Python Multiphysics Simulations with FEniCS and FEATool
The FEniCS Project is a popular and open-source finite element analysis (FEA) framework for mathematical modeling and physics simulations with the Python programming language. In contrast to more specialized solvers, such as OpenFOAM and SU2 Code for computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and CalculiX and Code Aster for …
Implementing Custom and User Defined Finite Element Shape and Basis Functions
FEATool has been designed with flexibility and user customization in mind allowing for solving custom equations, calling external solvers, grid generators, and post processing tools, and allowing for both MATLAB m-script as well as GUI based modeling. This post shows how to easily define custom finite element shape …
