Module phi.physics

Contains built-in physics functions, mainly for partial differential equations, such as incompressible fluids. The actual physics functions are located in the submodules of phi.physics.

Some physics functions have built-in time advancement while others return the PDE term, i.e. the derivative. The time-advancing functions always take a time increment argument called dt.
