As a consequence, Newton's method becomes more sensitive to the initial data and ceases to converge. To solve this problem, the `calculate_profile` function implements the method of continuation by the $\delta$ parameter (for an example, see [step-57](https://www.dealii.org/current/doxygen/deal.II/step_57.html)). The solution and the refined triangulation are saved after each step of the method using the `get_solution` and `get_triangulation` functions and then passed to the next step. +Decreasing the dissipation parameter $\delta$ leads to the appearance of large gradients in solutions in the neighborhood of zero.
