This is the official source code repository for the Elmer FEM software suite.

Elmer is a tool that can solve a large number of partial differential equations making it an ideal tool for multiphysical problems. It includes models for structural mechanics, fluid dynamics, heat transfer, electromagnetics and beyond. Elmer can be used from PCs to massively parallel HPC platforms.
