Over a two-month period, contributed to the aurora-multiphysics/platypus repository by developing and refining features for finite element simulations in C++. Focused on enhancing the MFEM-based elasticity workflow, the work included updating documentation to clarify mathematical formulations and improving API clarity for boundary conditions. Implemented new boundary condition classes for vector fields, introduced a grad-div domain integrator, and integrated a Hypre ADS preconditioner to accelerate solver performance with Raviart-Thomas elements. Emphasized code maintainability through removal of obsolete components, robust null pointer checks, and comprehensive testing, supporting long-term stability and facilitating onboarding for scientific computing and high-performance applications.
November 2024 performance summary for aurora-multiphysics/platypus focused on delivering essential vector field boundary handling and grad-div support to improve accuracy, stability, and solver performance in incompressible flow simulations (H(div) and Raviart-Thomas elements). Implementations include a boundary-condition class for normal components with full documentation and grid-function projection, and a dedicated grad-div workflow with a new domain integrator, a Hypre ADS preconditioner, and corresponding tests.
