How to simulate a heat diffusion on a rectangular ring with FiPy?

I am new to solving a PDE and experimenting with a heat diffusion on a copper body of a rectangular ring shape using FiPy.
And this is a plot of simulation result at some times.
I am using the Grid2D() for a mesh and the CellVariable.constrain() to specify boundary conditions. The green dots are centers of exterior faces where T = 273.15 + 25 (K), and blue dots are centers of interior faces where T = 273.15 + 30 (K).
Obviously, I am doing something wrong, because the temperature goes down to 0K. How should I specify boundary conditions correctly?
These are the code.
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import fipy
def get_mask_of_rect(mesh, x, y, w, h):
def left_id(i, j): return mesh.numberOfHorizontalFaces + i*mesh.numberOfVerticalColumns + j
def right_id(i, j): return mesh.numberOfHorizontalFaces + i*mesh.numberOfVerticalColumns + j + 1
def bottom_id(i, j): return i*mesh.nx + j
def top_id(i, j): return (i+1)*mesh.nx + j
j0, i0 = np.floor(np.array([x, y]) / [mesh.dx, mesh.dy]).astype(int)
n, m = np.round(np.array([w, h]) / [mesh.dx, mesh.dy]).astype(int)
mask = np.zeros_like(mesh.exteriorFaces, dtype=bool)
for i in range(i0, i0 + n):
mask[left_id(i, j0)] = mask[right_id(i, j0 + m-1)] = True
for j in range(j0, j0 + m):
mask[bottom_id(i0, j)] = mask[top_id(i0 + n-1, j)] = True
return mask
mesh = fipy.Grid2D(Lx = 1, Ly = 1, nx = 20, ny = 20) # Grid of size 1m x 1m
k_over_c_rho = 3.98E2 / (3.85E2 * 8.96E3) # The thermal conductivity, specific heat capacity, and density of Copper in MKS
dt = 0.1 * (mesh.dx**2 + mesh.dy**2) / (4*k_over_c_rho)
T0 = 273.15 # 0 degree Celsius in Kelvin
T = fipy.CellVariable(mesh, name='T', value=T0+25)
mask_e = mesh.exteriorFaces
T.constrain(T0+25., mask_e)
mask_i = get_mask_of_rect(mesh, 0.25, 0.25, 0.5, 0.5)
T.constrain(T0+30, mask_i)
eq = fipy.TransientTerm() == fipy.DiffusionTerm(coeff=k_over_c_rho)
viewer = fipy.MatplotlibViewer(vars=[T], datamin=0, datamax=400)
plt.ioff()
viewer._plot()
plt.plot(*mesh.faceCenters[:, mask_e], '.g')
plt.plot(*mesh.faceCenters[:, mask_i], '.b')
def update():
for _ in range(10):
eq.solve(var=T, dt=dt)

.constrain() does not work for internal faces (see the warning at the end of Applying internal “boundary” conditions).
You can achieve an internal fixed value condition using sources, however. As a first cut, try
mask_i = get_mask_of_rect(mesh, 0.25, 0.25, 0.5, 0.5)
mask_i_cell = fipy.CellVariable(mesh, value=False)
mask_i_cell[mesh.faceCellIDs[..., mask_i]] = True
largeValue = 1e6
eq = (fipy.TransientTerm() == fipy.DiffusionTerm(coeff=k_over_c_rho)
- fipy.ImplicitSourceTerm(mask_i_cell * largeValue)
+ mask_i_cell * largeValue * (T0 + 30))
This constrains the cells on either side of the faces identified by mask_i to be at T0+30.

