The onset of vertical damping can now be graduated over a distance. The
user specifies an origin and a direction along which the graduation
occurs, and a ramping function to specify the form of the graduation. An
example specification for the fvOption is:
verticalDamping1
{
type verticalDamping;
selectionMode all;
origin (1200 0 0);
direction (1 0 0);
ramp
{
type halfCosineRamp;
start 0;
duration 600;
}
lambda [0 0 -1 0 0 0 0] 1; // Damping coefficient
timeStart 0;
duration 1e6;
}
If the origin, direction or ramp entries are omitted then the fvOption
functions as before; applying the damping to the entire volume or the
specified cell set.
