GetFem++

GetFem++

GetFEM++ is an open source library based on collaborative development. It aims to offer a framework for solving potentially coupled systems of linear and nonlinear partial differential equations with the finite element method.

SuperLU is a general purpose library for the direct solution of large, sparse, nonsymmetric systems of linear equations on high performance machines.

Finite Element Method-Mild Slope Equation (FemMse)

  • A generic FEM code (Tsai and Chou, 2015) is implemented for solving the MSE-type models of FemMse. Furthermore, quartic elements are adopted in the FEM numerical solution procedures.

  • The present finite element model is generic. To be more clear, template parameters are implemented in the present model, such as the mild-slope equation type, bathymetry, dimensionality and others.
  • We compare our result (CCMS) with the EMM (Tsai et al., 2011) and the IEM (Porter and Porter, 2000).
