ITHACA-FV - In real Time Highly Advanced Computational Applications for Finite Volumes
ITHACA-FV (In real Time Highly Advanced Computational Applications for Finite Volumes) is C++ library based on the finite volume solver OpenFOAM. It consists of the implementation of several reduced order modeling techniques for parametrized problems. ITHACA-FV can also be used as a basis for more advanced projects that would like to assess the capability of reduced order models in their existing OpenFOAM-based software, thanks to the availability of several reduced order methods and algorithms.
ITHACA-FV is designed for OpenFOAM 1812, 1906, 1912, 2006, 2012, 2106, 2112, and 2212 but can be easily adapted to other versions of OpenFOAM.
Linear and non-linear algebra operations not already implemented in OpenFOAM are performed with the external library Eigen. The source code of Eigen 3.4.0 is provided together with ITHACA-FV as a submodule and is located in the src/thirdyparty/Eigen folder. For the EigenValue decomposition it is also possible to rely on the Spectra library and the source code is provided in the src/thirdyparty/spectra folder.
ITHACA-FV has been tested on ubuntu, centos, archLinux but can be easily compiled on any linux distribution with a compiled version of OpenFOAM (com version).
