Gmsh mesh format 4.1 ASCII

The Gmsh mesh format 4.1 ASCII can now be used as an input to the code (the previous version of the code was limited to Gmsh format 2.2). The output data file in Gmsh format has also been improved in order to reduce its size.

OpenMP and quadrangular cells

Two major updates in this release:

• Quadrangular cells are possible in the mesh and can coexist with triangular cells
• OpenMP parallelism can be activated in the file CMake.config if your Fortran compiler supports it.

Wall friction coefficient and Gnuplot optional

This release offers the possibility to define the wall-friction coefficient in addition to the bottom friction. Moreover compiling with Gnuplot is made optional.

Possibility to interpolate the solution

This version has the same features as the previous version with the addition of:

• Possibility to interpolate the solution from an old mesh to a new mesh with the new program EXE\mesh_interpolator
• Possibility to link the code to the external library fortran-sigwatch in order to catch the CTRL-C signal and to stop the computation by saving the solution.

Base version of the code
