Subject: New release, preCICE v3.3
With preCICE v3.3, we focused on improving clarity, portability, and tooling. The
new release brings clearer coupling-state output and more helpful error
messages. Tooling has been reworked significantly and is now bundled in the
new preCICE CLI. Platform support–especially for Windows via MSYS2–has
been expanded. More information, in the blog post:
https://precice.discourse.group/t/highlights-of-the-new-precice-release-v3-3/2636
What is preCICE?
preCICE is a coupling library for partitioned multi-physics and multi-scale
simulations. The software offers methods for transient equation coupling,
communication, and data mapping. preCICE is written in C++, but includes
bindings for C, Fortran, Matlab, Python, Rust, and Julia. Ready-to-use adapters
for many solvers, such as OpenFOAM, deal.II, FEniCS, SU2, or CalculiX, are
available. Due to the minimally-invasive approach of preCICE, adapters for in-
house codes can be implemented and validated in only a few weeks. preCICE is
an open-source software under the LGPL3 license.
