A Survey of Open Source Multiphysics Frameworks in Engineering
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a systematic survey of open source multiphysics frameworks in the engineering domains. These domains share many commonalities despite the diverse application areas. A thorough search for the available frameworks with both academic and industrial origins has revealed numerous candidates. Considering key characteristics such as project size, maturity and visibility, we selected Elmer, OpenFOAM and Salome for a detailed analysis. All the public documentation for these tools has been manually collected and inspected. Based on the analysis, we built a feature model for multiphysics in engineering, which captures the commonalities and variability in the domain. We in turn validated the resulting model via two other tools; Kratos by manual inspection, and OOFEM by means of expert validation by domain experts.

Experiences from Software Engineering of Large Scale AMR Multiphysics Code Frameworks
Among the present generation of multiphysics HPC simulation codes there are many that are built upon general infrastructural frameworks. This is especially true of the codes that make use of structured adaptive mesh refinement (SAMR) because of unique demands placed on the housekeeping aspects of the code. They have varying degrees of abstractions between the infrastructure such as mesh managem...
