SPECEquilibrium{TT, ATT<:Array{TT}, TSA}

All components needed to reconstruct a SPEC equilibrium.

eqname = "testing/data/G3V01L0Fi.002.sp.h5"
speceq = SPECEquilibrium(eqname)

ReadBoundary(fname::String)

Outputs the necessary data to reconstruct a SPEC boundary.

ReadPoincare(fname::String)

Read the Poincaré section for a given SPEC equilibrium output.

find_sθζ(X,ζ,SpecVol::SPECEquilibrium,lvol::Integer,max_attempts=100)

Find the $(s,\theta,\zeta)$ point corresponding to a given $(R,Z)$ point for a fixed $\zeta$. It is possible that the starting location is bad and the located point is outside of the computational domain, in which case we generate random initial conditions until it ends up inside the domain. The point is first approached using the optimize function from Optim.jl, then NonlinearSolve is used to hopefully finish pushing the point as close as possible.

get_RZ(s::TT,θ,ζ,SpecVol::SPECEquilibrium,lvol::Integer) where TT

Get the $(R,Z)$ coordinates from $(s,\theta,\zeta,l_{vol})\in[-1,1]\times[0,2\pi)\times[0,2\pi)\times[1,N_{vol}]$ logical coordinates.

get_axis(SpecVol)

Get the Fourier modes of the magnetic axis of a SPEC equilibrium and output a named tuple axis.R and axis.Z.

get_boundary(SpecVol::SPECEquilibrium, lvol=SpecVol.NumberofVolumes)

Pull the outer boundary from a spec equlibrium data structure.

field_line!(ẋ, t, x, SpecVol::SPECEquilibrium,lvol::Int=1)

In place field line tracing function given a lvol

TODO: Implement for multi-volume spec equilibria

get_Bfield(s::TT, θ::TT, ζ::TT, SpecVol::SPECEquilibrium{TT,ATT,TSA},lvol::Int=1) where {TT,ATT,TSA}

Take a point in $(s,\theta,\zeta)$ and return the covarient (cotangent) components of the magnetic field.
