FEniCS Project
From The FEniCS project
FEniCS is free software for automated solution of differential equations. We provide software tools for working with computational meshes, finite element variational formulations of PDEs, ODE solvers and linear algebra.
To get started, visit the Gallery or take the Tutorial.
Events
- June 11-12 2009: The FEniCS '09 Workshop will be hosted by the Center for Biomedical Computing at Simula Research Laboratory in Oslo.
Projects
FEniCS is organized as a collection of projects/components, which may be categorized into core components (libraries and interfaces) and applications (application-oriented codes and solvers).

Vision
The vision of FEniCS is to set a new standard in Computational Mathematical Modeling (CMM), which is the Automation of CMM (ACMM), towards the goals of generality, efficiency, and simplicity, concerning mathematical methodology, implementation, and application.
Computational Mathematical Modeling is the modern manifestation of the basic principle of science: formulating mathematical equations (modeling) and solving equations (computation), with the equations usually taking the form of differential/integral equations.
Partners
FEniCS is a joint project between University of Chicago, Argonne National Laboratory, Delft University of Technology, Royal Institute of Technology KTH, Simula Research Laboratory, Texas Tech University, and University of Cambridge (in order of appearance).
