Parametric FEM simulations using JuliaFEM and Gmsh

Published at September 17, 2019 ·  12 min read

The JuliaFEM project develops open-source software for reliable, scalable, distributed Finite Element Method. Gmsh is an open-source 3D finite element mesh generator with a built-in CAD engine and post-processor. In this blog post, I will demonstrate how to create a simple geometry, mesh it using Gmsh Julia API and transfer the mesh after that to a format JuliaFEM understands. Because the mesh is created programmatically, it is possible to parametrize to make an automatic workflow....
