Thanks for your work, I have discovered your channel a few days ago and I regret I didn't find it a few months ago. However, it is still amazing. You do amazing job and please keep going. Subscription made and obviously likes on all movies from me side!
thanks again for a nice summary of the most popular FEM/FVM based PDE solvers. So many toys to play with :-) I think you have to learn a few so you get the general idea, then pick one that suits best the problem you need to solve. CAD (like freeCAD, Salome), mesh generation (gmsh, Salome), then for the problem definition/pde a lot of choices. Post processing Salome/paraview not a lot to choose from. SOFA I had installed and run some examples, seems like a multi physics simulation with a lot of plugins (like FEM). We need more general quad/hex meshers but people have been working on that for quite a few years and still only commercial programs are available (Cubit). Or maybe just forget the mesh and go meshfree !
thank you for this complete comment. I think your comment is a nice wrap up of what I wanted to say in this series :). you are very right. I think there is a big room for improvement in open-source FE when it comes to quad/hex meshes, in both the meshing tools and the solvers.
Very nice video. I'm really used to work with FEniCS, and since I most use it for blood flow, heart and biomechanics I'll check the FEBio. About the Firedrake, this notation about dx(group) or ds(group) for easily defining subdomains and part of boundary was availible for FEniCS in the earliest versions, however, since they changed, probabily thay have found some issue with this kind of definition.
Prepomax is a more traditional style user interface for Calculix. It is being developed very actively and has great tutorials on RUclips. I recommend it a lot for traditional solid mechanics and heat transfer problems.l, unfortunately it is only available on windows although I was successful running it on wine in Linux.
thanks for sharing this! I didn't know about it. it looks very interesting and can be quite useful for Windows users to have a sophisticated GUI for Calculix.
Many thanks for your excellent work. Do you know a playlist of similar quality like yours for electromagnetic wave problems? I am no scientist but I look for a method to induce suitable back-mutations since 30 years. MoFEM seems to be useful. The main sentence is found in Tiplers physics that the particles that form are determined by wavepackages. Now I need solvers that allow to calculate back from spektrums to wavepackages. Has someone an idea or resources for that task? Thank you.

wow, it's my pleasure that you liked the videos :))

I like your channel very much.
People like you are the ones who keep the planet turning, spinning and moving.
@@ajarivas72 thank you for your kind words :))
Awesome video! Thank you! Very informative!
Glad you enjoyed it!

@@TuxRiders i second this. Prepomax is very usable, and it allows for high productivity, making it well for my work as a stress engineer
@@Panvil very cool :)

Thank you for your kind words. Unfortunately I don't know about your problem and any recommended material for it. Sorry.
