flory.common.phases

Module providing common utilities to deal with phases and their composition.

Classes

`Phases`	Contains information about compositions and relative sizes of many phases.
`PhasesResult`	Contains compositions and relative sizes of many phases along with extra information.

class Phases(volumes, fractions)[source]

Bases: object

Contains information about compositions and relative sizes of many phases.

Parameters:

volumes¶ (ndarray) – 1D array with shape \(N_\mathrm{P}\), containing the volume \(J_p\) of each phase.
fractions¶ (ndarray) – 2D array with shape \(N_\mathrm{P} \times N_\mathrm{C}\), containing the volume fractions of the components in each phase \(\phi_{p,i}\). The first dimension must be the same as volumes.

Public Data Attributes:

`num_phases`	Number of phases \(N_\mathrm{P}\).
`num_components`	Number of components \(N_\mathrm{C}\).
`total_volume`	Total volume of entire system
`mean_fractions`	Mean fraction averaged over phases \(\bar{\phi}_i\)

Public Methods:

`normalize`()	normalize the phases so that their volumes adds to one
`sort`()	Sort the phases according to the index of most concentrated components.
`get_clusters`([dist])	Find clusters of compositions.

Private Methods:

_copy(volumes, fractions)

create copy with changed volume and fraction

_copy(volumes, fractions)[source]

create copy with changed volume and fraction

This method helps with subclassing methods that should keep other information intact.
