Usage: createTurbulenceFields [OPTIONS]
options:
-case <dir> specify alternate case directory, default is the cwd
-constant include the 'constant/' dir in the times list
-fields <wordReList>
specify which turbulence fields (k, epsilon, omega, R) to
write - eg '(k omega)' or '(R)' or '(.*)'.
-latestTime select the latest time
-newTimes select the new times
-noFunctionObjects
do not execute functionObjects
-noZero exclude the '0/' dir from the times list, has precedence
over the -withZero option
-parallel run in parallel
-roots <(dir1 .. dirN)>
slave root directories for distributed running
-time <ranges> comma-separated time ranges - eg, ':10,20,40:70,1000:'

The built-in explicit symplectic integrator has been replaced by a
general framework supporting run-time selectable integrators. Currently
the explicit symplectic, implicit Crank-Nicolson and implicit Newmark
methods are provided, all of which are 2nd-order in time:
Symplectic 2nd-order explicit time-integrator for 6DoF solid-body motion:

Symplectic splitting methods for rigid body molecular dynamics.
The Journal of chemical physics, 107(15), 5840-5851.
Can only be used for explicit integration of the motion of the body,
i.e. may only be called once per time-step, no outer-correctors may be
applied. For implicit integration with outer-correctors choose either
CrankNicolson or Newmark schemes.
Example specification in dynamicMeshDict:
solver
{
type symplectic;
}
Newmark 2nd-order time-integrator for 6DoF solid-body motion:
Reference:
Newmark, N. M. (1959).
A method of computation for structural dynamics.
Journal of the Engineering Mechanics Division, 85(3), 67-94.
Example specification in dynamicMeshDict:
solver
{
type Newmark;
gamma 0.5; // Velocity integration coefficient
beta 0.25; // Position integration coefficient
}
Crank-Nicolson 2nd-order time-integrator for 6DoF solid-body motion:
The off-centering coefficients for acceleration (velocity integration) and
velocity (position/orientation integration) may be specified but default
values of 0.5 for each are used if they are not specified. With the default
off-centering this scheme is equivalent to the Newmark scheme with default
coefficients.
Example specification in dynamicMeshDict:
solver
{
type CrankNicolson;
aoc 0.5; // Acceleration off-centering coefficient
voc 0.5; // Velocity off-centering coefficient
}
Both the Newmark and Crank-Nicolson are proving more robust and reliable
than the symplectic method for solving complex coupled problems and the
tutorial cases have been updated to utilize this.
In this new framework it would be straight forward to add other methods
should the need arise.

This is experimental functionality and currently on test in the yPlus
post-processing utility.
Command-line option handling:
+ If -all specified or no refineMeshDict exists or, refine all cells
+ If -dict <file> specified refine according to <file>
+ If refineMeshDict exists refine according to refineMeshDict
When the refinement or all cells is selected apply 3D refinement for 3D
cases and 2D refinement for 2D cases.
