SAMUS 1.0.0

SAMUS package

SAMUS

---

Simulator of Asteroid Malformation Under Stress, package designed for Taylor et al 2022. Questions on its use should be directed to [e-mail].

This code simulates the deformation of minor bodies, assuming that they are homogenous incompressible fluid masses. They are initialized as ellipsoids and the Navier-Stokes equations are interatively solved to investigate the deformation of the body over time. This package is highly modular, and allows for user-defined output functions, size, and trajectories.

SAMUS is structured as a single large class, which allows for variables to be stored and for arbitrary function calls. A single high-fidelity simulation run can be quite lengthy, and so this allows for ease of debugging and investigation. It utilizes Python3.8 and above, and depends on the numpy, FEniCS, DOLFIN, UFL, SciPy, pandas, quaternion, and mpipy packages.

Further description of SAMUS can be found in Taylor et al 2022 (found on the ArXiv here (LINK)) and in the in-line documentation.

Examples of SAMUS's use are given in the examples folder.

Installation

There are two primary methods of installing SAMUS:

1. Install through the Python Package Index (PyPI):
   pip install SAMUS
2. Install the developer's version on GitHub:
   git clone https://github.com/astertaylor/SAMUS
cd SAMUS
python setup.py install (Note that this command may require a sudo instruction.)

examples

Folder containing examples of SAMUS's use. There are .ipynb and .py files for both examples. The .ipynb files have greater documentation, and the .py files are more efficient to run.

__init__.py: Initializing file for the subpackage.

example_traj.csv: .csv file with simple, short trajectory information, for use in validations.
example_traj.txt: .txt file with simple, short trajectory information, for use in validations.

Basic_Usage_Example.ipynb: A Jupyter Notebook file with a very basic example of SAMUS's use. This file has relatively extensive documentation, and should be used to gain greater understanding of how SAMUS works.
basic_usage_example.py: A Python script with a very basic example of SAMUS's use. This file should be run by the learner, as it is capable of being run with mpirun and runs significantly faster than the corresponding .ipynb file.

Modularity_Example.ipynb: A Jupyter Notebook file with an example of SAMUS's modular functionalities. This file has relatively extensive documentation, and should be used to gain greater understanding of how SAMUS works.
