    This boundary condition is esentially a Neumann 0-gradient boundary 
    condition with that 0-gradient state extended over a longer part of 
    the grid such that the third derivative also equals 0.
    
    This boundary condition has more of a geometric meaning than a physical 
    meaning. It produces a state in which the boundaries have to have all 
    gradients in deflection go to 0 (i.e. approach constant values) while 
    not specifying what those values must be.
    
    This uses a 0-curvature boundary condition for elastic thickness 
    that extends outside of the computational domain.
