pyLBM.elements.Circle

class pyLBM.elements.Circle(center, radius, label=0, isfluid=False)

Class Circle

Parameters:

center : a list that contains the two coordinates of the center

radius : a positive float for the radius

label : list of one integer (default [0])

isfluid : boolean

  • True if the circle is added
  • False if the circle is deleted

Examples

the circle centered in (0, 0) with radius 1

>>> center = [0., 0.]
>>> radius = 1.
>>> Circle(center, radius)
    Circle([0 0],1) (solid)
