LocModFE: Locally modified finite elements for approximating interface problems in deal.II

TLDR
The Software package LocModFE is an implementation of a locally modified finite element method for an accurate solution of interface problems, which was originally developed in the finite element library Gascoigne 3d and has now been rewritten in the widerspread library deal.II.
Abstract
We describe the Software package LocModFE, which is an implementation of a locally modified finite element method for an accurate solution of interface problems. The code was originally developed in the finite element library Gascoigne 3d and has now been rewritten in the widerspread library deal.II. This makes the concept of locally modified finite elements accessible to many users all over the world. Applications range from simple Poisson interface problems over multi-phase flows to complex multi-physics problems, such as fluid–structure interactions. Being based on deal.II, it provides plenty of possibilities for future extensions, e.g., parallel computing, multigrid solvers or mesh adaptivity.

A locally modified second-order finite element method for interface problems and its implementation in 2 dimensions

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors extend the locally modified finite element method in two space dimensions to second order using an isoparametric approach in the interface elements, taking care that the resulting curved edges do not lead to degenerate sub-elements.

deal.II—A general-purpose object-oriented finite element library

TL;DR: The paper presents a detailed description of the abstractions chosen for defining geometric information of meshes and the handling of degrees of freedom associated with finite element spaces, as well as of linear algebra, input/output capabilities and of interfaces to other software, such as visualization tools.

Proposal for Numerical Benchmarking of Fluid-Structure Interaction between an Elastic Object and Laminar Incompressible Flow

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe new benchmark settings for the rigorous evaluation of different methods for fluid-structure interaction problems, which consist of laminar incompressible channel flow around an elastic object which results in self-induced oscillations of the structure.
