The libmesh library is a c++ framework for the numerical simulation of partial differential equations on serial and parallel platforms. development began in march 2002 with the intent of providing a friendly interface to a number of high-quality software packages that are publicly available. currently the library supports 1d, 2d, and 3d steady and transient finite element and finite volume simulations. petsc is currently used for the solution of linear systems on both serial and parallel platforms.

this package contains the dynamic libmesh library.
