Thetis documentation

Installation

See obtaining Thetis for installation instructions.

Tutorials

Once Thetis is successfully installed, you can start running example simulations that demonstrate basic functionality.

Note

Setting up Thetis simulations makes use of Firedrake objects, such as meshes, functions, and expression. In order to be able to follow these demo simulations, it is essential to have a basic understanding of these objects. Please refer to the Firedrake manual for more information. Defining variational problems page is a good primer for understanding the Firedrake concepts.
