Run VCell 4.7 (beta)
New Beta: 6-26-09
Important information about beta
The beta version is a pre-release preview of the Virtual Cell software. It is available for testing and feed back purposes. You may choose to use the beta version for new functions that are not yet available in the release version. If you choose to use this version, please send your comments and findings to vcell@uchc.edu
New Features
- Solvers
- New combined CVODE/IDA solver for compartmental simulations.
- New fully implicit finite volume solver for spatial simulations
- Improved solvers to handle user-defined discontinuities
- Terminology: Finite Volume solver= Semi-implict finite volume solver
- Initial Conditions
- Advection (Velocity) added to Initial conditions in BioModels
- Initial conditions can be specified in terms of other model parameters, reserved symbols and species.
- Geometry
- New assistant dialog for creating analytic shapes in geometry editor
- Terminology: SubVolumes= subdomains
- User Interface
- Expression editors: Improved with auto-complete text
- Data Export: Variables separated into membrane and volume variables
- Simulation Editor/Advanced: New output option for semi-implicit solvers
- Applications: Application menu added to main menu
- Applications: Display of application methods (deterministic/stochastic) and geometric dimensions (compartmental/1D/2D/3D)
