Directory: ${PENCIL_HOME}/samples/2d-tests/selfgravitating-shearwave SVN Id: $Id: README 13821 2010-05-09 07:16:44Z ajohan@strw.leidenuniv.nl $ Maintainer: Anders Johansen Added: 20-jul-2006 Status: succeeds # One of [succeeds|failing since |obsolete| ...] Recommended resolution: None. Varying the resolution is a good test of how many grid points the code needs to resolve a self-gravitating shear wave. Comments: Linear test problem for particle self-gravity in the shearing sheet. A leading shear wave is swung around by the Keplerian shear and amplified by self-gravity. One can compare the numerical solution to the result of a numerical integration of the linearised equation system, produced by the IDL script shear_wave_dust.pro (in the idl/ directory).
