Dear Brunetto,
To my knowledge, there is no documentation on how to pass from the
equations to the code.
However, if you take all equations from the Springel papers (2002,2005)
and cross combine with
the code (for example the hydro_evaluate routine if you want to
understand the sph equations of motions),
its quite easy to understand how the code works.
