Sourcecode for final year project on High-energy particle bursts detected by GPS satellites in the outer Van Allen Radiation belt as pre-seismic indicators - Project report is labeled Final dissertation.docx; I do not have access to Microsoft Word so porting it to pdf is not possible at this time however, should it be requested, it could be done.

Please run 'auto2.py' from commandline to make use of this application.
Do not set threads equal to the number of threads you have. Run a test with 1 thread to see what percentage a single thread is, and work from there. Setting threads too high can lead to increased processing time and your system freezing (it should recover). Also recommended that L_thres and alt2test are integer multiple of threads so you do not waste processing time as generally speaking, each element of L_thres/alt2test should take the same amount of time to process.
L_thres values should be greater than 0.000 and reach to around 0.300. Based upon the geometry, we expect that small dL's, sub 0.070, would be most interesting. I highly recommend if you use any range() function that you use an integer range, using a small float range can lead to floating-point arithmetic issues, and then dividing by say 1000 to get floats.
-
Get Python 2.7 (I recommend Anaconda)
-
Install Python/Anaconda to the root of you
C:\Drive. ie along sideC:\Program Files\ C:\Windows\ C:\Users\ -
If you end up with Anaconda 3.6 you can also get a 2.7 environment with minimal extra work. See here
-
-
Get required libraries. If you have Anaconda, simply Google "anaconda " and look for anaconda.org (Recommend the conda-forge varients).
-
Once you find the page, you will be given the command to run, ie conda install -c conda-forge pathos
-
To install, open the Anaconda Prompt (py27) and run the command. The prompt should run you through the install.
-
-
Download the program and extract it to a drive with some room. Be sure to note the path to the scripts.
-
Edit auto2.py with the parameters you want. You need to define the localpath using double slashes.
localpath = 'D:\\jackj\\Documents\\GitHub\\EQPB_2017\\' -
To run, using Commandline (CMD), you need the path to the \py27\python.exe and to the script you wish to run.
- ie
C:\Anaconda35\envs\py27\python.exe D:\jackj\Documents\GitHub\EQPB_2017\auto2.py
