The FEniCS Tutorial Volume I
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

:Authors: Hans Petter Langtangen, Anders Logg (logg at chalmers.se)

This book gives a concise and gentle introduction to finite element
programming in Python based on the popular FEniCS software library.
Through a series of examples, including among others the Poisson
equation, the equations of linear elasticity, the incompressible
Navier - Stokes equations, and systems of nonlinear
advection - diffusion - reaction equations, the reader is guided through
the essential steps of how to quickly solve a PDE in FEniCS, including
how to define a finite variational problem, how to set boundary
conditions, how to solve linear and nonlinear systems, and how to
visualize solutions and structure finite element Python programs.
