Quick help:

struphy -h

In case of problems visit Trouble shooting.

Run tests from the command-line

Run available verification tests for Struphy models:

struphy test models --verification --fast --show-plots 

The corresponding parameter files are in struphy/io/inp/verification/. The corresponding diagnostics functions are in struphy/models/tests/verification.py. You can repeat the verification run of a single <model_name> by typing

struphy test <model_name> --verification --fast --show-plots 

Tutorial notebooks

Struphy tutorials are available in the form of Jupyter notebooks.
