mst.py unionfind.py from 2011

Old mst.py with Kruskal's algorithm

mst.py is simple old (2011) code for MSTs using Kruskal's algorithm -- see the animation there.

Kleinberg-Tardos:

single-link k-clustering == MST k-1 most expensive edges

but min( max spacing ), Theorem 1, may be wrong or at least odd for k-clustering ?

Windspeeds in Bayern, COSMO_REA6 vs. ERA5

Windspeeds in Bayern, COSMO_REA6 vs. ERA5

Here are plots of average windspeeds in Bayern in January 2018 at 100m,
COSMO_REA6 on its ~ 6 × 6 km grid
ERA5 on its 0.25° × 0.25° grid.
We see big differences over the Alps in the south and over hilly areas in north Bayern.

How efficient are wind, sun, biomass in the German provinces in 2019 - 2020 13 Nov 2022

How efficient are wind, sun, biomass in the German provinces in 2019 - 2020 ?

Keywords: Renewable energy, wind energy, electricity, Germany

Purpose: look at the efficiency of electricity produced in the German provinces from sun, wind and biomass, with files from official data:

Wind speeds and capacity factors in the Netherlands from wikipedia, KNMI and globalwindatlas 31 Oct 2022

Windspeeds and capacity factors in the Netherlands from wikipedia, KNMI and globalwindatlas

Keywords: wind, wind farm, wind speed, capacity factor, onshore, Netherlands, globalwindatlas, GWA, KNMI

What I want to do is show my neighbors around Munich that windfarms make more sense where there's more wind. GWA has a nice GUI, which everyone can understand. But are their wind speed and capacity factors accurate enough to convince anyone ?

Introduction to Netherlands wind data with xarray

Keywords: Netherlands, wind, wind speed, KNMI, python, xarray, data-carpentry

Purpose: introduce Netherlands wind data from KNMI, the Royal Netherlands$ Meteorological Institute, with the steps:

  1. download 2 \.nc files by hand, one day and one gridpoint
  2. look at them in xarray

Purpose: I'm trying to show my neighbors around Munich that windfarms make more sense where there's more wind. To this end, here's a map of GWA windspeeds at 150m, together with the sites of 202 windfarms in Bayern:

Poisson2 - 4 I: nice test matrices for linear solvers and eigensolvers 25 Jun 2022

Poisson2 - 4 I: nice test matrices for linear solvers and eigensolvers

Purpose: a simple generator of test matrices for linear solvers and eigensolvers

Keywords: sparse-matrix, linear-solver, eigensolver, arpack, nullspace, python

poisson2( n ) below generates sparse $n^2 \ x \ n^2$ matrices $A$ with $A$ symmetric (aka Hermitian) and positive-definite; solving $A \ x = b$ is then relatively easy. $A_4 = A - 4 I$ is more interesting: there are $n$ vectors $z_i$
