Implementing example for solving biharmonic equation in C++

Open aneeshs1729 opened this issue 8 months ago • 9 comments

Dear Developers and Maintainers, I would like to implement an implementation of the biharmonic equation as a new problem in MFem, and attempt to implement it in base C.

The biharmonic problem is the equation $\Delta^2u =f(x,y)$.

For my implementation, I will be using clamped boundary conditions.

$u(x,y)=0\in \partial \Omega$, $\nabla u(x,y)\cdot \hat{n}=0\in \partial \Omega$. The weak form for this PDE is

$\int_{\Omega} \Delta u \Delta v=\int_{\Omega} fv$ .

Please let me know if you have any suggestions regarding this implementation or any specific considerations I should keep in mind. Looking forward to your feedback!
