         * The upwind solver determines the flux based upon an advection
         * velocity \f$\mathbf{V}\f$ and trace normal \f$\mathbf{n}\f$. In
         * particular, the flux for each component of the velocity field is
         * deterined by:
         * 
         * \f[ \mathbf{f}(u^+,u^-) = \begin{cases} \mathbf{V}u^+, &
         * \mathbf{V}\cdot\mathbf{n} \geq 0,\\ \mathbf{V}u^-, &
         * \mathbf{V}\cdot\mathbf{n} < 0.\end{cases} \f]
         * 
         * Here the superscript + and - denotes forwards and backwards spaces
         * respectively.
