Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2002-06-21 Severity: wishlist * Package name : gerris Version : 0.1.0 Upstream Author : Stéphane Popinet, all arround cool coder * URL : http://gfs.sf.net/ * License : GPL Description : Gerris Flow Solver
Gerris is an Open Source Free Software library for the solution of the partial differential equations describing fluid flow. The source code is available free of charge under the Free Software GPL license. Gerris is supported by NIWA (National Institute of Water and Atmospheric research) and by the Marsden Fund of the Royal Society of New Zealand. The code is written entirely in C and uses both the GLib Library and the GTS Library for geometrical functions and object-oriented programming. A brief summary of its main (current) features: * The same code base can be compiled either with 2D or 3D support. * Quadtree-based (Octree in 3D) spatial discretisation with automatic (and possibly dynamic) local refinement. * Multigrid Poisson solver. * Second-order Godunov type advection scheme. * Solves the time-dependent incompressible Euler equations. * Support for complex solid boundaries (automatic locally-refined mesh generation). * Flexible object-oriented specification of boundary conditions. * Portable parallel support using the MPI library. -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux ysabell 2.4.18-xfs #1 Mon May 6 10:13:44 CEST 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_US -- no debconf information -- Marcelo | "Woof.
