Neumann boundary condition

$$ \begin{equation} \frac{\partial u}{\partial n} \equiv \normalvec\cdot\nabla u = 0 \tag{21} \end{equation} $$

For a 1D domain \( [0,L] \): $$ \left.\frac{\partial}{\partial n}\right\vert_{x=L} = \frac{\partial}{\partial x},\quad \left.\frac{\partial}{\partial n}\right\vert_{x=0} = - \frac{\partial}{\partial x} $$
