Current revision
A lot has happened since the last (18-09-07) release notes! I will try to give an overview below.
Meanwhile the following JCP paper has been recently accepted for publication:
S. Popinet - An accurate adaptive solver for surface-tension-driven interfacial flows
- Journal of Computational Physics , 2009
- Bibtex
See also the updated bibliography for other recent publications.
[edit]
Gerris
Major improvements include:
- Moving solid boundaries: this is an initial release, more will follow.
- New axisymmetric version.
- New non-linear shallow-water solver.
- The reference dimension of the GfsBox can be set.
- "2D3" ocean model has been replaced with a generalised 3D ocean code.
- New Map module for cartographic projections.
- New Terrain module for large height-field databases.
- New Tide module for FES2004 tidal atlas database.
- Major improvements to the VOF and surface tension code (as described in the JCP paper above).
- New Cook Strait tides example.
- New ship wave example.
- New object GfsOutputDropletSums for VOF droplets statistics.
- Vim dictionary and utilities.
- Overall improvements to code portability (including Mac OSX).
- Improvements to the Poisson and Crank-Nicholson diffusion coupling.
- Both GfsRefineSolid and GfsRefineSurface now work with implicit surfaces.
- Examples and tests are automatically cross-linked with the syntax reference.
- Numerous bug fixes.
Have a look at the changelog for details.
[edit]
GfsView
- In 2D Linear and Isoline objects can display 3D surfaces. See an example here.
- New "Append" mode for gfsview-batch: This allows for example a single instance of gfsview-batch to generate several movies through named unix pipes.
- Fix for crash when computing isosurface for "marginal" values.
- Other bug fixes.
Have a look at the changelog for details.
