ITP: Elmer -- Finite element software for multiphysics problems



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

Package name: elmerfem
Version: 5.4.1

Elmer is an open source mutiphysics simulation package developed by CSC
in collaboration with Finnish universities, research institutes and
industry.  It includes physical models of fluid dynamics, structural
mechanics, electromagnetics, heat transfer and acoustics, for example.
These are described by partial differential equations which Elmer solves
by the Finite Element Method (FEM).

Elmer uses METIS (or its free counterpart Scotch) for mesh partitioning,
and (P)ARPACK, UMFPACK, BLAS/LAPACK and hypre to solve the sparse linear
systems resulting from FEM discretization.  It includes pre- and
post-processors, and several examples illustrating simulation of various
physical phenomena.
