Article: 193 of sci.physics.computational.fluid-dynamics


I happened across a program in the info-mac archives at
sumex-aim.stanford.edu today.  To my surprise, it turns out to be:
"This is the ReadMe file for Foil 1.0.2, a Macintosh airfoil
generation and display program.  Foil 1.0.2 is System 6/7 happy,
meaning it should run equally well under both systems.  Foil is free,
but not public domain.  I retain all rights, and it may not be
distributed in modified form, or without any of the files.  Since it's
free, please read the file "A Note About the Author".

CLAWPACK (library of codes by Randall LeVeque)

Version 2.0 of clawpack is now available from netlib, in pdes/claw.
See also the homepage at URL
   ftp://amath.washington.edu/pub/rjl/programs/clawpack.html
There are several new features and applications, and expanded documentation.

        CLAWPACK  --  Conservation LAWs software PACKage
        ------------------------------------------------

Version 1.0 of CLAWPACK is now available from netlib.  This is a
package of Fortran subroutines for solving hyperbolic systems of
conservation laws in one and two space dimensions. (Future versions
should include 3D.)  High resolution flux-limiter methods are used,
based on solving one-dimensional Riemann problems.  In two dimensions,
multi-dimensional wave-propagation methods are used.  The current
version supports only uniform Cartesian grids in rectangular domains,
and is intended primarily as a research and teaching tool.  The
modular form should make it easy to modify and experiment with other
methods, as well as to apply it to new problems.

The code requires that the user supply a Riemann solver for the
problem being solved and also a subroutine that implements the
boundary conditions.  Source terms can also be handled (via Strang
splitting) in which case an ODE solver for the source terms must also
be supplied.  Several examples of different Riemann solvers are
included with the package, including e.g., advection equation,
Burgers' equation, Euler equations, isothermal equations, shallow
water equations.  Various different boundary conditions are also
demonstrated, such as periodic, inflow, nonreflecting, and solid
walls.  Numerous example drivers are included to demonstrate the use
of these subroutines.  Matlab m-files are included to graphically
display the output, or they can be used as a model for writing
graphics routines in other languages.  Documentation is included in
the package, including the postscript file for an introductory paper
on the package.

The package can be obtained from netlib, where it resides in the library
pdes/claw.  This directory currently contains:
   index      the index
   clawpack   the basic package, with 1d, 2d routines and many examples
   doc        documentation (postscript files of papers, slides)
   advection  applications of clawpack to 2d advection equations, with
              examples from a recent paper on this subject (in doc).
   nozzle     application of clawpack to the quasi-1d nozzle problem.
   vBurgers   viscous Burgers' equation, with diffusion equation as source.
   L-domain   L-shaped domains, such as the forward facing step problem.

My hope is that a library of more sophisticated applications will be
gradually built up, and contributions from other users will be
gratefully accepted.

The package may be obtained by anonymous ftp from netlib.att.com, where it resides in netlib/pdes/claw. The file netlib/pdes/claw/clawpack.shar is a tar file of the entire directory. Files can also be obtained by sending e-mail to netlib@research.att.com. Send the message "help" to this address for more information. Alternatively, you can obtain files by ftp through Mosaic using the URL ftp://netlib.att.com/netlib/pdes/claw/index.html . It is also possible to browse through the library using Mosaic from ftp://amath.washington.edu/pub/rjl/programs/clawpack.html .

On your net page regarding free software, the following entry is free
only if your funding comes from the US Dept of Energy, although they
don't tell you this until they ask you to fill out and return several
pages of forms!  The fee is $400 for the HEATING code.

I just wanted to let you know so other folks don't lose valuable time
filling out the forms for a code that is not free to most people.

