open-pic is a 3D Particle-In-Cell (PIC) code
for collisionless plasma simulation.
Depends on luabind and boost libraries.

Build steps for Ubuntu 18:

Install lua
sudo apt-get install lua5.1

1. Extract /3rdparty/3rdparty.tar.xz ti the same directory
2. In Makefile and setup.sh set the OPIC_DIR to your local repo directory path
3. Run
   make
   in your local repo directory path
4. Make sure that the “opic” binary eecutable is created.
5. Copy “opic” file to /sim/m15d1
   cp ./opic ./sim/m15d1/
6. Run comands listed setup.sh commands in your terminal
7. Run
   cd ./sim/m15d1
8. Run open-pic sumulation
   opic main.lua

See “main.lua” and other Lua scripts for simulation flow control.
