Jan 1, 2025January 2025 – Particula (uncscode/particula) delivered a substantial set of kernel enhancements, numerical robustness improvements, and QA/Docs upgrades across the repository. Key features include gravitational settling kernel (Fixes #563) and turbulent shear kernel with updated docs (Fixes #564), plus a broad Kolmogorov suite (time, length, velocity) with initialization exposure and tests. The work also adds multiple physics kernels (RMS velocity, integral scale, microscale, inertia/derived settling velocity, A_O coefficient, longitudinal velocity correlation, Psi function) and supporting fixes (diameter-to-radius fix in the shear kernel; Sigma fit from DNS; radial velocity; Phi function). Foundational DNS kernel groundwork was laid with a new folder structure, initial G12 code chunk, matrix calculation re-org, and a numerically stable formulation. Validation and quality gates were strengthened (temperature/pressure validation; density unit handling; test/imports/lint improvements; version update) along with comprehensive documentation updates (docs formatting, wiki links). Impact: these changes increase physical modeling fidelity, simulation stability, and usability for researchers and engineers, while reinforcing code health and CI readiness.
