DUNE-VEM
[[TOC]]
DUNE-VEM is a Distributed and Unified Numerics Environment module which provides implementation of a range of virtual element spaces. It is based on the interfaces defined in DUNE-FEM. In addition to the C++ implementation and extensive Python interface is provided.
If you need help, please ask on our mailinglist. Bugs can also be submitted to the DUNE-VEM bugtracker instead.
Paper
A detailed description of the VEM implementation is given in our paper A framework for implementing general virtual element spaces. Please cite this paper, if you find this module useful for your research.
The scripts to reproduce the numerical examples provided in the paper are provided in the dune-vem-paper repository. These were based on the 2.9.0 version of DUNE. Versions of these scripts updated to match the current versions together with some new ones are included in this repository and are part of the Python package uploaded to PyPi. To obtain the current versions of these scripts after installation of the DUNE-VEM Python package you can run
python -m dune.vem
which places the scripts into the folder vem_tutorial.
Tutorial
The more general DUNE-FEM tutorial includes a number of further examples showcasing the DUNE-VEM module and provides an overview of DUNE.
General installation instructions
Using pip
DUNE-VEM can be installed using the Package Index of Python (pip).
