NAME

domain


SYNOPSIS

          domain x_{min} x_{max} y_{min} y_{max}


DESCRIPTION

domain creates the physical domain for the fluid dynamics calculations, $\Omega = [x_{min},x_{max}] \times [y_{min},y_{max}]$. domain requires four arguments. domain has no optional arguments. IBIS requires that the aspect ratio

\begin{displaymath}
\frac{x_{max}-x_{min}}{y_{max}-y_{min}} \end{displaymath}

be a power of 2.

EXAMPLE

          domain 0.00 4.00 0.00 2.00
The physical domain is $(0,4)\times(0,2)$.