I am posting my own answer for future readers.
For boundary conditions for internal faces, you should use the implicit and explicit source terms on the equation, as in the jeguyer's answer.
By using source terms, you don't need to calculate a mask for faces, like this.(The get_mask_of_rect() in my question isn't required.)
T = fipy.CellVariable(mesh, name = 'T', value = T0 + 25)
mask_e = mesh.exteriorFaces
T.constrain(T0 + 25., mask_e)
mask_i_cell = (
(0.25 < mesh.x) & (mesh.x < 0.25 + 0.5) &
(0.25 < mesh.y) & (mesh.y < 0.25 + 0.5)
)
large_value = 1E6
eq = fipy.TransientTerm() == (
fipy.DiffusionTerm(coeff = k_over_c_rho) -
fipy.ImplicitSourceTerm(mask_i_cell * large_value) +
mask_i_cell * (large_value * (T0 + 30) # explicit source
))
viewer = fipy.MatplotlibViewer(vars = [T], datamin = T0, datamax = T0+50)

How to increase FPS in ursina python

I want to create survival games with infinite block terrain(like Minecraft). So i using ursina python game engine, you can see it here
So i using perlin noise to create the terrain with build-in ursina block model. I test for first 25 block and it work pretty good with above 100 FPS, so i start increase to 250 block and more because I want a infinite terrain. But i ran to some problem, when i increase to 100 block or more, my FPS start to decrease below 30 FPS (With i create just one layer).
Here is my code:

interval that the noise repeats, which is useful for creating tiled

the period size, though larger periods mean a larger table, which
consume more memory.

prove useful, they will not be "pure" simplex noise. The largest

To summarize:
"In 2001, Ken Perlin presented 'simplex noise', a replacement for his classic
noise algorithm. Classic 'Perlin noise' won him an academy award and has
become an ubiquitous procedural primitive for computer graphics over the
years, but in hindsight it has quite a few limitations. Ken Perlin himself
designed simplex noise specifically to overcome those limitations, and he
spent a lot of good thinking on it. Therefore, it is a better idea than his
original algorithm. A few of the more prominent advantages are:
* Simplex noise has a lower computational complexity and requires fewer
multiplications.
* Simplex noise scales to higher dimensions (4D, 5D and up) with much less
computational cost, the complexity is O(N) for N dimensions instead of
the O(2^N) of classic Noise.
* Simplex noise has no noticeable directional artifacts. Simplex noise has
a well-defined and continuous gradient everywhere that can be computed
quite cheaply.
* Simplex noise is easy to implement in hardware."

It was working fine but the FPS is very low, so can anyone help?

I'm not able to test this code at the moment but this should serve as a starting point:
level_parent = Entity(model=Mesh(vertices=[], uvs=[]))
for z in range(mapHeight):
for x in range(mapWidth):
height = round(GeneratedNoiseMap(z, x, 20) * maxHeight)
block = Voxel(position=(x, height - maxHeight - 1, z))
level_parent.model.vertices.extend(block.model.vertices)
level_parent.collider = 'mesh' # call this only once after all vertices are set up
For texturing, you might have to add the block.uvs from each block to level_parent.model.uvs as well. Alternatively, call level_parent.model.project_uvs() after setting up the vertices.

On my version of ursina engine (5.0.0) only this code:
`
level_parent = Entity(model=Mesh(vertices=[], uvs=[]))
for z in range(mapHeight):
for x in range(mapWidth):
height = round(GeneratedNoiseMap(z, x, 20) * maxHeight)
block = Voxel(position=(x, height - maxHeight - 1, z))
#level_parent.model.vertices.extend(block.model.vertices)
level_parent.combine().vertices.extend(block.combine().vertices)
level_parent.collider = 'mesh'
`
is working.

resize image with bilinear interpolation in python

I want to resize image with bilinear interpolation. I found new intensity value but I do not know how can I use it.. The code is below which is I written..
def resizeImageBI(im,width,height):
temp = np.zeros((height,width),dtype=np.uint8)
ratio_1 = float(im.size[0] - 1 )/ float(width - 1)
ratio_0 = float(im.size[1] - 1) / float(height - 1)
xx,yy = np.mgrid[:height, :width]
xmap = np.around(xx * ratio_0)
ymap = np.around(yy * ratio_1)
for i in xrange(0, height):
for j in xrange(0,width):
temp[i][j]=im.getpixel( ( ymap[i][j], xmap[i][j]) ) * getNewIntensity(i,j,ratio_1,ratio_0)
return Image.fromarray(temp)
firstly get variable image width ratio and height ratio
lena.png 0.5 1
Orginal image is here
That is output accorting to written code

