Abstract

Presentation for IDA Mechanical (https: //ida. dk/en/arrangementer-og-kurser/arrangementer/open-source-simulation-tools-opportunities-and-limitations-363941) Link to code used in live demoLink to FEniCS webpageLink to FEniCS user forum For people that want to know how to use DOLFINx, I would go through material in this order: 1. DOLFINx tutorial: https: //jsdokken. com/dolfinx-tutorial/2. Mechanical tours in DOLFINx: https: //bleyerj. github. io/comet-fenicsx/3. Shell models in DOLFINx: https: //fenics-shells. github. io/fenicsx-shells/4. MultiPointConstraints in DOLFINx: https: //jsdokken. com/dolfinxₘpc/ and https: //github. com/jorgensd/dolfinxₘpc5. Workshop notes on how DOLFINx works (https: //jsdokken. com/FEniCS-workshop) 6. Non-conforming 3D-1D coupling: https: //scientificcomputing. github. io/fenicsxᵢi7. Toolbox with convenience tools on top of FEniCS: https: //scientificcomputing. github. io/scifem8. Further toolbox on top of FEniCS: https: //dolfiny. uni. lu/
