3 Bindings

https://concrete-fem.com

Computations may be accelerated using several bindings for C-implementations

• Standard linear algebra methods requires
  
  

  LinAlg2.py	Interface module
  _LinAlg2.pyd	C-Library for windows

  
  

• Standard element computations (current available for shell element SH4, see Section 10.3) require
  
  

  ConFemElemC.py	Interface module
  _ConFemElemC.pyd	C-Library for windows

  
  

• Material stress computations (currently available ELASTICLT without SDA-option, ISODAMAGE, MICRODAMAGE, see Section 10.4) require
  
  

  ConFemMatC.py	Interface module
  _ConFemMatC.pyd	C-Library for windows

  
  

All parts should be available in the same directory as the modules. On start of ConFem-modules it is checked whether each of these (*.py and *.pyd) is available. If so, the respective C-module is used instead of their Python counterparts.
This is all realized with SWIG ( https://www.swig.org) and might lead to considerable accelerations.
