characteristic_equation_routines.f90 File Reference

This module handles the characteristic equation routines. These equations are often used in concert with 1D fluid modelling to describe wave propagation phenomena, which is particularly useful for models of vascular trees. These equations are also often solved using a discontinuous nodal solution method, rather than FEM. More...

Detailed Description

This module handles the characteristic equation routines. These equations are often used in concert with 1D fluid modelling to describe wave propagation phenomena, which is particularly useful for models of vascular trees. These equations are also often solved using a discontinuous nodal solution method, rather than FEM.
