In the attempt of coupling my PhD's Finite Elements Framework for Fjord Ice-ocean Interactions (FEFFII) with an ice code, I stumbled upon the issue of deforming the ocean mesh. If a simulation stretches over a long span of time, the geometry of the ice is likely to change due to …

The FEniCS project allows for simple solution of partial differential equations. However, getting started from examples is so quick, it is easy to miss how the inner-workings of it behave. This should not happen (especially if it is a PhD project). There are three vital pieces of the puzzle that …
