
  bc.sync(t);

  pde.set("Newton relative tolerance", 1e-6); 
  while( t < T)
  {
    t += dt;
    pde.solve(u);
  }
