A lightweight 2D finite element algorithm for linear domains.
Malcolm D. Forbes Je Park
Created for George Mason University’s Introduction to Finite Element Method elective (i.e., course number ME 499-005, Spring 2017).
2DFEM is a two-dimensional finite element algorithm written in the MATLAB language, and uses P.O. Persson’s simple mesh generator. Solves linear domain problems with adaptive meshing in heat transfer, fluid flow, and stress-strain problems.
Based upon earlier work on a one-dimensional paper concieved of in the first two months, which can be read here. The final project presentation is given here, while the whitepaper is archived here.
2DFEM is a GNU project, and may be used in other projects as long as appropriate attribution is cited to the developers: Malcolm D. Forbes and Je Park. Thank you and happy meshing!
