Open Source Finite Element Software for Multiphysical Problems
Elmer is an open source multiphysical simulation software developed by CSC - IT Center for Science (CSC). Elmer development was started 1995 in collaboration with Finnish Universities, research institutes and industry.
Elmer includes physical models of fluid dynamics, structural mechanics, electromagnetics, heat transfer and acoustics, for example. These are described by partial differential equations which Elmer solves by the Finite Element Method (FEM).
These pages are intended to give information on the Elmer software and to improve the information transfer in the Elmer community.
