Needs["pkg`"] is only evaluated for the first time!

Initialize the notebook:

If[Length[Names["`*"]]>0,Remove["`*"]];

If[$InputFileName === "",
  SetDirectory[NotebookDirectory[]],
  SetDirectory[DirectoryName[$InputFileName]]
];

Plot:

PlotBasicStyle[width_]:=Sequence[PlotTheme->{"Scientific","Monochrome"},
BaseStyle->{FontSize->10,FontFamily->"Times"},
LabelStyle->{FontSize->10,FontFamily->"Times"},
ImageSize->width/2.54*100,
AspectRatio->1/GoldenRatio
];


PlotExport[file_,plot_,width_]:=Module[{dir},
dir=DirectoryName[file];
dir=If[dir==="",NotebookDirectory[],dir];
If[!DirectoryQ[dir],CreateDirectory[dir,CreateIntermediateDirectories->True]];
Export[file,plot,ImageResolution->600,RasterSize->Round[width/2.54*600],Background->None]
];


figNum=1;

figWidth=8;

plot[figNum]=Plot[Sin[x],{x,0,1},Evaluate[PlotBasicStyle[figWidth]]]

PlotExport["plot.png",plot[figNum],figWidth];

Collect coefficients:

Collect[eq,{Cos[_],Sin[_],a[_],b[_]},Simplify]

Matlab

Matlab install in linux:

sudo apt install unrar

unrar x MathWorks.part1.rar 

xhost +SI:localuser:root

sudo -H ./install

xhost -SI:localuser:root

Add matlab app:

sudo vim /usr/share/applications/matlab.desktop


[Desktop Entry]

Type=Application

sudo chmod +x /usr/share/applications/matlab.desktop

OpenFOAM

OpenFOAM install in linux:

#!/bin/bash

cd $HOME/OpenFOAM/

sudo rm -rf OpenFOAM-v2512
sudo tar -xzf OpenFOAM-v2512.tgz

sudo rm -rf ThirdParty-v2512
sudo tar -xzf  ThirdParty-v2512.tar.gz

sudo chmod -R 777 OpenFOAM-v2512
sudo chmod -R 777 ThirdParty-v2512

cd OpenFOAM-v2512

source ./etc/bashrc

foamSystemCheck

./Allwmake -with-bear -j 4 -s -q -l

alias of2512='source ~/openfoam/OpenFOAM-v2512/etc/bashrc'

Test dynamicMeshDict:

#!/bin/bash

foamCleanTutorials

blockMesh

moveDynamicMesh -noFunctionObjects

Apply linear motion before rotational motion to make rotational origin attached to the body.

Paraview install in linux:

sudo apt-get install libxcb-cursor-dev

Add paraview app:

sudo vim /usr/share/applications/paraview.desktop


[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=ParaView 6.0.1
Exec=$HOME/paraview/ParaView/bin/paraview
Terminal=false
Icon=$HOME/paraview/ParaView-6.0.1/share/icons/hicolor/96x96/apps/paraview.png
Type=Application


sudo chmod +x /usr/share/applications/paraview.desktop

The interfaceHeight position can not overlap the decomposeParDict mesh boundaries!

Bash Scripts

Git config:

git config --global user.name "Peng Peng"

git config --global user.email "211110103110@stu.just.edu.cn"

Git uppercase to lowercase:

git mv Uppercase lowercase

Compress pdf:

ghostscript -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -dBATCH \
    -sOutputFile=out.pdf file.pdf

Convert mp4 to gif:

ffmpeg -i file.mp4 file.gif

Proxy for WSL2:

export all_proxy="socks5://$(awk '/nameserver/ {print $2}' /etc/resolv.conf):${Port:-7890}"

git config --global proxy.https "${all_proxy:-}"

Vscode proxy setting:

{
  "http.proxyStrictSSL": false,
  "http.proxy": "http://ipconfig-IPv4 Address:7890",  
}

mpirun test:

mpirun -np 4 hostname

For desktop, WSL2 mirror network may affect mpirun!
