This month in AvaFrame - November 2020 edition | 2020-11-29T20:19:18+01:00 | false | monthlynov2020 |
Welcome to our next monthly update.
-
This month started with the exciting (at least for us :-) ) release of version 0.1. Head over to our github repository and our documentation to learn more about it (or read our last post).
-
With this release (and the rest of the month as well) we improved our documentation quite a lot. New getting started and installation pages should make it possible for you to get started (ha, who would have guessed..) with AvaFrame. To make it more readable we reordered the modules documentation. Just recently we started adding the API documentation with all our functions as well (for those interested: this is achieved with sphinx autodoc/autosummary and docstrings). To acknowledge the (very important) data providers, a data sources page was added, with sources and references to data we use in our framework.
-
Our existing test cases received more features, now we include multiple release areas and multiple scenarios per avalanche. Also included are scenarios with resistance areas for our main dense flow avalanche kernel.
-
The first data for real avalanche test cases has made it to the repository. So far we concentrated on idealised cases, but we now include 6 real world avalanches. For now release areas and DEMs are available. Soon these cases will also end up in our test scripts.
-
New functions for probability / parameter range simulations are available for the dense flow kernel com1DFA. Testing this with an applied example is underway at the moment.
-
We started working on the implementation of our dense flow kernel com1DFA in python. This means digging deep into the programming and theory of our C++ reference code. The base structure is already there, current developments concentrate on the implementation of 2D SPH for depth integrated equations on a surface living in 3D and time discretizations, among others. Head over to our github issues to get an idea about the issues (..ha..) at hand.
-
And finally: the second steering committee meeting took place. Which reminds me, I need to add a page about AvaFrame's organisational structure... So watch this space...
On to the next month!
