LORENE
Topics
Here is a list of all topics with brief descriptions:
[detail level 12]
 LORENE's macros.
 ▼Utilities.The classes Tbl and Itbl implement the 1-D, 2-D and 3-D array representation in Lorene, whereas the class Matrice is devoted to matrix representation and Param to generic parameter storage
 Itbl Mathematics()
 Matrice arithmetics()
 Tbl Mathematics()
 Miscellaneous()
 ▼Spectral representation.These classes correspond to the implementation of spectral methods in Lorene
 Base_val Mathematics()
 Mtbl Mathematics()
 Mtbl_cf Mathematics()
 Valeur Mathematics()
 ▼Mapping grid -> physical space (spherical coordinates)These classes implement the mapping between the grid coordinates $(\xi, \theta', \phi')$ (described by the Mg3d class) and the physical coordinates $(r, \theta, \phi)$ [cf
 Coord Arithmetics.()
 ▼Tensorial fieldsThese classes implement the tensorial calculus in Lorene
 Scalar mathematics()
 Tensor calculus()
 Tensor arithmetics()
 Time evolution (<em><strong>under development</strong></em>)Classes for time evolving fields and spacetimes
 ▼Old tensorial fields (*** Deprecated ***)These classes have been used up to 2003 to treat scalar (class Cmp ) and tensorial fields (class Tenseur )
 Cmp Mathematics()
 Tenseur calculus()
 Tenseur mathematics()
 Tenseur_sym calculus()
 Tenseur_sym mathematics()
 Equations of state
 Stars and black holes
 Stationary compact objects (<em><strong>under development</strong></em>)
 General PDE solvers (<em><strong>under development</strong></em>)These classes are needed for using the general partial differential equation solver, for which the variables and the operators can be different from one domain to the other
 ▼Grid weddingThese classes are used to make the interface with Godunov-type methods, used by the Garching and Valencia groups
 Tbl_val Mathematics()
 Physical units.
 ▼Graphical outputs.The 2-D graphical outputs of various Lorene objects are performed via the PGPLOT library: http://astro.caltech.edu/~tjp/pgplot/
