Open-source Package for FEA & Hyperelasticity (Python)

[adtzlr]

Hi,

thank you all for this wonderful package. This is really amazing and a joy to code with. I've seen this package and this was actually my initial motivation to learn Julia 😄.

I'd like to introduce to you my Python project FElupe. It is an open-source package for finite element analysis for continuum mechanics of solid bodies, especially hyperelasticity.

Of course FElupe is not as fast as Ferrite.jl or even as flexible or as feature-complete, but I spent many many hours in writing the docs. I could imagine that there might be something interesting inside for anyone using Ferrite.jl, too.

I hope it is okay to post a link to the docs of a Python package here. Otherwise feel free to just close or delete this post.

All the best,
Andreas

P.S.: FYI, the performance of the tensor operations in Ferrite.jl is exceptionally good 🚀. I did some benchmarks with FElupe in Python and compared to Ferrite.jl it is magnitudes slower, see e.g. adtzlr/felupe#662.
