mlhp 0.1.3

A work-in-progress finite element library.

About

Mlhp is a C++ library with python bindings that implements multi-level hp- and other finite element methods efficiently also for dimensions > 3. The project is still very much work in progress and therefore does not have an extensive documentation.

Submodules

The header-only libraries pybind11, Catch2, and vtu11 are included as git submodules. To clone them recursively, use:

git clone --recursive https://gitlab.com/hpfem/code/mlhp.git

Getting started

• Compiler and platform support
• Setting up an executable that uses mlhp.
• Core class structure
• Doxygen documentation
