FluidSim is the numerically oriented package of the `FluidDyn project
`__. The project is still in a
testing stage so it is still pretty unstable and many of its planned
features have not yet been implemented.

It has first been developed by `Pierre Augier
`_ (CNRS
researcher at `LEGI `_, Grenoble) at
KTH (Stockholm) as a numerical code to solve fluid equations in a
periodic two-dimensional space with pseudo-spectral methods.

*Key words and ambitions*: fluid dynamics research with Python (2.7 or
>= 3.3); modular, object-oriented, collaborative, tested and
documented, free and open-source software.
