This is the public repository for thermal_iwf. thermal_iwf is the software accompanying the paper "Contemporary Meshfree Methods for Three Dimensional Heat Conduction Problems" published by Springer Nature in Archives of Computational Methods in Engineering. thermal_iwf contains a wide array of meshless algorithms for approxmation of the laplacian in general and the solution of heat conduction problems in particlar. Namely:
- SPH
- SPH w/ Brookshaw Approximation
- CSPM
- RKPM
- PSE
- A new scheme presented by Fatehi et al. in the work "Fatehi, R., & Manzari, M. T. (2011). Error estimation in smoothed particle hydrodynamics and a new scheme for second derivatives. Computers and Mathematics with Applications, 61(2), 482–498"
thermal_iwf is free software (GPLv3) and was written by Afrasiabi Mohamadreza ([email protected]) and Matthias Röthlin ([email protected]). thermal_iwf is written in GNU C99 and does not require any dependencies. Makefiles for a debug and release build are provided. thermal_iwf has been tested under Ubuntu 16.04, but does probably run on any flavor of Linux with minimal to no modification.
