This theory manual and quick reference guide is organized as follows. Section 1 presents the formulation of the discretized full potential equation and the mesh morphing laws. Section 2 presents the formulation of their partial gradients. Section 3 presents the direct and adjoint solution procedures. Finally, section 4 gives an overview of the available API as well as their configuration parameters.
