deal.II - a name that originally meant to indicate that it is the successor to
|
|
the Differential Equations Analysis Library - is a C++ program library targeted
|
|
at the computational solution of partial differential equations using adaptive
|
|
finite elements. It uses state-of-the-art programming techniques to offer you a
|
|
modern interface to the complex data structures and algorithms required.
|
|
|
|
The main aim of deal.II is to enable rapid development of modern finite element
|
|
codes, using among other aspects adaptive meshes and a wide array of tools
|
|
classes often used in finite element program. Writing such programs is a
|
|
non-trivial task, and successful programs tend to become very large and complex.
|
|
We believe that this is best done using a program library that takes care of the
|
|
details of grid handling and refinement, handling of degrees of freedom, input
|
|
of meshes and output of results in graphics formats, and the like. Likewise,
|
|
support for several space dimensions at once is included in a way such that
|
|
programs can be written independent of the space dimension without unreasonable
|
|
penalties on run-time and memory consumption.
|
|
|
|
deal.II is widely used in many academic and commercial projects. For its
|
|
creation, its principal authors have received the 2007 J. H. Wilkinson Prize for
|
|
Numerical Software. It is also part of the industry standard SPEC CPU 2006 and
|
|
SPEC CPU 2017 benchmark suites used to determine the speed of computers and
|
|
compilers.
