GetDP is a rather general open source finite element solver using mixed elements to discretize de Rham-type complexes in one, two and three dimensions. GetDP is developed by the ACE group from the Montefiore Institute at the University of Liège, and is released under the GNU GPL.

Getting started

ONELAB allows to use GetDP as a black-box solver: you don't need to know anything about finite elements or de Rham complexes in order to run your first simulations:

  1. Download and uncompress the Gmsh/GetDP bundle for Windows64, Windows32, Linux64, Linux32 or MacOSX. (If you prefer you can of course also download and install Gmsh and GetDP independently, or recompile them from source code.)
  2. Double-click on the Gmsh executable (gmsh.exe
    Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
    on Windows).
  3. Load one of the GetDP models (.pro file) through the File/Open menu, e.g. magnet.pro for the Template:GetDPFile example.
  4. Click on Run.
  5. ... that's it!
