Description
As part of the capability to generate a random field representation, the user
needs to specify the data used to generate the random field representation.
If analytic_covariance is specified, an analytic covariance function will be used to generate instantiations
of a random field over a mesh.
The form of the covariance function must be specified (e.g. exponential or squared_exponential.
THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL CAPABILITY UNDER ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT.
Default Behavior
Currently, the build_source that is fully working is the
dace_method_pointer. The others are not fully operational.
