Erpel : Sebastian Kapfer’s FEM code for effective elastic properties of voxelised spatial structures

Erpel is a finite-element code computing effective elastic properties of anisotropic multiphase media. It implements a conjugate-gradient scheme on cubic voxels and has been proven to scale to at 768³ voxels in aErpel_image_small MPI environment. Developed by Sebastian Kapfer, partially while spending some time in the Applied Maths group at the Australian National University.
