Today I got a Mac OS X version of the multiphysical modeling software Elmer 3.0. This is a prerelease version, but seems to work ok. Here is a description of the software: "Elmer includes physical models of fluid dynamics, structural mechanics, electromagnetics and heat transfer. These are described by partial differential equations which Elmer solves by the Finite Element Method (FEM)." The Elmer software is available free of charge to academic users. There are a lot of examples on the Elmer web site. Linux and Windows versions are available for download on the net. The Mac OS X version is not yet available, have to test it first.
