Welcome to this years last monthly update.
|
|
|
|
+ This month we concentrated on getting more tests into our repository. We now
|
|
have included all 6 realistic topographies with release areas and benchmark
|
|
results in our test scripts. We also expanded our routine testing with pytest
|
|
to more functions/modules. And those testing DEM's, as well as the release
|
|
areas, are freely available in the repository, see the *data* directory.
|
|
|
|
+ The availability of these test cases lead to the release of **version 0.2**.
|
|
Read our last [post](https://avaframe.org/posts/version0_2/) to get to know
|
|
more about it.
|
|
|
|
+ We started including tools and functions regarding the generation of probability
|
|
maps. These range from basic functions for sample generation with different
|
|
distribution all the way to kernel distribution plots.
|
|
|
|
+ Fixing a few niggles, like consistent ASCII writing, updating of docstrings
|
|
for the documentation and other documentation improvements (i.e. *how to add
|
|
test cases*).
|
|
|
|
+ One big thing to be filled in future: we started a glossary where we define
|
|
commonly used terms. We want to use these terms consistently throughout all
|
|
modules. And yes: we are aware this will lead to tons of discussions :-) .
|
|
|
|
+ For our python version of the dense flow kernel, we looked into particle
|
|
distribution, mesh generation and the (potential) application of SPH on a 3d
|
|
surface.
|
|
|
|
We wish you all a happy new year 2021! On to an exciting next year!
|
