B simple matrial table run convection models:

   density=density0*(1-rayleigh_number*(temperature-reference_temperature))
   viscocity=viscocity0*(exp(alpha*(1/reference_temperature - 1/temperature))

Method Summary
	`__init__(self, debug)`
	`density(self)`
	`viscosity(self)`
Inherited from ParameterSet
	`__delattr__(self, name)` Removes the attribute name.
	`__iter__(self)` Creates an iterator over the parameter and their values.
	`__repr__(self)`
	`declareParameter(self, **parameters)` Declares a new parameter(s) and its (their) initial value.
	`declareParameters(self, parameters)` Declares a set of parameters.
	`fromDom(cls, doc)` (Class method)
	`releaseParameters(self, name)` Removes parameter name from the paramameters.
	`showParameters(self)` Returns a descrition of the parameters.
	`toDom(self, document, node)` `toDom` method of ParameterSet class.
	`writeXML(self, ostream)` Writes the object as an XML object into an output stream.
Inherited from LinkableObject
	`__getattr__(self, name)` Returns the value of attribute name.
	`__setattr__(self, name, value)` Sets the value for attribute name.
	`getAttributeObject(self, name)` Return the object stored for attribute name.
	`hasAttribute(self, name)` Returns True if self as attribute name.
	`trace(self, msg)` If debugging is on, print the message, otherwise do nothing
Inherited from object
	`__getattribute__(...)` x.__getattribute__('name') <==> x.name
	`__hash__(x)` x.__hash__() <==> hash(x)
	`__new__(T, S, ...)` T.__new__(S, ...) -> a new object with type S, a subtype of T
	`__reduce__(...)` helper for pickle
	`__reduce_ex__(...)` helper for pickle
	`__str__(x)` x.__str__() <==> str(x)

Instance Variable Summary
