System Requirements Document (SRD)
Project Name: storm-dashboard
1. Introduction
The storm-dashboard is a cutting-edge Streamlit web application designed to merge advanced theoretical physics with real-time aerospace engineering. This project serves as a "Tully Grid Monitor," displaying the SU(5) Grand Unified Theory (GUT) mathematical breaking on one tab and live 3D radar scattering/Delta Wave metrics on another. The dashboard is tailored to provide an immersive and interactive experience for users, enabling them to visualize and manipulate complex data in a user-friendly interface.
This document outlines the system requirements for the storm-dashboard, ensuring it meets the needs of its intended users while adhering to the highest standards of functionality, design, and performance.

2. System Overview
The storm-dashboard is a dual-purpose application that combines:
- Theoretical Physics Visualization: Showcasing SU(5) symmetry breaking and its connection to Eâ icosahedral geometry.
- Aerospace Engineering Metrics: Displaying live telemetry data, including radar scattering and Delta Wave metrics, in an interactive 3D format.
The dashboard is designed for use in academic, research, and aerospace engineering contexts, providing a seamless blend of theoretical rigor and practical application. It is optimized for Australian users (locale: en-AU) and assumes the Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) timezone.
Key features include:
- Interactive 3D visualization of quasicrystals.
- Dynamic updates to SU(5) equations based on user inputs.
- Real-time telemetry data visualization with customizable parameters.
3. Functional Requirements
- As a User, I should be able to interact with a 3D quasicrystal model, rotating and zooming it directly within the dashboard.
- As a User, I should be able to dynamically update SU(5) equations based on sidebar input parameters.
- As a User, I should be able to adjust radar frequency and view its impact on the 3D scattering visualization.
- As a User, I should be able to monitor live telemetry metrics, including manifold tension and Delta Phase, with real-time updates.
- As a User, I should be able to view theoretical physics explanations alongside engineering metrics in a split-screen layout.

This palette evokes a sense of depth, precision, and innovation, aligning with the project's identity.
6. Signature Design Concept
Page 4 of 6
Interactive Cosmic Nexus
The homepage of the storm-dashboard will feature an Interactive Cosmic Nexus â a vivid, rotating 3D galaxy map where each star represents a key feature or section of the dashboard.
- Visuals: The galaxy map will have glowing, pulsating stars connected by dynamic lines, symbolizing the interconnectedness of theoretical physics and aerospace engineering.
- Interactions: Users can click on stars to "zoom in" and reveal specific sections, such as the SU(5) math or radar scattering metrics.
- Animations: Smooth transitions between sections, with stars "exploding" into detailed views and fading back into the galaxy when deselected.
- Color Shifts: The map will subtly shift colors based on the time of day, creating a living, breathing interface.
- Micro-Interactions: Hovering over stars will display tooltips with brief descriptions of the features they represent.
This bold and eccentric design will make the dashboard instantly fascinating, leaving a lasting impression on users.
7. Non-Functional Requirements
- Performance: The dashboard must load within 3 seconds on standard broadband connections.
- Scalability: The system should support up to 100 concurrent users without performance degradation.
- Accessibility: The interface must comply with WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards.
- Security: All data transmissions must be encrypted using HTTPS.
