deal.II coupling using preCICE

[David Schneider]

Dear deal.II users,

preCICE now supoorts an example of of an adapter for a deal.II coupling, making multi-physics simulations with deal.II and other solvers very easy.

What is preCICE?

preCICE is a free coupling library for partitioned multi-physics simulations on massively parallel systems. This includes several features such as data mapping methods, parallel peer-to-peer communication, sophisticated coupling algorithms and many more. More details are available on the preCICE webpage and the preCICE wiki on GitHub.

Hence, preCICE allows to couple existing software and run partitioned multi-physics simulations in an efficient way. We built the deal.II adapter to provide an example of coupling a deal.II code with preCICE and give users an easy integration of preCICE in their own deal.II projects. You may find all the details in the deal.II adapter wiki.

Feel free to contact us for any questions.

Happy coupling,
the preCICE team

Ah, this is very nice! On a personal level, it fills me with great
satisfaction that my hometown university (Stuttgart, Germany) finds use for
our software ;-)

Two questions:
* We link to applications that build on deal.II under the "Applications" tab
at the top right of https://dealii.org/ . Should we link to preCICE as well?
* Are there any publications that use this coupling and that we could list at
https://dealii.org/publications.html

Best
Wolfgang

Glad to hear that, thanks for your nice response!

 We would be very happy about a linking. Thanks in advance.

The recent post/project origanted from a student project without a thesis. But there have been previous student theses at the University of Siegen, which used deal.II and preCICE. Unfortunately, they are not online available. I attached BibTex files of both, in case you would like to list them anyway. The current state of our project is -in terms of deal.II- very basic and there might be a thesis in the future dealing with an extension. We will let you know about completed thesis in this area.

Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland!

Great. Do you want me to link to https://www.precice.org or to anything more
deal.II-related on your sub-pages? Whatever URL you give me I'll link to.

Yes, we take them all. Thanks for the bib entries, I've added them to the list
(as a pull request for now, but they will eventually show up on the website as
well).

Much appreciated. Keeping this list as complete as possible is important to us!

Thanks

 https://www.precice.org would be great. Soon, we will have deal.II more obvious in our coupled codes section on the website, so that people easily find the relation to deal.II.

Perfect. Many thanks for your efforts!

It's now online. Let me know if you ever want this link to change!
