Instructions for using code:

First obtain the program files from the gzipped, tarred archive and move into the appropriate directory with the commands
      tar xzf Lgapack-0.98.tar.gz
      cd Lgapack-0.98
      cd Fhp6_simp
Next compile the program by typing "make". At this point the program may be run directly, but will only simulate flow in an open channel of a specified size. To create more interesting obstacle configurations, one can either use the program in the solid directory, or else use the "bitmap" program to graphically design obstructions. Then, using the conv.c program, one can convert the output of bitmap into input that fhp6_simp can recognize. All that remains to be done is change the coordinates in the parameters.h file to match the size of the image produced in bitmap. In addition other factors may be changed, like the forcing rate or the density. More information can be found in the HOW_TO_USE file provided in the archive.
