beam_integrals 1.1.2

Description:

beam integrals 1.1.2

About
Console app and Python API for determining beam integrals of all 6 supported
beam types, as described in [Milasinovic1997]. This is a reengineered, advanced
version of our previous work.
This work is a part of the investigation within the research projects:
[ON174027] and [TR36017], supported by the Ministry for Science and
Technology, Republic of Serbia. This support is gratefully acknowledged.
Continuous integration is powered by Jenkins.

Installation
To install beam_integrals run:
$ pip install beam_integrals
It’s strongly recommended to install gmpy. Without it code will still run
correctly, but much slower at high precision.


Console app usage
Quick start:
$ beam_integrals <subcomand> ...
Show help:
$ beam_integrals help


Python API usage
Quick start:
>>> from beam_integrals.beam_types import FreeFreeBeam
>>> from beam_integrals.integrals import I1, integrate
>>> integrate(I1(), FreeFreeBeam(), a=1., m=1, n=1, error=True)

Feature additions


Added a heuristic to help guessing the scale function/factor, as per the
section 3.4 of my PhD thesis.
