Detailed Description

Interface to underlying groups for turning point calculations using the minimally augmented formulation.

This abstract class provides the required interface for underlying groups to locate turning points using the minimally augmented turning point formulation (see LOCA::TurningPoint::MinimallyAugmented::ExtendedGroup for a description of the governing equations).

This class is derived from the LOCA::TurningPoint::MooreSpence::AbstractGroup and declares several pure virtual methods compute various derivatives of $w^TJn$ for a given $w$ and $n$. Default implementations for the derivatives using finite differencing are implemented in the LOCA::TurningPoint::MinimallyAugmented::FiniteDifferenceGroup.
