⚙️ Metafor

Metafor is an implicit simulation code written in C++ and python for the modelling of forming processes using the finite element method. Metafor is able to handle: large deformations/rotations, non-linear constitutive behaviours of materials, contact with rigid/deformable tools or self contact. Typical applications are: metal forming such as roll forming, deep drawing, levelling, extrusion, etc. crash/impact (onto metals or composites) biomechanics, fluid / structure coupling (with the help of CUPyDO). Metafor was initially the result of the PhD thesis of Prof. Jean-Philippe PONTHOT, my PhD supervisor. In 2000, I decided to entirely rewrite Metafor using C++ with the help my colleagues and the Oofelie toolkit (see Open Engineering). ...

🌐 Jekyll

This site is built with github pages which is based on jekyll, a set of ruby modules (“gems”) for the creation of static websites and blogs from templates (liquid) and markdown/html files. When I first tried to build a site with github pages, I didn’t understand a lot of things and I finally decided to stop trying. The problem was that github pages involve a lot of programs I didn’t know very well (ruby, gems, yaml, liquid, sass). Moreover, most examples heavily use the latest versions of html5, css and javascript which are rather different from the ones I used in the past. I have finally taken the time to understand how all these “new” things where connected to each other and how github pages work. ...
