Description
    This function object calculates average quantities for a user-specified
    selection of volumetric and surface fields.  Fields are entered as a list
    of sub-dictionaries, which indicate the type of averages to perform, and
    can be updated during the calculation.  The current options include:
    - \c mean: arithmetic mean:
        \f[
            \overline{x} = \frac{1}{N}\displaystyle\sum\limits_{i=0}^N x_i
        \f]
    - \c prime2Mean: prime-squared mean
        \f[
            \overline{x'}^2 = \frac{1}{N}\displaystyle\sum\limits_{i=0}^N
            (x_i - \overline{x})^2
        \f]
    - base: average over 'time', or 'iteration' (\f$N\f$ in the above)
    - window: optional averaging window, specified in 'base' units
 
    Average field names are constructed by concatenating the base field with
    the averaging type, e.g. when averaging field 'U', the resultant fields
    are:
    - arithmetic mean field, UMean
    - prime-squared field, UPrime2Mean
 
    Information regarding the number of averaging steps, and total averaging
    time are written on a per-field basis to the
    \c fieldAveragingProperties dictionary, located in <time>/uniform
 
    When restarting form a previous calculation, the averaging is continuous.
    However, the averaging process can be restarted using the \c resetOnRestart
    option.
 
    To restart the averaging process after each calculation output time, use
    the \c resetOnOutput option.
 
    Example of function object specification:
    \verbatim
    fieldAverage1
    {
        type fieldAverage;
        functionObjectLibs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
        ...
        resetOnRestart true;
        resetOnOutput false;
        fields
        (
            U
            {
                mean            on;
                prime2Mean      on;
                base            time;
                window          10.0;
                windowName      w1;
            }
            p
            {
                mean            on;
                prime2Mean      on;
                base            time;
            }
        );
    }
    \endverbatim

    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        type         | type name: fieldAverage | yes         |
        resetOnRestart | flag to reset the averaging on restart | yes |
        resetOnOutput| flag to reset the averaging on output | yes |

Note
    To employ the \c prime2Mean option, the \c mean option must be selecetd.
