SHARPy version 2.0
We are pleased to announce the release of SHARPy version 2.0!
In SHARPy 2.0 the installation process has been modified to use pip (#175 thanks @DavidAnderegg!) with full details on how to install the new version in the installation docs.
Aside from this major change to the installation process, enhancements to the linear solver have been introduced. Now, you'll see what each input/output/state of the linear system corresponds to and how are the channels ordered.
🐞We have squashed a few bugs, an important one relating to flap inputs and sign convention in the linear vs nonlinear implementations (see #192 and #193)
❓As always, please use the discussion board if you have any issues/questions using SHARPy.

SHARPy v1.3
We are please to announce the release of SHARPy version 1.3! This version brings new features to the code that are all listed below.
❓If you have any questions about this new release, please don't hesitate to visit the Discussion Board.
🗒️ Note: this release had been withheld since before Summer 2021 because of an issue with our previous CI test provider. Now that CI tests are working, we can release 1.3 that had been an RC for long. However, expect a new SHARPy version likely soon with many new features that have been implemented since 1.3RC was born!

SHARPy Version 1.2
It has been a while! However, in this convoluted 2020 development on SHARPy hasn't ceased! This release is packed with new features and changes, in particular to how the wake is handled and assembled in the UVLM. More on that below.
We'd also like to welcome @sduess to the SHARPy development team!
These are the major enhancements to SHARPy 1.2 (check the changelog for a full list):
- Major new aerodynamic features #101 (ArturoMS13)
- SHARPy support for external inputs via UDP network #90 (ngoiz)
- Vortex radius as input parameter #86 (ArturoMS13)
- Quasi-steady solver in stepuvlm #114 (ArturoMS13)
- Generator to modify structural mass at runtime #107 (ngoiz)
- Simple post-processor to save simulation parameters for batch runs #91 (ngoiz)
Full Changelog
The major enhancement is to the UVLM thanks to @ArturoMS13's work #101. You can now use different sized panels for the wake and bound panels, which will result in much more efficient simulations (nonlinear only for the moment). This introduces a change in the settings to the AerogridLoader as now the wake is assembled within SHARPy (previously it was built in UVLM). For the current version, the new wake definition settings are optional (i.e., by default the wake will be constructed with the same panel size as the bound panels) but for future releases this will be a required setting. The settings should be fairly easy to implement as there are only two new wake generators StraightWake and HelicoidalWake; these settings are parsed into AerogridLoader.
We hope you find these new features useful for your work! If you have any questions with the new developments or find any bugs please open an issue!
