Dear, 
I want to know how the unit system should be put in the input3d file of falling_sphere in ConstraintIB, I am simulating a sphere falling using that example. 
The variables are radius, viscosity, densities and gravity and domain size. Please clarify.

Thank You,
Sudheer Kumar Bhalothia

IBAMR generally leaves the choice of units up to the modeler — which means that you will need to ensure that all dimensional quantities have consistent units.

Thank You,
