initializeParticles(cfg, releaseLine, dem, inputSimLines='', logName='', relThField='', thName='rel', timestep=0.0)[source]

Initialize DFA simulation

Create particles and fields dictionary according to config parameters release raster and dem

Parameters

  • cfg (configparser) – configuration for DFA simulation

  • releaseLine (dict) – dictionary with info on release

  • dem (dict) – dictionary with dem information

  • inputSimLines (dictionary) – info on input files; real releaseline info required for iniStep

  • relThField (2D numpy array) – if the release thickness is not uniform, give here the releaseRaster

  • thName (str) – name rel, secondaryRel

  • timestep (float) – for log: timestep at which particles are released

Returns

  • particles (dict) – particles dictionary at initial time step

  • fields (dict) – fields dictionary at initial time step
