Practical lessons for controlling cloud costs while running FEniCS simulations and simulation-driven data-generation workloads.
I've been exploring Google Cloud computing for large-scale synthetic data generation and one of my first challenges was getting FEniCS running on a cloud VM.
As I continued exploring Google Cloud for my FEniCS simulations and synthetic data generation, I needed to figure out the best way to connect to my VMs.
One of the first things I had to learn when working with Google Cloud for my FEniCS simulations was how to properly manage VM instances.
When using Docker frequently, it often leads to the accumulation of unused containers, cache files and other dependencies that make the system heavy and fill up the C: drive.
Every blog post that goes in internet has many points that make them great for any reader.
The use varies whether it used in function header or while calling any function.
Reading a research article is an art.
In Python, whenever you wish to rotate any plot, you can do that with the help of Rotational Transformation.
When using array in Python, there can be instances when you need to find the dimension of the array.
np.zeros() generate the array of given shape and type, with zeros being its elements.
LS-DYNA can be a great software when doing the explicit analysis or the analysis that happen in fraction of a seconds.
Output text of the Python can look too monotnous as it lacks the color.
To plot ellipse in Python you can use the polar form of the ellipse which is
In Python, there are multiple ways to plot a curve, you can plot by defining the function or you can give the coordinates of the curve.
In Jupyter notebook, you can add interactive widgets to visualize and manipulate codes and data.
Being a computataional enigneer, your day will remain incomplete without typing custom codes in code-editor or doing simulations.
