Welcome to the OOFEM wiki! The purpose of this resource is to promote collaboration between OOFEM users. Specifically, this page is not intended to replace the OOFEM forums, which are the proper place for detailed questions & discussions. This page should provide a basic knowledge base that can be used by both existing and new users and to demonstrate the capabilities of OOFEM.
Follow Installation instructions describing how to install OOFEM on your system. There is also a README file included in distribution, which describes the installation procedure.
Ask not what OOFEM can do for you, ask what you can do for OOFEM!
There are a number of ways that you can contribute to help make OOFEM a better system. Perhaps the most important way to contribute is to write high-quality code to extend or improve the functionality, and to make your code freely available for others to use.
If you've already written a useful class or module for OOFEM that you would like to make available for others to use, please send it to the project e-mail info(at)oofem.org. Messages sent to this list will be seen by the maintainers, and will be considered for inclusion in future releases of OOFEM. Active developers may obtain commit access to subversion repository.
If you are not a programmer and cannot provide funding or contribute code, you can still help make OOFEM better and more reliable by reporting any bugs you find in the latest version and/or by offering suggestions for ways to improve OOFEM. The OOFEM developers appreciate to hear from you!
Last but not least, updates and contribution to the web pages and OOFEM WIKI are highly appreciated.
