Nothing particularly tricky about the FVM interface so long as you are (i) cell centered and (ii) interested only in nearest face neighbors. In that sense it is a natural subset of the DG support. If you want a node centered scheme with dual-mesh control volumes there will be many tricks - I wo

Thanks you very much Roy, For periodic BC that's enough for me. For FVM computations do we have a clean interface? or it is done with tricks? I guess this would be the more time consuming part Regards, Ali -- Keep Your

Hi, I'm looking for a flexible computational environment, currently my needs right now are: 1- Support for P1isoP2 elements, P0,P1,P2 and Q0,Q1,Q2 and Q0isoQ2 2- Support for discontinuous elements P1disc, Q1disc 3- Support for an Uzawa solver (stokes problem) 4- Periodic Boundary Conditions 5-
