💖 mkgeo_couette — bestie edition 💖

okay so this is mkgeo_couette, a lil tool from the rheolef-7.2 fam, and it makes you a mesh of the Couette geometry. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

mkgeo_couette n

that's it. one arg. she's low maintenance, we stan 💅

🌸 EXAMPLE 🌸

so say you wanna build a triangle based 2d unstructured mesh of the Couette geometry — which, yes, is exactly what this does — you'd run:

mkgeo_couette 10
geo couette-10.geo

first line makes the mesh, second line peeks at it. iconic behavior honestly 🦋

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

this command is your go-to when you're testing fluid mechanics programs on simple geometries. like, you don't need a whole dramatic setup, you just need something chill to run your code against. she's giving test-fixture energy ✨

and fun fact: under the hood it calls bamg as the unstructured mesh generator. so all the actual meshing? not her. she's the delegator. main character who knows how to outsource 👑

🎀 THE GEOMETRY 🎀

picture this: a unit disk with a circular hole punched right through the middle. and the hole has a diameter of 1/2.

that's the Couette geometry. donut-adjacent. annulus-coded. obsessed 🌈

💜 BOUNDARY DOMAINS 💜

there are two boundary domains, and they are:

  • interior
  • exterior

two moods. inner and outer. yin and yang but make it mesh topology 💫

⭐ IMPLEMENTATION ⭐

ngl this documentation was generated from the file:

main/sbin/mkgeo_couette.sh

so if you ever wanna read the source, that's where she lives 🏠
