Abstract
This software framework implements a NURBS-based Galerkin finite element method, geared towards solving the weak form of partial differential equations. This method is popularly known as isogeometric analysis (the IGA in PetIGA). We base this framework on PETSc, the Portable, Extensible Toolkit for Scientific Computation. The framework is intended for researchers in the numeric solution of PDEs who have applications which require extensive computational resources.
