Have ALE with Your PDEs

Arbitrary LaGrange/Eulerian--ALE--moving meshes new to version 5

Arbitrary LaGrange/Eulerian--ALE--moving meshes new to version 5

By DE Editors

FlexPDE 5 from PDE Solutions (Antioch, CA) is an extensive rewrite of the FlexPDE application. Key enhancements include Arbitrary LaGrange/Eulerian (ALE) moving meshes and optional one-dimensional geometry among other improvements.

 

 

FlexPDE 5 lets you type in your partial differential equations, add a description of the problem domain, and instantly convert this problem specification into a sophisticated finite element model. Version 5 also offers automatic mesh construction, unlimited equation complexity, an unlimited number of simultaneous equations, a nonlinear equation solver,  dynamic timestep control, export to TecPlot or VisIt for visualizations and more.

FlexPDE is a self-contained processing system that analyzes your problem description; symbolically forms Galerkin finite element integrals,  derivatives, and dependencies; builds a coupling matrix and solves it;  and plots the results.

It requires no additional software, nor do you have to buy modules to address new fields of study. Rather than pass a translation on to some other package for processing, FlexPDE is often the package other applications call for processing.

FLEXPDE runs under Windows, Linux, and Mac OS/X environments. For complete details, click here.
