Request for Advice on Integrating AMR Code #1

Open HIPPOAVA opened 1 year ago

HIPPOAVA commented 1 year ago

Hello LordOfBunnies,

I am a PhD student at Central South University of China, currently researching bubble swarm using the front-tracking method. I am attempting to integrate adaptive mesh refinement code into an open-source software called PARIS Simulator, which is written in Fortran. However, I am struggling with coding and my skills are limited. I noticed that you have had success with an entropic LBM flow solver, and was wondering if you could offer me some advice on the matter.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

The best advice I can give you is to not try to reinvent the wheel. I use Amrex for UCLBS, and I know it has a Fortran interface. You may want to pull that down or one of the other open source AMR codes to integrate with your work. Other possibilities include SAMRAI and VTF, but you'll need to find the one that best fits your work.

Please remember to cite the code you're using in your papers and dissertation.

Thank you for your prompt reply to my question. I appreciate your advice of using existing open-source codes. I will definitely look into these options and determine which one best suits my research. Additionally, thank you for reminding me to cite the code I use in my papers and dissertation. I will make sure to properly reference any code I integrate into my research.

Once again, thank you for your time and assistance.
