BonsaiSPH

The version of Bonsai that has support for SPH can be found in the BonsaiSPH branch of this repository.

Bonsai demo keys

• [esc] quit
• [h] / [~] sliders
• [space] toggle simulation
• [r] toggle rendering
• [p] move through particle render modes (volumetric, points, additive point sprites)
• [b] toggle octree boxes
• [l] toggle display light scatter buffer
• [c] fit camera
• [[] decrement minimum octree display level
• []] increment minimum octree display level
• [-] decrement maximum octree display level
• [=] increment maximum octree display level
• [g] toggle glow / post processing
• [f] toggle fly mode (use wasd to steer, right mouse to go faster)
• [n] detonate supernova
• [1] toggle direct (N^2) gravitation

Bonsai Program arguments

Standard:

• -h Display the help and shows default argument values

• -i Input snapshot filename

• --dev Device ID to run simulation on

• -t Simulation time-step

• -T Simulation end-time

• -e Softening-value (will be squared)

• -o Opening angle (theta)

• -r Rebuild tree every # steps

• --snapname Snapshot base name (N-body time is appended in 000000 format)

• --snapiter Snapshot iteration (N-body time)

• --valueadd Value to add to the snapshot name

• --log Enable printfs

• --logfile Filename to store kernel timing information

• --rmdist Particle removal distance (uncommented in the code)

Demo specific:

• --reducebodies Cut down bodies dataset by # factor

• --reducedust Cut down dust dataset by # factor

• --direct Enable N^2 direct gravitation

• --renderdev Device ID to run the visualization on

• --fullscreen Set fullscreen mode string, format: [ width "x" height ][ ":" bitsPerPixel ][ "@" videoRate ]

• --displayfps Enable on-screen FPS display

• --Tglow Enable glowing particles @ # Myr

• --dTglow Reach full brightness in @ # Myr

Compile tips and tricks

Using CMake under Linux:

For Demo purposes: cmake -DUSE_CUB=0 -DUSE_DUST=1 -DUSE_OPENGL=1

For production simulations cmake -DUSE_CUB=0 -DUSE_DUST=0

Using MPI under linux: cmake -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=mpicxx

Compilation for Fermi architecture: cmake -DCOMPILE_SM30=0

Compilation for Tesla architecture: Sorry not supported anymore, time to upgrade your hardware!

Compilation with device debugging: cmake -DCUDA_DEVICE_DEBUGGING=1

Build debug configuration: cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug

(Or use ccmake CMakeCache.txt, to alter the properties)
