What is preCICE?
preCICE is a coupling library for partitioned multi-physics simulations, such as fluid-structure interaction or conjugate heat transfer simulations. preCICE couples existing programs capable of simulating a subpart of the complete physics involved in a simulation. This forum is about discussing present and future use-cases of the library as well as helping each other to achieve individual goals and collective success.
