Re: YADE on GitHub. Moving main repository. Janek moves too ; )

 

Hi,

two years passed since you moved to github and finally I am ready to
move with you and do some development :) And so I request now access
to yade/trunk.git as currently I have this:

  $ git push
  ERROR: Permission to yade/trunk.git denied to cosurgi.

Also please accept my apologies for not attending this summer conference
where I wanted to share my plans with you. It happened that just a
few days before the conference we have moved with whole family and it
was very difficult to get things sorted out so quickly in a new
place. And so I could not prepare anything. I expected that we will
move faster, well before the conference, but it took longer than
expected.

So, for now we will have to resort to this mailing list
communications, but I hope to attend the next conference :)

As some of you already know I was studying physics in past 5 years.
I was so busy with notebooks and books that I was contributing very
little to yade during that time. But I learned a lot :) Now I am
starting my (third) master thesis: it will focus on quantum
mechanics. I plan to defend it on summer 2015.

I think that I already understand Schrodinger's equation. But solving
this, and solving Dirac's equation will be great to learn more about
how it really works :) I'm not sure though if that could be
interesting for other yade folks :) But if it works then maybe
in the future we will see new yade users from the area of quantum
mechanics!

So currently I am working on implementing quantum mechanics in /pkg/qm/
package for yade.

I just wanted to make a first small commit, where I added
std::complex<Real> to possible types in qt4 inspect, because QM uses
complex numbers everywhere. In the future I hope to use quaternions
too, for example based on book by S.Adler "Quaternionic quantum
mechanics and quantum fields" :)

best regards
Janek Kozicki
