Re: [firedrake] pyOP2 installation

This is correct. Installing PETSc via PiP will install PETSc in the Python subtree. It won't go anywhere near your system PETSc installation.

Paper from the Deal.II people on something vaguely OP2-like
by David Ham 28 Jan '14

28 Jan '14

Hi All, The Deal.II people have put a submitted preprint of something which looks a little OP2-like up on the web. http://www.math.tamu.edu/~bangerth/publications/2013-pattern.pdf They cite some of our earlier work (although I think they mischaracterise it fairly awfully), but they don't mention PyOP2, which is unfortunate.

pyOP2 installation
by Colin Cotter 28 Jan '14

28 Jan '14

Dear firedrakers, I'm going to attempt a pyOP2 installation this evening. As I've already mentioned to David and Lawrence, I'm concerned about breaking my build for our quads Fluidity branch which requires Petsc 3.1, which I currently bring in via an environment module. Do I correctly understand that if I pip install the python Petsc 3.4 module that this will be installed somewhere else and won't cause me any bother when I try to use the quads branch? Please reassure me and let me know if I have to do something other than what is written on the pyOP2 installation page in order to get this right. all the best --Colin

FEM course recommences 1030 23 January
by David Ham 22 Jan '14

22 Jan '14

Hello all, For those who have been following the FEM course in person or online, we will start again next Thursday at 1030. I plan to cover the construction of basis functions in preparation for moving on to FEM in more dimensions the following week. As usual, the videos will appear online as soon as they are processed, which will probably be the day after they are given. Links to the videos so far can be found at http://wp.doc.ic.ac.uk/spo/finite-element/ Regards, David -- Dr David Ham Departments of Mathematics and Computing Imperial College London http://www.imperial.ac.uk/people/david.ham

Hi folks, I've started a repo for the supercomputing paper: http://bitbucket.org/mapdes/sc14 If you don't have access and think you should, please email me your bitbucket user name. There is currently little there other than a very long list of TODO items. Lawrence

(no subject)

Dear Firedrakers, As you will have observed from your diary, we (the core Firedrake people at Imperial) are scheduled to spend Wednesday to Friday on a documentation sprint. I have a couple of proposals about this 1. The starting assumption is that individuals will be working on documenting bits of Firedrake they are working on. This hopefully maximises the benefit to individuals and means documentation is written by the people with the relevant expertise. 2. We should meet mid-morning tomorrow to coordinate exactly what we're doing.

I hope you'll come to Bradley's talk at 11 in WPL212. We do stencils too. Plus it's just nice work. I hope you will also be around later in the day to tell Bradley a bit about what you, and we, do. Thanks Paul
