advectionFuniform: Uniform advection field

Description

Provides an advection field with constant orthogonal (u and v) components at each grid point. This mimics rigid translation in a given direction according to the components u and v of the velocity vector.

Usage

advectionFuniform(spacepoints, u, v)

Arguments

spacepoints

vector of coordinates (2 x d), where d is the number of locations/grid points

u

velocity component along the x axis

v

velocity component along the y axis

Examples

library(ggquiver)
library(ggplot2)
## specify coordinates
m = 25
aux <- seq(0, m - 1, length = m)
coord <- expand.grid(aux, aux)

af <- advectionFuniform(spacepoints = coord,
                       u = 2,
                       v = 6)

## visualize advection field
dta <- data.frame(lon = coord[ ,1], lat = coord[ ,2], u = af[ ,1], v = af[ ,2])
ggplot(dta, aes(x = lon, y = lat, u = u, v = v)) +
