Hi, I have just come around an interesting piece of software: http://mathema.tician.de/software/meshpy Has anybody some experience with it? r.

dft.c

Robert, Ondrej, how about f2c to turn dft.f into dft.c you just need f2c.h. I just edited the .f file, moved the integer declaration to above the "data" statement and ran f2c. gcc -o dft.so --shared -fPIC dft.c created the .so file. shroedinger.py still seems to work. br. -osman

sfepy 0.5 tests on 64 bit ubuntu
by osman 06 Sep '08

06 Sep '08

Hi Robert, Ondrej, Finally I was able to re-build numpy/scipy and tried the new version of sfepy. Even during building of scipy, whenever a fortran or f2py based shared lib to be built, I need to manually insert "-shared" to the command (that is after it fails to build an executable! . Same with sfepy physics module. But tests did run and two failed : ... tests/test_lcbc_2d.py --- test_linear_rigid_body_bc: failed! tests/test_lcbc_3d.py --- test_linear_rigid_body_bc: failed! ... expected? Regards, -osman

ANN: SfePy-00.50.00
by Robert Cimrman 02 Sep '08

02 Sep '08

I am pleased announce the release of SfePy 00.50.00. SfePy is a finite element analysis software in Python, based primarily on Numpy and SciPy. Mailing lists, issue tracking, mercurial repository: http://sfepy.org Home page: http://sfepy.kme.zcu.cz People who contributed to this release: Ondrej Certik, Ryan Krauss, Vladimir Lukes. Major improvements: - finite strain elasticity: neo-Hookean, Mooney-Rivlin materials in the total Lagrangian (TL) formulation - solving problems in complex numbers - generalized equations to allow linear combination of terms - run-time type of state term arguments - refactoring to follow Python coding style guidelines - new terms For more information on this release, see http://sfepy.googlecode.com/svn/web/releases/005000_RELEASE_NOTES.txt Best regards, Robert Cimrman

large deformations
by Robert Cimrman 01 Sep '08

01 Sep '08

Hi all, and Ryan in particular, I have started implementing large deformations into the code. Nothing is finished yet, but I have already some proof-of-concept. I will commit relatively soon (i.e. after my holidays) a patch adding the hyperelastic neo-Hookean material. Ultimately, I would like to have in SfePy all the functionality I had in its predecessor (a matlab code called mafest1), but it is a long term goal, as it was more a one-purpose tool than a general FE system. All that the old code can do is nicely summarized in my thesis, that you can find at http://ui505p06-mbs.ntc.zcu.cz/sfe/RobertCimrman at the bottom (thesis.pdf). Ryan, try to look in particular at Section 2.1.2 (TL formulation), Chapter 3 (FE discretization in TL context) and Chapter 6 (FE discretization in a linear problem context), as it may provide you some insight. Appendix A might be also interesting, as the usual constitutive (stress-strain) relations are summarized there, e.g. the neo-Hookean one. r.

make sfepy usable a'la mathematica using sympy
by Ondrej Certik 01 Sep '08

01 Sep '08

Hi, I'd like to be able to do these things with sfepy+sympy together: http://reference.wolfram.com/mathematica/tutorial/NDSolvePDE.html I.e. really just specify the equation in sympy and sfepy should be clever enough to solve it correctly, or say why it cannot solve it. Ondrej
