v2 is finally here after a lot of hard work. A ton of optimization work went into extending the simulation domain to tenfold, 10240x5120, which improves simulation accuracy. Updated force and stress analysis and squashed a bunch of bugs. (1/3)

Today marks the 1-year anniversary of WTS on the App Store! This ambitious project has much more in store. Extending the tunnel dimension to 10 folds is in development. Stay tuned!

Apologies for the bug. I have just pushed 1.2.1 to the App Store, which should fix the issue. Please keep an eye out for the update and let me know if you encounter any other problems. 😊

Force visualization is back in v1.12.0! While further research is needed to display force magnitude continuously along curves, using the average on individual subdivided curves works for now. Feedback is always welcome!

Feeling official with the new handle @thewtsapp.com ! Still keeping @thewtsapp.bsky.social linked to this one. The setup process was a breezeβ€”took less than a minute. Huge thanks to @bsky.app for making it so seamless! πŸ™

Force distribution visualization is disabled in this version due to rendering issues. It will take some time to resolve and ensure it displays correctly. Hopefully, it will be re-enabled in the next update.

Other minor tweaks and bug fixes aim to provide a smoother experience. (4/4)

The force data is now correctly read from the simulation. Apologies for the incorrect readings in the previous versions, caused by unanticipated GPU thread behavior. (3/4)

Diagrams have been added to illustrate different types of boundary conditions. They’re a startβ€”better-designed illustrations or more detailed explanations might come late. (2/4)
