FEniCS

A new version of DOLFIN has been released. The new version adds integration with VMTK (Vascular Modeling Toolkit), an extended XML mesh format including boundary indicators, support for dynamically attaching data to meshes, support for Epetra/Trilinos solvers, uniform handling of linear solvers for all backends (PETSc, Epetra, uBLAS), and a new option for optimizing just-in-time compilation of variational forms.

A new version of FFC has been released. The new version improves the handling of integrals over subdomains and adds an in-memory cache for speeding up repeated JIT compiling of the same form.

Release with many new examples demonstrating the use of SFC and Dolfin.

Various new examples with swiginac and sympy implemented. Bug fix on 64bit. Removed director flag by default.

A new version of DOLFIN has been released. With this release, DOLFIN moves to a new build system, replacing the old Autotools build system with a new Scons-based build system. Other changes include improved interfaces for linear algebra, both in C++ and Python, now also including interfaces to Trilinos (Epetra) in addition to existing interfaces for PETSc and uBLAS. In addition, plotting has been improved, finite element solutions may be evaluated efficiently in arbitrary points (using GTS), and boundary meshes are positively oriented with respect to outward facets normals. Various minor improvements and bug fixes have also been made.
