Hello everyone,
I am currently doing a Master's in Simulation Engineering, and I will start working on my thesis next semester. For my thesis, I need to learn a finite element method (FEM) library, mainly for solid mechanics applications. My department mainly uses Julia Ferrite, but I am considering learning deal.II instead because I think it could be more useful in the long term, especially if I decide to pursue a PhD later. The challenge is that if I choose deal.II, I will probably have to learn and implement things mostly on my own, since there is no direct support in my department for it. I would appreciate advice from people who have experience with deal.II. What would be the most effective and efficient way to start learning it? I have a relatively short timeline (around 4 months), because my goal is to become comfortable enough with the library to implement a locking-free scheme for a complex material model in solid mechanics. Thank you in advance for your suggestions. -- The deal.II project is located at http://www.dealii.org/ For mailing list/forum options, see https://groups.google.com/d/forum/dealii?hl=en --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "deal.II User Group" group.
