May 2025 monthly summary for gyselax/gyselalibxx focusing on interface derivatives for multi-patch geometries. Delivered a new Derivative Operator enabling accurate calculation of derivatives at interfaces across diverse interpolation types and mesh configurations. Implemented and tested a dedicated SingleInterfaceDerivativesCalculator with broad support for Hermite boundary conditions, uniform/non-uniform meshes, and both exact and approximate formulations. Prepared for multiple patch connections (E|E, E|W, W|E, W|W, E|S) with corresponding unit tests and documentation. The work aligns with ongoing efforts to improve numerical accuracy and stability in multi-patch simulations, supporting downstream physics, meshing, and gradient-based workflows. Key MR: gysela-developpers/gyselalibxx!869; co-authored-by: Emily Bourne.
