Abstract:

TYCHO is a multidimensional compressible hydrodynamics code written in C and parallelized with Open-MP. A Lagrangian remap version of the Piecewise Parabolic Method developed by Paul Woodward and Phil Colella (1984) is applied. The code is based on the freely available http://wonka.physics.ncsu.edu/pub/VH-1/index.phpVH-1 Package. The simulation package is focused on gas-obstacle interactions and has special routines for obstacles in wind streams and advection of marker fields for investigations of obstacle-gas interactions. TYCHO is freely available to everyone. You are welcome to download it and do whatever you want with it. I would appreciate, however, if you would acknowledge the package in you publications/work and if you send me information for what purpose you use the code. Keep in mind that this code does not come with any guarantee.
