MeshCore.jl
Small package for operating on the topology of meshes for the Finite Element Methods (FEM). All essential topological incidence relations are provided: see the guide in documentation. The library provides efficient storage in static arrays for speed of access.
Usage
This release is for Julia 1.6.
The package is registered: doing
]add MeshCore
using MeshCore
is enough.
The user can either use/import individual functions from MeshCore like so:
using MeshCore: nrelations, nentities
or all exported symbols maybe made available in the user's context as
using MeshCore.Exports
Using the library by itself is certainly possible. If you wish for a more comprehensive mesh-handling package, check out MeshSteward.jl.
Learning
Please refer to the tutorials in the package
MeshTutor.jl.
Publications
A paper was accepted to the Journal Advances in Engineering Software in April 2021. The paper is available in final draft form in the docs/src/concepts folder.
The package PaperMeshTopo gives an example of the construction of a complex (full one-level) topological representation of a tetrahedral mesh.
