Thanks for working on this! @jorgeypcb I made some comments throughout the code changes just to clarify certain changes and questions that I have. Just one larger item: the examples/tutorials also use autograd and will need to be updated too - I expect this will be simpler after updating all the source code but wanted to make sure you are aware.

As you make more updates, you should be able to just update this PR and don't need to make a new one.

tests/test_core.py

-
+import jax.numpy as jnp
+from jax import vmap
+from jax import jit


Can you explain why these need to be added to the tests since autograd is not used here?

Because of the integration of Jax arrays in the core functions. I used JAX arrays in a lot of places for improved performance and compatibility with JAX's ecosystems. So I needed to modify some tests to specifically deal with those

+        # Set a tolerance or delta value
+        tolerance = 1e-6  # You can adjust this based on your precision requirements
+        zero_freq_check = jnp.allclose(modified_column, 1.0, atol=tolerance)
+        assert zero_freq_check


Seems like test_zero_freq() should work fine as it was. Does this avoid an anticipated error?

There are some numerical precision issues due to floating point arithmetic discrepancies with JAX arrays that were very annoying because they barely broke most of the tests with a very small margin.

Same question as above. I see the value of printing here though.

Why increase this tolerance?

It was a similar problem with small margins due to the new JAX related calculations being introduced.

Does this function not evaluate if not a jax array?

Yes that is right, I explicitly needed to convert the freq list with a JAX array before passing it to frquency_parameters because of the JAX operations related changes I made to frequency_parameters

If they are I don't think it is a big deal, because the user does not create x_wec or x_opt manually (except potentially x_wec_0 and x_opt_0).

The damping shift should still be included here.

Just added the damping shift back and checked that the test still passes. Thank you mentioning that

Is this changed because a function does not accept the JAX array?

Yes, it was just for consistency with the DataArray inputs and the seamless integration with the xarray ecosystem DataArrays have

Looks like pto.py and waves.py are still being updated so will wait to add comments to those

Yes, it passed all the tests but I am working on it because of problems with waves

I don't think we should print these to maintain consistency with the rest of the waves.py functions.

Those I was using for debugging the problems I was having with the waves test, I already removed them and I will make sure when I push the test_wave.py fully working, I don't leave any fugitive prints behind.

we shouldn't have print statements in the tests. If these should be checked use assert.

Those I was using at the time when working on the wave test file, that test I actually already passed and deleted them but I have one more error to go, I am having some differences between the values of S_data and pm_spectrum on the assertion and right now the max difference I am seeing at a given index is 1.8, so a tolerance of 2 passes the test but that is too much don't you think? I thought this was a good time to ask you that. I a exploring why the JAX changes moved these calculations but I still can't quite figure it out , it really shouldn't have. but that test_time_series is the only one I have left throwing an error, that is the good news. The other 30 passed.

Looking good! I added some minor comments.

@jorgeypcb jax.scipy.optimize.minimize currently only has BFGS implemented. But... could we use just scipy.optimize.minimize and use Jax manually for providing the gradients?

We could try! I will be testing that today and if it works I will see how it compares to the other pull request I did where I used the original setup with some slight changes to get it to work with cyipopt minimize_ipopt, to see which option is better. I did that pull request with my RageTech account 👍
