- PVFMM README File
- *****************
- PVFMM Version 1.0.0 is the latest release (January 2014)
- WHAT IS PVFMM?
- ==============
- PVFMM is a library for solving certain types of elliptic partial
- differential equations.
-
- * We support Stokes, Poisson, and Helmholtz problems on the unit
- cube, with free-space or periodic boundary conditions, with
- constant or mildly varying coefficients. Our method is based on
- volume potential integral equation formulation accelerated by the
- Kernel Independent Fast Multipole Method.
- HOW TO GET PVFMM
- ================
- For the latest stable release of PVFMM
- <URL: padas.ices.utexas.edu/pvfmm.tgz>
- LICENSE
- =======
- PVFMM is distributed under the LGPLv3 licence. See COPYING in
- the top-level directory of the distribution.
- INSTALLING PVFMM
- ================
- To install PVFMM, follow the steps in the INSTALL file, which is
- located in the top directory of the source distribution.
- USING PVFMM
- ===========
- The file examples/Makefile can be used as a template makefile for any
- project using the library. In general the MakeVariables file should
- be included in any makefile and CXXFLAGS_PVFMM and LDFLAGS_PVFMM should
- be used to compile the code.
- Two very simple examples illustrating usage of the library are available:
- For particle N-body : examples/src/example1.cpp
- For volume potentials: examples/src/example2.cpp
- To compile these examples:
- make examples/bin/example1
- make examples/bin/example2
- * The volume potentials example will take a long time, the first time
- it is used, since it has to precompute quadrature rules. This data
- is saved to a file and used for subsequent runs. See INSTALL for
- the configure option '--with-precomp-dir=DIR' to set the default
- path for precomputed data.