HEATING was developed for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). DOE
requires that their codes be distributed through one on their code
centers. In the United States HEATING is distributed by the Radiation
Safety Information Computational Center (RSICC) in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
RSICC can be contacted via e-mail at PDC@ORNL.GOV or by phone at
423-574-6176. RSICC has a WWW page at http://epicws.epm.ornl.gov/rsic.html.
HEATING is code number PSR-199 in the RSICC code collection.
RSICC charges a fee to cover their cost of distributing codes. This fee
varies based on the affiliation of the requester. I don't know how much
the fee currently is.
Documentation for HEATING is available on line as a pdf (Portable Document
Format) file at http://www.cad.ornl.gov/cad_nea/text/man.html.

PHI3D was developed by Paul Williams (ptw@ornl.gov) for his Ph.D.
dissertation. He says it needs to be cleaned up before he will release
it.  If someone were willing to give him some funding, this process
could be speeded up, as he has no funding to work on the code at
present.

HYDRO.DOC

ABSTRACT:   This is a two-dimensional Lagrangian hydrodynamics code based on
            an algorithm of W.D. Schultz.

NUMERICAL:  According to the report below, HYDRO is representative of a large
            class of codes used in the Los Alamos Laboratory and is 100%
            vectorizable.

NOTES:      HYDRO is very similar to SIMPLE - Almost identical methods.
            However, HYDRO can handle General Geometry, while SIMPLE uses Fixed
            Geometry (Equation of state table 2X2)

PSTSWM

PSTSWM v4.0 is now available from http://www.epm.ornl.gov/chammp/pstswm.
(It has been available for awhile, but the user guide has just been
updated.)

PSTSWM is a message-passing benchmark code and parallel algorithm
testbed that solves the nonlinear shallow water equations on a
rotating sphere using the spectral transform method. PSTSWM was
developed by to evaluate parallel algorithms for the spectral
transform method as it is used in global atmospheric circulation
models. Multiple parallel algorithms are embedded in the code and can
be selected at run-time, as can the problem size, number of
processors, and data decomposition. This flexibility allows the code
to be tuned on a parallel platform before benchmarking, thus
evaluating the multiprocessor on its ability to solve the numerical
problem rather than it ability to execute a given fixed parallel
implementation. Six different problem test cases are also supported,
each with associated reference solutions and solution and error
analysis options.

As of 4/1/95, PSTSWM runs on the Cray Research T3D, the IBM SP-1 and
SP-2, the Intel iPSC/2, iPSC/860, DELTA, and Paragon (on both GP and
MP nodes and using either the NX or SUNMOS operating systems), the
nCUBE/2 and nCUBE/2S, across a network of SUN and IBM workstations,
and on a Cray vector machine (as a serial application). Message
passing is implemented using MPI, PICL, PVM, and/or native message
passing libraries, with the choice being made at compile time.  In
principle, it should also run on any other platform on which MPI,
PICL, or PVM is available.

To aid in tuning and in understanding the parallel performance, PSTSWM
has been instrumented for the collection of performance data using the
PICL trace and profile collection interface. The PICL implementation
of the code must be used in order to collect performance data on
interprocessor communication but a mixed PICL/native implementation is
also provided that can be used to collect data on events not related
to message passing. In the mixed implementation, the performance
sensitive message passing uses native commands and PICL is only used
in the collection of the performance data.

FCT (Flux-Corrected Transport)
link to FCT page

Overview

Flux-Corrected Transport (FCT) is a conservative, monotone technique
for integrating generalized continuity and hydromagnetic
equations. [...]

FCT was the first of the class of high-order, monotone schemes for
solving generalized continuity equations (e.g., the equations of
Eulerian hydrodynamics). An FCT bibliography of basic papers is posted
here.

A suite of FCT modules with test programs is being developed for
posting to the HPCC/ESS Software Exchange. [...]

The software for solving 2D hydrodynamical problems will be found in
the package LCPFCT2. For 2D magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) applications,
the package MHDFCT2 also will be needed. Similar software packages
LCPFCT3 and MHDFCT3 eventually will be posted for solving 3D problems.
