What does Davout do?

Workhorse for a research project that encompasses finite element analysis, machine learning, and multiscale analysis. Additionally, a set of tools is provided.

This package contains extensive implementation of hyperelastic problems in finite strains using FEniCS and GMSH for mesh generation. A consistent and general purpose implementation of ANN models using tensorflow is also available.

This suite performs and the corresponding module:

Geometry and mesh generation ---------------------------------------------------------> CuboidGmsh
Finite element analysis ----------------------------------------------------------------------> MultiMech
ANN models definition and training ----------------------------------------------------> DeepMech
Post-processing automation using ParaView ---------------------------------------> GraphUtilities
Generation of figures, collages, and slides using own graphical tools ----> GraphUtilities
LaTeX writing and formating using an ensemble of commands -------------> LaTeXUtilities

Philosophy and aims

Davout aims to be a unified software to accompany researchers in computational mechanics. Davout is inspired by a profound love for python and open software.

Davout stands on the shoulders of other massively mighty python packages, such as FEniCS, TensorFlow, GMSH, ParaView, and matplotlib.

Installation using pip

pip install Davout

Or for a special dev version (123 for example). Check the pyproject.toml file to consult the latest version at the line 'version = "0.1.1.dev123"':

pip install Davout==0.1.1.dev123

Installation using installer file

Download the zip file, unzip it and move it to a suitable directory. Open the Davout folder, where setup.py is located. Open this path in terminal (using a virtual environment) and run the following command

python davout_installer.py

Installation using command

Download the repository, unzip the file, put it in a suitable place for you. Activate a python virtual environment (follow instruction in the booklet 1. to create a virtual environment if you don't have one), go into the directory where the files are located through the virtual environment terminal. Then, type in terminal (instead of python you might need to explicitely type in the version, like python3):

python setup.py bdist_wheel sdist

pip install .

To test the installation:

python

import Davout
