pdnmesh
========
A 2D finite element program. It can do the following
1)Mesh generation using Delaunay triangulation
2)Adaptive refinement of the mesh while solving
3)Solving the problem using LU decomposition. LAPACK can be used
  to solve eigenproblems.
4)Full GUI support.
5)Generating Postscript output of the mesh and the contour.
6)Generating a data file of the mesh that can be used in any other 
  better finite element program


How to INSTALL?
===============
Please read INSTALL.

The operation of the program
============================
At command prompt, in Xwindows or MSWindows, type:
 pdnmesh -i your_input_file
Type 
 pdnmesh -h 
for help.

DXF files generated by CAD programs can be converted to pdnmesh input format.
