# Projectile Simulation
|
|
|
|
This project simulates the motion of a projectile with air resistance.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
1. Clone this repository.
|
|
2. Install the required packages using pip:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Run the `main.py` script:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
python main.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or alternatively, with your own parameters:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
python main.py --g 9.8 --C_d 0.02 --v_init 150 --theta 45 --h_init 20 --dt 0.01 --t_end 10
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Arguments
|
|
|
|
- `--g`: The acceleration due to gravity in m/s^2. Default is 9.81.
|
|
- `--C_d`: The drag coefficient. Default is 0.01.
|
|
- `--v_init`: The initial velocity in m/s. Default is 100.
|
|
- `--theta`: The launch angle in degrees. Default is 180.
|
|
- `--h_init`: The launch height in meters. Default is 10.
|
|
- `--dt`: The time step in seconds. Default is 0.01.
|
|
- `--t_end`: The total time of the simulation in seconds. Default is 10.
|
|
|
|
## Testing
|
|
|
|
Tests can be invoked by simply running `pytest` in the directory. If you are contributing something new to the program, do make sure
|
|
that it is appropriately tested in `test_main.py`.
