Releases: gprMax/gprMax
v.3.0.17 (Bowmore)
This is the v.3.0.17, codenamed Bowmore, release of gprMax.
Version 3.0.17 contains the following specific enhancements and bug fixes since v.3.0.14:
- Fixed missing argument in current function calls with snapshots. Occurred due to updating function arguments for calculating currents.
- Fixed issue with importing user geometry due to solid array allocating more cells than necessary (fixes #92 ).
- Fixed stability issue with
#transmission_linewhen using larger impedances (fixes #89 ).
All the features are described in detail in the User Guide (http://docs.gprmax.com)
Please report any bugs with code via Issues on GitHub.

v.3.0.12 (Bowmore)
This is the v.3.0.12, codenamed Bowmore, release of gprMax.
Version 3.0.12 contains the following specific enhancements and bug fixes since v.3.0.9:
- Fixed dispersion analysis for 2D simulations with non-cubic cells.
- Added printing of detected CPU type/frequency.
- Corrected bug with #geometry_objects_read command. It was over-writing an existing variable 'geometry'.
- User library: Added ability to rotate antenna models 90 degrees CCW in the x-y plane.
- Added check for space character between command name and parameters.
- Changed default default for saving and plotting of receiver output components to only electric and magnetic fields, i.e. no longer current.
- Added progress bars for building PMLs and writing geometry object files.
- Added more informative messages (via analysis) on numerical dispersion.

v.3.0.9 (Bowmore)
This is the v.3.0.9, codenamed Bowmore, release of gprMax.
Version 3.0.9 contains the following specific enhancements and bug fixes since v.3.0.8:
- Corrected bug with Peplinki mixing model where number of dispersive poles was not being set. Therefore, no dispersive behaviour was occurring.
- Renamed
#geometry_objects_filecommand to#geometry_objects_read - Created new
#geometry_objects_writecommand to allow complex geometry to be saved to file(s) for re-use/importing into subsequent models (see http://docs.gprmax.com/en/latest/input.html#geometry-objects-write) - Added ability to turn dielectric smoothing on/off when reading geometry back from file (
#geometry_objects_read). - Added dielectric smoothing option when using
#fractal_boxcommand.

v.3.0.8 (Bowmore)
This is the v.3.0.8, codenamed Bowmore, release of gprMax.
Version 3.0.8 contains the following performance or bug fixes since v.3.0.7:
- Corrected out-of-bounds bug when using
#add_rough_surfacecommand. - Corrected performance bug with setting
OMP_WAIT_POLICY. - Corrected bug with checking whether centre of circle was within domain for
#cylindrical_sectorcommand. - Corrected bugs with MPI task farm operation.

This is the v.3.0.7, codenamed Bowmore, release of gprMax.
Version 3.0.7 contains performance improvements since v.3.0.6:
- Refactoring of standard field update functions
- Refactoring of PML update functions
- General code cleanups/improvements
- Up to 14% speed increases seen with larger models (>3M cells) on certain machines

v.3.0.6 (Bowmore)
This is the v.3.0.6, codenamed Bowmore, release of gprMax.
Version 3.0.6 contains a number of minor bug fixes and usability/performance improvements since v.3.0.0:
#rx_boxcommand renamed to#rx_arrayand can create 1D, 2D, and 3D arrays of#rxcommands- Receiver outputs now stored in memory until end of simulation then written to output file. This provides a speed improvement.
- Fixed bug with complex number in Lorenz material coefficients
- Added options for 5th and 6th degree polynomial scaling for PML
- Improved progress bars and a splash of colour
- More informative messages printed to stdout
- PEP8 code cleanups
