Hi,

I'm a researcher at the CNRS (Paris). My nickname in GitHub is dangars (I 
contributed with a couple of pull requests)

I work in optomechanics/phononics. I've been using deal.ii for 6 months and 
it works great! I developed a model of the elastic wave equation in 2D that 
uses PMLs.

I'm preparing a contribution of a new step tutorial of the elastic wave 
equation with PMLs in 3D to GitHub/dealii. This will be useful for the 
phononics and optomechanics communities.

The separation real/imag works very well with PMLs.

The elastic/PML matrix with real/imag separation is big. If I use complex 
numbers the matrix will be compact and will fit in one line (much better 
for a step tutorial)

What is the status of complex valued calculations? Is it ready to solve a 
differential equations? Is there a performance penalty with complex numbers 
vs separate real/imag parts?

According to this, it seems to be almost ready:

Thanks,
