frispy.wind

The Wind class handles the wind, which is a real-valued time-dependent vector field that influences the flight of the disc.

Classes

Wind	Abstract class to handle different types of wind. These can include
NoWind	No wind.
ConstantWind	The wind is uniform in position and constant in time.

class frispy.wind.Wind

Bases: abc.ABC

Abstract class to handle different types of wind. These can include steady, laminar flow winds or swirling winds. Winds can have a time dependence to mimic “gusts”.

abstract get_wind(self, t: Optional[Union[float, int, numpy.ndarray]], position: Optional[Union[List, numpy.ndarray]]) → numpy.ndarray

Obtain a length 3 vector of the wind at time t.

class frispy.wind.NoWind

Bases: Wind

No wind.

get_wind(self, *args) → numpy.ndarray

All components are zero.

class frispy.wind.ConstantWind(wind_vector: Optional[numpy.ndarray] = None)

Bases: Wind

The wind is uniform in position and constant in time.

get_wind(self, *args) → numpy.ndarray

Obtain a length 3 vector of the wind at time t.
