Multiscale modelling with SfePy

Robert Cimrman

abstrakt:

SfePy is an open source finite element analysis software written primarily
in Python programming language, see http://sfepy.kme.zcu/cz. It was designed
to provide a flexible general finite element modeling tool easily adaptable
to solve problems defined in terms of PDEs systems. A variety of problems
treated by SfePy is demonstrated on multiscale modeling examples, originating
from the description of strongly heterogeneous media. These comprise, for example,
fluid saturated porous media, and phononic materials. The examples are complemented
with general information on SfePy; the choice of the Python is discussed as well
as other tools required to install or use the software.
