This code implements the Height-Averaged Navier-Stokes (HANS) scheme for two-dimensional lubrication problems as described in the following paper:
Holey, H. et al. (2022) Tribology Letters, 70(2), p. 36.
Packaged versions can be installed via
pip install hans
Multiscale simulations require a working installation of LAMMPS. New molecular dynamics runs are triggered using the Python interface of LAMMPS. Therefore LAMMPS has to be build as a shared library. Please follow the installation instructions of LAMMPS.
Run from the command line with
mpirun -n <NP> python3 -m hans -i <input_file> [-p] [-r <restart_file>]
where NP is the number of MPI processes. The plot option (-p, --plot) is only available for serial execution. Example input files as well as jupyter-notebooks can be found in the examples directory.
The command line interface contains some scripts for plotting and creating animations. For instance, 1D profiles of converged solutions can be displayed with
plot1D_last.py
Run all tests from the main source directory with
pytest
or append the path to the test definition file (located in tests) to run selected tests only.