I just had to do this for a class and I haven't been graded yet, so you should check this out before using.
Basic Interpolation function
def interpolation(y0,x0, y1,x1, x):
frac = (x - x0) / (x1 - x0)
return y0*(1-frac) + y1 * frac
Step 1: Map the original coordinates to the newly resized image
def get_coords(im, W, H):
h,w = im.shape
x = np.arange(0,w+1,1) * W/w
y = np.arange(0,h+1,1) * H/h
return x,y
Step 2: Create a function to interpolate in the x-direction on all rows.
def im_interp(im, H,W):
X = np.zeros(shape=(W,H))
x, y = get_coords(im, W, H)
for i,v in enumerate(X):
y0_idx = np.argmax(y >i) - 1
for j,_ in enumerate(v):
# subtracting 1 because this is the first val
# that is greater than j, want the idx before that
x0_idx = np.argmax(x > j) - 1
x1_idx = np.argmax(j < x)
x0 = x[x0_idx]
x1 = x[x1_idx]
y0 = im[y0_idx, x0_idx - 1]
y1 = im[y0_idx, x1_idx - 1]
X[i,j] = interpolation(y0, x0, y1, x1, j)
return X
Step 3: Use function from the above step to interpolate twice. First on the image in the x-direction, then on the transpose of the newly created image (y-direction)
def im_resize(im,H,W):
X_lin = im_interp(im, H,W)
X = im_interp(X_lin.T, H,W)
return X_lin, X.T
I return both images just to look at the difference.

i'm not sure if you want to do this manually as an exercise...
if not, there is scipy.mics.imresize that can do what you want

multithreaded mandelbrot set

Is it possible to change the formula of the mandelbrot set (which is f(z) = z^2 + c by default) to a different one ( f(z) = z^2 + c * e^(-z) is what i need) when using the escape time algorithm and if possible how?
I'm currently using this code by FB36
# Multi-threaded Mandelbrot Fractal (Do not run using IDLE!)
# FB - 201104306
import threading
from PIL import Image
w = 512 # image width
h = 512 # image height
image = Image.new("RGB", (w, h))
wh = w * h
maxIt = 256 # max number of iterations allowed
# drawing region (xa < xb & ya < yb)
xa = -2.0
xb = 1.0
ya = -1.5
yb = 1.5
xd = xb - xa
yd = yb - ya
numThr = 5 # number of threads to run
# lock = threading.Lock()
class ManFrThread(threading.Thread):
def __init__ (self, k):
self.k = k
threading.Thread.__init__(self)
def run(self):
# each thread only calculates its own share of pixels
for i in range(k, wh, numThr):
kx = i % w
ky = int(i / w)
a = xa + xd * kx / (w - 1.0)
b = ya + yd * ky / (h - 1.0)
x = a
y = b
for kc in range(maxIt):
x0 = x * x - y * y + a
y = 2.0 * x * y + b
x = x0
if x * x + y * y > 4:
# various color palettes can be created here
red = (kc % 8) * 32
green = (16 - kc % 16) * 16
blue = (kc % 16) * 16
# lock.acquire()
global image
image.putpixel((kx, ky), (red, green, blue))
# lock.release()
break
if __name__ == "__main__":
tArr = []
for k in range(numThr): # create all threads
tArr.append(ManFrThread(k))
for k in range(numThr): # start all threads
tArr[k].start()
for k in range(numThr): # wait until all threads finished
tArr[k].join()
image.save("MandelbrotFractal.png", "PNG")

