Graduate courses

These courses have been taught to a mixed public of civil, mechanical and applied mathematics students. The underlying idea is that the finite element method is the ideal field to convey a theoretical background to the engineers and to introduce true applications to the mathematicians.

• An introduction to the finite element method. A course based on the book : The finite element method : an Introduction, by Oden, Becker and Carey (Prentice Hall).
• An introduction to continuum mechanics. Based on the books : An Introduction to Continuum Mechanics by Morton E. Gurtin (Academic Press) and An Introduction to the theory of Elasticity by R.J. Atkin and N. Fox (Longman Group Limited, London, 1980)
• Computational Linear Algebra. Introducing various linear algebra algorithms with emphasis on computer exercises. Based on the book : Matrix Computation for Engineers and Scientists, by A. Jennings (John Wiley & Sons, 1978)

Students

• Cedric A. Bravo : Implement two- and three dimensional adaptive h-p algorithms in parallel
• Jorge Diaz Calle : Using wavelet techniques for governing adaptive algorithms in h-p adaptive finite element methods
• Arlenes Silvino da Silva : Developing adaptive algorithms for multi phase imiscible flow through porous media
• Gustavo Longhin : Implementation of an object oriented frontal solver

Current Projects

TMatrix

Development of an object oriented matrix library. This library contains a variety of storage patterns of matrix objects and allows the user to submit his own types with a minimal effort. A large range of direct and iterative solvers have been implemented

OOPAR

Development of an object oriented environment for the development of parallel software

PZ

Development of an object oriented environment for the development of finite element software.

MadPack 6

Development of an object oriented framework for developing multigrid software. PZ uses Madpack 6 to implement the multigrid iterative algorithm
