A python-based workflow for parameter studies of preCICE tutorial cases

The package prepesthel provides utilities for parameter studies of coupled simulations using multiple executables. This includes

• prepesthel.participants for definition one or multiple Participants that contribute to a coupled simulation. This includes parameters needed for the individual runs etc.
• prepesthel.runner for orchestration of the participants according to their definition and postprocessing of the results. The prepesthel.runner also provides functionality to automatically creates a precice-config.xml from a given template. Refer to examples/precice-config-template.xml
• prepesthel.io for outputting reports of multiple runs including metadata about the runs.

Run pip3 install . in this folder. Or install the latest release from PyPI via pip3 install prepesthel.

examples/doConvergenceStudy.py shows an example script using prepesthel for a convergence study of a coupled simulation.
