Description

This is the first official release of v3 of Dedalus, which entails substantial restructuring from v2 to support:

  • curvilinear bases
  • tensorial equation entry (div, grad, curl)
  • higher-order problem formulations
  • problems involving fields with different dimensionalities

Supported bases now include:

  • Fourier (real and complex)
  • Jacobi (including Chebyshev and Legendre)
  • Annulus (using rational Chebyshev functions)
  • Disk (using one-sided Jacobi polynomials)
  • Sphere (using spin-weighted spherical harmonics)
  • SphericalShell (using rational Chebyshev functions)
  • Ball (using one-sided Jacobi polynomials)

Other changes are documented in the Changes from Dedalus v2 docs.