From the code I infer that z = x + y * i and c = a + b * i. That corresponds f(z) - z ^2 + c. You want f(z) = z ^2 + c * e^(-z).
Recall that e^(-z) = e^-(x + yi) = e^(-x) * e^i(-y) = e^(-x)(cos(y) - i*sin(y)) = e^(-x)cos(y) - i (e^(-x)sin(y)). Thus you should update your lines to be the following:
x0 = x * x - y * y + a * exp(-x) * cos(y) + b * exp(-x) * sin(y);
y = 2.0 * x * y + a * exp(-x) * sin(y) - b * exp(-x) * cos(y)
x = x0
You might need to adjust maxIt if you don't get the level of feature differentiation you're after (it might take more or fewer iterations to escape now, on average) but this should be the mathematical expression you're after.
As pointed out in the comments, you might need to adjust the criterion itself and not just the maximum iterations in order to get the desired level of differentiation: changing the max doesn't help for ones that never escape.
You can try deriving a good escape condition or just try out some things and see what you get.

Chaotic billiards simulation

I came to ask for some help with maths and programming.
What am I trying to do? I'm trying to implement a simulation of a chaotic billiard system, following the algorithm in this excerpt.
How am I trying it? Using numpy and matplotlib, I implemented the following code
def boundaryFunction(parameter):
return 1 + 0.1 * np.cos(parameter)
def boundaryDerivative(parameter):
return -0.1 * np.sin(parameter)
def trajectoryFunction(parameter):
aux = np.sin(beta - phi) / np.sin(beta - parameter)
return boundaryFunction(phi) * aux
def difference(parameter):
return trajectoryFunction(parameter) - boundaryFunction(parameter)
def integrand(parameter):
rr = boundaryFunction(parameter)
dd = boundaryDerivative (parameter)
return np.sqrt(rr ** 2 + dd ** 2)
##### Main #####
length_vals = np.array([], dtype=np.float64)
alpha_vals = np.array([], dtype=np.float64)
# nof initial phi angles, alpha angles, and nof collisions for each.
n_phi, n_alpha, n_cols, count = 10, 10, 10, 0
# Length of the boundary
total_length, err = integrate.quad(integrand, 0, 2 * np.pi)
for phi in np.linspace(0, 2 * np.pi, n_phi):
for alpha in np.linspace(0, 2 * np.pi, n_alpha):
for n in np.arange(1, n_cols):
nu = np.arctan(boundaryFunction(phi) / boundaryDerivative(phi))
beta = np.pi + phi + alpha - nu
# Determines next impact coordinate.
bnds = (0, 2 * np.pi)
phi_new = optimize.minimize_scalar(difference, bounds=bnds, method='bounded').x
nu_new = np.arctan(boundaryFunction(phi_new) / boundaryDerivative(phi_new))
# Reflection angle with relation to tangent.
alpha_new = phi_new - phi + nu - nu_new - alpha
# Arc length for current phi value.
arc_length, err = integrate.quad(integrand, 0, phi_new)
# Append values to list
length_vals = np.append(length_vals, arc_length / total_length)
alpha_vals = np.append(alpha_vals, alpha)
count += 1
print "{}%" .format(100 * count / (n_phi * n_alpha))
What is the problem? When calculating phi_new, the equation has two solutions (assuming the boundary is convex, which is.) I must enforce that phi_new is the solution which is different from phi, but I don't know how to do that. Are there more issues with the code?
What should the output be? A phase space diagram of S x Alpha, looking like this.
Any help is very appreciated! Thanks in advance.

One way you could try would be (given there really are only two solutions) would be
epsilon = 1e-7 # tune this
delta = 1e-4 # tune this
# ...
bnds = (0, 2 * np.pi)
phi_new = optimize.minimize_scalar(difference, bounds=bnds, method='bounded').x
if abs(phi_new - phi) < epsilon:
bnds_1 = (0, phi - delta)
phi_new_1 = optimize.minimize_scalar(difference, bounds=bnds_1, method='bounded').x
bnds_2 = (phi + delta, 2 * np.pi)
phi_new_2 = optimize.minimize_scalar(difference, bounds=bnds_2, method='bounded').x
if difference(phi_new_1) < difference(phi_new_2):
phi_new = phi_new_1
else:
phi_new = phi_new_2
Alternatively, you could introduce a penalty-term, e.g. delta*exp(eps/(x-phi)^2) with appropriate choices of epsilon and delta.
