Simple lattice boltzmann solver ported to golang

Lattice Boltzman Solver

This was a project that was created primarily to learn golang. It uses gomobile to build artifacts for android and ios, the application can also run on mac, linux and windows.

NOTE: This project is unmaintained - I have uploaded the code for reference.

Usage

• Install pre-requisites
  • Install golang
  • Install gomobile go get golang.org/x/mobile/cmd/gomobile
  • Initialize gomobile gomobile init (This could take a few minutes)
• Build on windows, linux or mac
  • go build .
  • Run the go_lbm binary
• Build mobile applications
  • iOS - gomobile build -target=ios .
  • Android - gomobile build -target=android .
  • For more information on building for mobile applications, refer to gomobile docs.
• Alternatively, use make along with the provided Makefile
