[Getdp] Сompare GetDP against other FEM software

[Konstantin Ladutenko]

Dear GetDP users,

I would like to provide a good comparison of available FEM software for
newcomers willing to become a FEM pro. There is a GitHub page
https://github.com/kostyfisik/FEA-compare and a HTML copy of the comparison
table in its current revision
https://cdn.rawgit.com/kostyfisik/FEA-compare/d6151be7ede03f5ef85ced4366821a54b5aef094/table.html
 with fixed first column and row for ease of exploration. As far as to
provide a good feature review of any FEM software you need to master it
first, this way I would like to ask any GetDP enthusiast to provide such a
profile.

Could anyone provide such a profile for GetDP software? Users of GetFEM++,
Deal.II, ElmerFEM, FEniCS and few others had already contributed feature
lists for their favorite FEM package. Fill free to provide any data for the
same feature as listed or you can provide any new features, that can be
important for such a comparison. The preferred way to contribute is a
GitHub pull request with a profile (this way it should be easy to combine
profiles from several users). The blank profile is in the file
https://github.com/kostyfisik/FEA-compare/blob/master/main-keys.txt ,
filled examples are in
https://github.com/kostyfisik/FEA-compare/tree/master/profiles  . Python
script to generate a table using profiles is also provided. If any
questions feel free to e-mail me tok.ladutenko at metalab.ifmo.ru

Best regards,
Konstantin Ladutenko
