Hi Matt,

     Is this web page something you were thinking about:

http://people.cst.cmich.edu/baxte1ma/fcst/now/ua/4pan_pet/4pan_pet.html

In the IDV, we do have the existing formula to do the Lapalacian and Abs vort 
adv , but you need to provide the equation for other two terms.

I can help you to create and add the formula once we know what to do.
