Changelog • floodam.building

floodam.building 1.4.0.2

load_model()
- keep only one category of elementary components when too many are found and generate a warning
COMPONENT_ELEMENTARY
- keep only one category for activities’ elementary components
analyse_hydraulics()
- adapt to reticulate’s strange way of calling attribute

create_new_model()
- New metadata value for the input_file parameter to generate, from an internal template, the metadata file to be inputted

COMPONENT_ELEMENTARY
- Elementary vulnerability function categories in variable category_vulnerability deduplicated and relabeled

analyse_hydraulics()
- The function now executes the hydraulic module of floodam.building in either the default python virtual environment “floodam” or in a user-defined python virtual environment, provided using the new parameter envname.
manage_python()
- Function to manage the installation of python dependencies needed by the hydraulic module of floodam.building. It creates a virtual environment to avoid system pollution or dependency conflicts.
compatible_python() (internal)
- Internal function that checks whether Python 3 is installed
py_simulate_hydraulics() (internal)
- replace sim_hydrau_py()
- execute the hydraulic module of floodam.building in either the default python virtual environment, “floodam”, or in a user-defined python virtual environment, provided using the new parameter envname.
plot.damaging()
- Finalization of snake_case transformation for internal functions.
plot.model()
- Finalization of snake_case transformation for internal functions.

compute_damage()
- Solved bug provoking error when function called from function apply_measure()
create_new_model()
- export added

Vignettes
- The structure of the input file of floodam.building
- From the architect’s plan to the input file of floodam.building

analyse_hydraulics()
- Function to simulate the hydraulics in the interior of the building
analyse_model()
- New stage “hydraulic”
extract_hydraulic_input()
- Function called by analyse_model() to generate input on exchanges through openings
- Called when “hydraulic” is given as stage
generate_limnigraph()
- Function to generate limnigraph (evolution of water depth against time)
New global variables (input needed by hydraulic simulator)
- floodam_building_hydraulic_discharge_coefficient, default value 0.42
- floodam_building_hydraulic_initial_water_depth_interior default value 0
- floodam_building_hydraulic_closed_opening_clearance default value 0.5
New optional tags in XML input to facilitate the identification of water exchanges through openings and empty walls
- opening names
- wall names

dwelling models
- adu_l : single storey linear 4-room dwelling
- adu_t : single storey 4-room dwelling; 3 rooms around a central room
- adu_t_2room : single storey 2-room dwelling; created by merging rooms in adu_t
- adu_t_invisible: similar to adu_t_2room but instead of merged, rooms are separated by invisible walls
