The Kratos Workshop gathers its users and developing community in Delft
Published: 25/11/2022
From 9 to 10 November 2022, the premises of Deltares in Delft (The Netherlands) hosted a new edition of the Kratos Multiphysics Workshop. The event was held within the Delft Software Days. Deltares was the venue for more than 60 users and developers of Kratos worldwide to present and discuss the latest applications, new scientific insights in modelling, not only in the Computational Geo-Mechanics field, but in the wider application base of Kratos. During the second day, the users of the software could ask questions directly to Kratos the technical committee and to the team of developers.
The CIMNE researchers Alejandro Cornejo, Carlos Roig and Rubén Zorrilla attended this meeting.
What is Kratos?
Kratos is an Open-Source framework for the implementation of numerical methods for the solution of engineering problems. It is written in C++ and is designed to allow collaborative development by large teams of researchers focusing on modularity as well as on performance. The Kratos features a "core" and "applications" approach where "standard tools" (databases, linear algebra, search structures, etc...) come as a part of the core and are available as building blocks in the development of "applications" which focus on the solution of the problems of interest. Its ultimate goal is to simplify the development of new numerical methods.
