Welcome to FEDEM! - Finite Element Dynamics in Elastic Mechanisms.
This project contains (in the src folder)
the Fortran source code of the FEDEM solver modules.
In addition, the PythonAPI folder contains the source code of
the python package fedempy, which enables the use of python to control
execution of the FE Part Reducer and Dynamics Solver,
as well as creating new models and/or editing existing ones by scripting.
This project also uses elements from the fedem-foundation project, which is consumed as a submodule by this repository. It also uses the SAM library.
The FEDEM GUI application, which also can be used to control the solvers and to post-process their results, is maintained in a parallel project fedem-gui.
Refer to our web page openfedem.org for overall information on the FEDEM project.
See BUILD.md for detailed information on building and testing. Notice the regression tests for the Dynamics Solver are maintained in a separate repository fedem-solver-tests, which also is consumed as a submodule by this repository. Therefore, make sure you get all submodules resolved when cloning this repository, e.g.:
$ git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:openfedem/fedem-solvers.git
