Hello Dr. Bangerth, Thank you for your response and clearing up those questions. I am continually going through steps 8, 20, and 21. I ma currently exploring 2 directions, Jean-Paul linear elastic direction and the Mixed-Laplace direction. From what I can tell, modeling the anisotropic materia

Hello Jean-Paul, Thank you for the links and resources. I am going through them now. I am not very familiar with linear elastic. I was able to better understand the step-20 and how it applies to electrostatics because I was able to relate the equations to their electrostatic equivalents. I hav

Dear Chucui, The standard Triangulation class has a save function , so the methodology shown in those examples can likely be applied exactly to the serial case. Best, Jean-Paul > On 06 Nov

Dear Philip, Let me offer an alternative to what Wolfgang has suggested. I don’t think that it is necessary to use a mixed formulation to introduce material anisotropy into your problem. If you go back to the derivation in our previous discussion, there was this line: (6) div [\epsilon_{0} \ep
