PlaningFSI is a scientific Python program use to calculate the steady-state response of two-dimensional marine structures planing at constant speed on the free surface with consideration for Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) and rigid body motion. It was originally written in 2012-2013 to support my Ph.D. research and has recently (2018) been updated and released as open-source.
I am currently working on releasing this package as open source. Since this is my first open-source release, the next few releases on PyPI should not be used for production. I will release version 1.0.0 and remove this note once I feel that I have sufficiently cleaned up and documented the code.
The code is written in Python and was originally written in Python 2.6.5. it has since been updated to require Python 3.6+.
PlaningFSI can be installed with pip:
pip install planingfsi
To contribute, you should install the code in developer mode.
poetry install --develop=.
The main command-line interface is called planingFSI and can be called directly, once appropriate input files have been prepared.
A collection of examples can be found in the tutorials directory in the source package.
