Free (in all senses of the word) and open source software for modeling plasmas using finite elements. This application is built on top of the MOOSE Framework.
For Zapdos documentation, there are two websites available:
Alternatively, there are three main pieces of file-based documentation for Zapdos, all located in the doc
directory:
Zapdos_Tutorial.pdf
- A general tutorial of Zapdos capabilities, with explanations of the finite element method, code and input file structure, the Peacock GUI (from MOOSE), and examples of usage.Chemical_Reactions.ipynb
- A Jupiter notebook containing notes on understanding existing chemistry kernels and/or implementing new ones in Zapdos/MOOSE.Lindsay_thesis_coupling_of_plasmas_and_liquids.pdf
- Chapter 3 of the original PhD dissertation introducing Zapdos ("Coupling of Plasmas and Liquids" by Alex Lindsay).Please do not hesitate to contact the Zapdos GitHub Discussions page if you have any questions about using or contributing to this software.
