Hello everyone. This week me and Lianyue have been continuing to work on coding. This week, however, we jumped into coding for our project on fluid dynamics. On my behalf, I used a program called DIABLO where I was able to manipulate parameters such as the number of vortices that are introduced into our field, which eventually affects the enstrophy. Using this program, I also made the size of my grid. Once these, and other parameters, were modified, we wrote code on MATLAB to be able to take this information and analyze. We wrote code on MATLAB to be able to read all that information and make a figure that displays the formation of vortices. Lianyue took pictures of our results and will be posting the pictures on the blog.

Hello everyone, this week I was able to finalize a code on MATLAB where I placed a marker on every single fluid particle in my simulation. With this code, I am able to see the formation of vortices much clearer. The next step in my project will be to write a code that uses a fourth order Runge Kutta to integrate and determine the time it takes for the vortices to dismantle and the particles to flow out of the vortice.

Over these past few weeks I have finished six codes for the fluid dynamics project. One of the codes plots all the data collected from DIABLO. Another code places a marker to track the individual fluid particles; a second code to this one is for placing a marker on every single fluid particle. Another code is for taking snap pictures of the different vortices. This last codes is to help with using the fourth order runge kutta method to determine the time that particles stick together.

Hello everyone. This week me and Lianyue were scheduled to begin coding. However, the computer lab that has MATLAB was not available because there was a class going on. We had to find an alternative time to work on coding. This upcoming Saturday we will be coding a series of codes to learn to use MATLAB. We are very excited to code MATLAB scripts.
