Examples

To run the examples, cuIBM should be compiled with the executable cuibm available in the bin folder of the software directory $CUIBM_DIR (see installation instructions). You can add the binary executable to your PATH environment variable:

> export PATH=$CUIBM_DIR/bin:$PATH

Examples:

• lid-driven cavity flow at Reynolds numbers 100, 1000, 3200, and 5000;
• impulsively started cylinder at Reynolds numbers 40, 550, and 3000;
• flapping wing at Reynolds number 75.

Python post-processing scripts are available each case folder; they make use of the package snake that is bundled in the external folder of cuIBM (version 0.3). To install snake:

> cd $CUIBM_DIR/external/snake-0.3
> python setup.py install

To post-process the numerical solution from cuIBM, snake requires Python (2.7 or 3.5), Matplotlib, Scipy, and Pandas.
