Announcement of deal.II 3.0

+ +

+Version 3.0 of the deal.II object-oriented finite element library is +available on the deal.II home-page at +

+ + http://gaia.iwr.uni-heidelberg.de/~deal + +

+ +

+deal.II is a C++ program library targeted at adaptive finite elements +and error estimation. It uses state-of-the-art programming techniques +of the C++ programming language to offer you a modern interface to the +complex data structures and algorithms required for adaptivity and +enables you to use a variety of finite elements in one, two, and three +space dimensions, as well as support for time-dependent problems. +

+ +

+The library is written for research purposes and offers many features: +

Support for one, two, and three space dimensions, using a unified + interface that enables writing programs almost dimension independent.
+ +
Handling of locally refined grids, including different adaptive + refinement strategies based on local error indicators and error + estimators.
+ +
Support for a variety of finite elements, including Lagrange + elements of order one through four, and discontinuous elements.
+ +
Extensive documentation: all documentation is available online in a + logical tree structure to allow fast access to the information you + need. If printed it comprises about 200 pages of tutorials, several + reports, and far more than 1,000 pages of programming interface + documentation with explanations of all classes, functions, and + variables.
+ +
Modern software techniques that make access to the complex data + structures and algorithms as transparent as possible. The use of + object oriented programming allows for program structures similar to + the structures in mathematical analysis.
+ +
Fast algorithms that enable you to solve problems with up to several + millions of degrees of freedom quickly. As opposed to programming + symbolic algebra packages the penalty for readability is low.
+ +
Support for several output formats, including some common formats + for visualization of scientific data.
+ +
Support for a variety of computer platforms, including multi- + processor machines.
+ +
Free source code under an Open Source license, and the invitation to + contribute to further development of the library.
