Short description
An object oriented Matlab library for (adaptive) finite element analysis. Advantages:
- Easy to use and modify
- Covers a wide range of equations
- Efficient implementation of general polynomial orders
- A lot of built-in convenience functions
Installation
To get started, run setup.m in the root folder. This adds everything to the
path and compiles .mex files if necessary.
Note that, at least, Matlab version R2022a is required.
First steps
There are some examples that show the features of this package in the
examples/ directory. These are simple scripts, so they can be executed either
from the command window or by running it from the editor.
Modifications
To allow for reliable modifications, a comprehensive test suite is shipped with the package. These tests use the matlab.unittest framework and can be run by one of the following commands:
% automatically run all unit-tests
runtests('tests/')
% automatically run all unit-tests and all examples
runtests('tests/', 'IncludeSubfolders', true)
% run tests and perform code coverage analysis
runtests('tests/', ['IncludeSubfolders', true,] 'ReportCoverageFor', 'lib/')Citation
