Finite Difference Optimizer (fido)

An optimizer for locating stable finitie difference numerical boundary schemes using nlopt, legion, and shoccs. This optimizer is the code counterpart for the boundary stencils given in the uniform mesh and cut cell papers . Currently, the documentation is woefully incomplete but there are several .lua example files demonstrating how one could run the code.

Building

The easiest way to build is with spack. A spack repo with the recipe is supplied and can be activated via

    $ spack repo add /path/to/fido/spack-repo

As a quick check, a spack repo list should list /path/to/fido/spack-repo as a package repository. One should then be able to simply install fido via spack install fido. Rather than directly installing the fido package, developers are encouraged to setup a spack environment and only install the dependencies. A typical workflow for the dependencies might be:

    $ spack env create fido
    $ spack env activate fido
    $ spack install --only dependencies fido

Followed by building fido from source:

    $ cd /path/to/fido
    $ cmake -Bbuild -H. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=...
    $ cd build && make
