Non-conforming adaptive mesh refinement with parallel load-balancing
MFEM is a free, lightweight, scalable C++ library for finite element methods.
Features
- Arbitrary high-order finite element meshes and spaces.
- Wide variety of finite element discretization approaches.
- Conforming and nonconforming adaptive mesh refinement.
- Scalable from laptops to GPU-accelerated supercomputers.
- ... and many more.
MFEM is used in many projects, including BLAST, Cardioid, VisIt, RF-SciDAC, FASTMath, xSDK, and CEED in the Exascale Computing Project. We host an annual workshop and a seminar series.
