ffp/mcf - release 1.0 for FEFLOW 6.0 and 6.2 running in 64bit mode

There is a recent paper about this code available with details about the application, see http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S009830041400051X

For those interested in using the FEFLOW plug-in please feel free to contact me (w.ruehaak@gmx.net) for information. 

Here are some application details:

In the graphical user interface of FEFLOW the user has to load the plug-in, afterwards the following reference data have to be created:
* Nodal - "Neumann": the Neumann boundary conditions (unit is MPa); have to be assigned to an area of horizontal 3 or vertical 4 nodes.
* Nodal - "DirichletX": boundary condition for the displacement in x-direction (unit is m)
* Nodal - "DirichletY": boundary condition for the displacement in y-direction (unit is m)
* Nodal - "DirichletZ": boundary condition for the displacement in z-direction (unit is m)
* Elemental "Parameter1": Lamés first parameter λ (unit is MPa)
* Elemental "Parameter2": Lamés second parameter μ (unit is MPa)

For generating VTK outputfiles which can be used to display the deformed 3D mesh a Time Series with the number 9999 has to be created and has to contain the times for which an output is wanted.
For more complex Neumann boundary conditions and additional settings an input file (named settings.dat, stored in the FEFLOW Folder structure import+export) can be
 defined (still under development - get in touch if you are interested in this).

FEFLOW and also the presented plug-in can be run under Microsoft Windows and Linux (32 bit and 64 bit). However, only a Windows version is currently available. Developers wanting to build a Linux version should contact the corresponding author in advance for advice.
The current version of ffp and mcf is developed based on the Intel c++ compiler and the Intel MKL library. However, a change to g++ and/or the GSL library is possible without too much effort. The usage of other free libraries for linear algebra, like for instance Lis (Nishida, 2010) is planned for future releases.
