Earlier PolyFEM announcements

These entries are preserved from the former homepage news section. They are historical and are not necessarily recent.

  • New “selection” interface to set boundary conditions and body ids.
  • Added support for multi-material simulations.
  • PolyFEM supports time-dependent fluid simulations!
  • PolyFEM supports contacts using the IPC Toolkit.
  • We support FEBio (*.feb) files.
  • We finally extracted the solvers from PolyFEM. You can now use the wrappers independently, check the PolySolve repo.
  • PolyFEM meshplot, igl and wildmeshing are presented at a Eurographics course.
  • Bindings v0.5.2 with a new more pythonic interface, support for functions of the right-hand side and exact solution.
  • PolyFEM is being used in biology! Check the paper or the project page!
  • PolyFEM meshplot, igl and wildmeshing are presented at a SIGGRAPH course (07/30/2019).
  • PolyFEM is now triangle and tetgen free. Stay tuned for the release of v0.5 in python with a new interface to high-order meshes and meshplot for the fast 3D plots!
  • PolyFEM has been used in “A Large Scale Comparison of Tetrahedral and Hexahedral Elements for Finite Element Analysis”! Check the interactive plots!
  • PolyFEM now supports high-order geometric maps! Check the SIGGRAPH paper “TriWild: Robust Triangulation with Curve Constraints” for more details!
  • PolyFEM has a python interface!
  • PolyFEM can do adaptive a priori \(p\)-refinement! Check the SIGGRAPH paper “Decoupling Simulation Accuracy from Mesh Quality” for more details!
