pyLBM.storage.Array¶

class pyLBM.storage.Array(nv, gspace_size, vmax, sorder=None, mpi_topo=None, dtype=<type 'numpy.float64'>, gpu_support=False)¶

This class defines the storage of the moments and distribution functions in pyLBM.

It sets the storage in memory and how to access.

Parameters:	nv: int number of velocities gspace_size: list of int number of points in each direction including the fictitious point vmax: list of int the size of the fictitious points in each direction sorder: list of int the order of nv, nx, ny and nz Default is None which mean [nv, nx, ny, nz] mpi_topo: the mpi topology dtype: type the type of the array. Default is numpy.double

Attributes

nspace	the space size.
nv	the number of velocities.
shape	the shape of the array that stores the data.
size	the size of the array that stores the data.

array

Methods

generate()	generate periodic conditions functions for loo.py backend.
set_conserved_moments(consm, nv_ptr)	add conserved moments information to have a direct access.
update()	update ghost points on the interface with the datas of the neighbors.
