Development

The master branch is the current stable development branch of TOSCA. Dodumentation is available at TOSCA Stable Development Documentation

New working features since last release (V1.0.0):

  • Two-way coupled overset mesh method: this feature enables complete block-structed mesh refinement in TOSCA.

  • Additional scale-dependent (dynamicLASD) and anisotropic minimum dissipation (amd) LES models.

  • Additional high-order numerical scheme (-central4 with -hyperVisc parameter) to better capture the high-frequency tail of turbulence spectra.

  • Improved immersed boundary method: faster algorithms and time-varying wall modeling.

  • Lateral fringe region (-yDampingLayer): allows for gravity wave problems with wind direction changes and assimilated atmospheric data.

  • Data assimilation methods: direct/indirect profile assimilation techniques, as well as wavelet assimilation method (selectable through controllerType and controllerTypeT flags in ABLProperties.dat).

  • Additional example cases: IndirectProfileAssimilationTest, WaveletAssimilationTest, MultiDomainOverset, PitchingAerofoilOversetTest, SuccessorOversetTest, SuccessorPeriodizedLateralFringeTest and TaylorGreenVortexTest.

  • Updated and extended documentation to incorporate new changes & features.
