MFEM 4.0 Released

[tzanio]

Dear MFEM community,

Version 4.0 of MFEM was released on May 24, 2019. Some of the new additions in this release are:

• Initial support for GPU acceleration:
  • Device kernels can be written in CUDA, OCCA, RAJA or OpenMP.
  • Several examples have been ported with minimal code changes.
  • Many linear algebra and finite element operations can use device acceleration by simply replacing loops with the MFEM_FORALL macro.
  • The library provides seamless device/host memory management.
• Partially assembled finite element operators in the core library.
• Support for wedge/prism elements and meshes with mixed element types.
• General "low-order refined"-to-"high-order" field transfer.
• Seven new examples and miniapps.
