<div>Hello,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is there an example of application of a point
source in one of the tutorial PETScFE style examples?
Ideally this would be some point on the interior, and
not necessarily on a boundary.</div>
<div><br>
Thanks, and apologies in advance if this is a stupid
question,</div>

<div>No, good question. You would have to decide what that
meant in FEM terms. All the internal integrals are done</div>
<div>with quadrature. So putting the source at a quadrature
point would work, although its a little difficult to know
where</div>
<div>they will be. You could smooth it out a little, and
check coordinates in the forcing function. Last, you could
check</div>
<div>for a "close enough" quadrature point and put it there.
I think making a slightly extended source is usually best.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> Thanks,</div>
