## Introduction

🚧🚧🚧 WORK IN PROGRESS 🚧🚧🚧

This library implements essential tools to solve partial differential equations (PDEs). It does not implement full-fledge PDE solvers for general problems and, hence, this library is quite limited.

A goal is to provide tools to test other crates such as `russell_ode` and `russell_nonlinear` because they employ PDE problems as testing platforms.

Currently, simple 1D and 2D finite differences operators are implemented.

### Documentation

* [![documentation]https://docs.rs/russell_pde/badge.svg]https://docs.rs/russell_pde/ — [russell_pde documentation]https://docs.rs/russell_pde/




## Installation

This crate depends on some non-rust high-performance libraries. [See the main README file for the steps to install these dependencies.](https://github.com/cpmech/russell)



### Setting Cargo.toml

[![Crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/russell_pde.svg)](https://crates.io/crates/russell_pde)

👆 Check the crate version and update your Cargo.toml accordingly:

```toml
[dependencies]
russell_pde = "*"
```

### Optional features

The following (Rust) features are available:

* `intel_mkl`: Use Intel MKL instead of OpenBLAS
* `local_suitesparse`: Use a locally compiled version of SuiteSparse
* `with_mumps`: Enable the MUMPS solver (locally compiled)

Note that the [main README file](https://github.com/cpmech/russell) presents the steps to compile the required libraries according to each feature.
