Basix
Basix is a finite element definition and tabulation runtime library. Basix allows users to:
- evaluate finite element basis functions and their derivatives at a set of points;
- access geometric and topological information about reference cells;
- apply push forward and pull back operations to map data between a reference cell and a physical cell;
- permute and transform DOFs to allow higher-order elements to be use on arbitrary meshes; and
- interpolate into and between finite element spaces.
Basix includes a range of built-in elements, and also allows the user to define their own custom elements.
Basix is one of the components of FEniCSx, alongside UFL, FFCx, and DOLFINx.
