anuga

ANUGA models the effect of tsunamis and flooding upon a terrain mesh. In typical usage, a Domain class is created for a particular piece of terrain. Boundary conditions are specified for the domain, such as inflow and outflow, and then the simulation is run.

This is the public API to ANUGA. It provides a toolkit of often-used modules, which can be used directly by including the following line in the user’s code:

>>> import anuga

This usage pattern abstracts away the internal heirarchy of the ANUGA system, allowing the user to concentrate on writing simulations without searching through the ANUGA source tree for the functions that they need.

Also, it isolates the user from “under-the-hood” refactorings.
