Edit me

There are various codes - free and proprietary ones - currently coupled with preCICE. If you want to add your code here, please let us know.

Official adapters

We host adapters for the following codes in the preCICE GitHub organization and we maintain them to work with the latest release of preCICE (unless stated otherwise).

Adapter for Resources Typical applications Comments
OpenFOAM code, docs Fluid part in CHT, FSI, FF  
deal.II code, docs Structure part in FSI, any FEM  
FEniCS code, docs Structure part in CHT, FSI, any FEM  
Nutils docs Structure part in CHT, any FEM  
CalculiX code, docs Structure part in CHT, FSI  
SU2 code, docs Fluid part in FSI Maintainer needed
code_aster code, docs Structure part in CHT  
Ansys Fluent code, docs Fluid part in FSI Experimental

Third-party adapters

The preCICE community has successfully coupled the following codes with preCICE for community projects. Wherever meaningful (license, maturity of the project, no other home), we host the code repository.

Adapter for Contact Resources Typical applications
LS-DYNA LKR code example Continuous metal casting process
MBDyn TU Delft Wind Energy code Structure part in FSI
Alya TUM SCCS Fluid and structure part in FSI Not actively maintained (but not abandoned)
Ateles (APES) Univ. Siegen STS code Fluid-Acousting, Fluid-Fluid coupling
FASTEST TU Darmstadt FNB None Fluid-Structure-Acoustics interaction
FEAP TU Darmstadt FNB None Structure part in FSI

Legacy adapters

These adapters and/or the respective solvers are not maintained and might not work anymore, but are listed here as an example of which other projects have used preCICE in the past.
