BuckinghamPy: A Python software for dimensional analysis

The Buckingham Pi (Π) theorem is useful in determining the dimensionless terms that describe a physical phenomenon. The number of these terms grows with the number of variables. The traditional approach in identifying dimensionless quantities for a given system can be tedious and error-prone. Buckin...
