v2.1.0
Dear preCICE Community,
Just before the summer break, we managed to wrap up a fresh, new preCICE release, version v2.1 🎉 .
You will like this one: one major improvement is that we now have error messages that tell you all about the problem you ran into and give you tips on how to fix it. One example:
Data with name "Forces" is not defined on mesh "FluidMesh".
Please add <use-data name="Forces"/> under <mesh name="FluidMesh"/>.
A very useful feature we added is parallel (but slow) RBF mapping based on a QR decomposition with Eigen. So, for medium-size problems, you can now survive without building PETSc 😌 .
And there is much more. To find out what, please have a look at our blog post on the new release or directly at the changelog.
As usual, a big "thank you" to everybody who contributed in code, issues, documentation, testing, and every other way.
Please note that the Debian package for Ubuntu Bionic (18.04 LTS) is built without PETSc.
Keep on coupling,
The preCICE Team
