Dielectric Breakdown Simulator

Compiling the code

The code is compilable using bazel.

The .devcontainer directory creates a docker container that installs bazelisk which is a friendly launcher for Bazel. You can run the same build commands using bazel or bazelisk.

• Compile everythin:

  bazelisk build src/...
  

• Run tests

  bazelisk test src:all \
      --test_output=all \
      --cache_test_results=no \
      --nouse_action_cache
  

• Clean Bazel cache

  bazelisk clean
  

Better code completion and IDE

• Hedron's Compile Commands Extractor for Bazel: This build rule adds a compile_commands.json file and an external directory to the Bazel workspace directory so that the IDE works better with the dependency recovery.

  bazelisk run @hedron_compile_commands//:refresh_all
  

Class definitions

• Node class represents a point in space that breakdown has happened.
• NodeManager class is responsible for creating new nodes as the simulation progresses.
  • This class depends on Node class and RandomPositionGenerator class.
• RandomPositionGenerator creates random positions for breakdown locations.
• BreakdownDetector is responsible to detect breakdowns
