[docs]class BaseSubModel(pybamm.BaseModel):
"""
The base class for all submodels. All submodels inherit from this class and must
only provide public methods which overwrite those in this base class. Any methods
added to a submodel that do not overwrite those in this bass class are made
private with the prefix '_', providing a consistent public interface for all
submodels.
Parameters
----------
param: parameter class
The model parameter symbols
Attributes
----------
param: parameter class
The model parameter symbols
rhs: dict
A dictionary that maps expressions (variables) to expressions that represent
the rhs
algebraic: dict
A dictionary that maps expressions (variables) to expressions that represent
the algebraic equations. The algebraic expressions are assumed to equate
to zero. Note that all the variables in the model must exist in the keys of
`rhs` or `algebraic`.
initial_conditions: dict
A dictionary that maps expressions (variables) to expressions that represent
the initial conditions for the state variables y. The initial conditions for
algebraic variables are provided as initial guesses to a root finding algorithm
that calculates consistent initial conditions.
boundary_conditions: dict
A dictionary that maps expressions (variables) to expressions that represent
the boundary conditions
variables: dict
A dictionary that maps strings to expressions that represent
the useful variables
events: list
A list of events. Each event can either cause the solver to terminate
(e.g. concentration goes negative), or be used to inform the solver of the
existance of a discontinuity (e.g. discontinuity in the input current)

[docs] def get_fundamental_variables(self):
"""
A public method that creates and returns the variables in a submodel which can
be created independent of other submodels. For example, the electrolyte
concentration variables can be created independent of whether any other
variables have been defined in the model. As a rule, if a variable can be
created without variables from other submodels, then it should be placed in
this method.

The variables created by the submodel which are independent of variables in
other submodels.

A public method that creates and returns the variables in a submodel which
require variables in other submodels to be set first. For example, the
exchange current density requires the concentration in the electrolyte to
be created before it can be created. If a variable can be created independent
of other submodels then it should be created in 'get_fundamental_variables'
instead of this method.
Parameters
----------

Returns
-------

The variables created in this submodel which depend on variables in
other submodels.
