OFELI is an object oriented library of C++ classes for development of finite element codes. Its main features are : * Various storage schemes of matrices (dense, sparse, skyline). * Direct methods of solution of linear systems of equations as well as various combinations of iterative solvers and preconditioners. * Shape functions of most "popular" finite elements * Element arrays of most popular problems (Heat Transfer, Fluid Flow, Solid Mechanics, Electromagnetics, ...).

ABAQUS is a general purpose finite element analysis program which is widely used to analyses mechanical, structure and civil engineering problems. Abaqus has some special feature for analysing fracture mechanics problems, and therefore it is a main tools for the FE-analysis in the Fracture Group at the Mechanical Engineering at Glasgow Universtity. The software which can transfer
data from Abaqus into a Matlab readable environment has been developed as a part of a research program in Constraint Estimation in Fracture Mechanics. This research program was funded by a grant from the Defence Research Agency through Prof. J. Sumpter.
The Reed-Somolon code is specified by the finite field, the length
(length <= 2^m-1), the number of redundant symbols (length-k), and
the initial zero of the code, init_zero, such that the zeros are:
init_zero, init_zero+1, ..., init_zero+length-k-1
The Viterbi algorithm is the same as the binary case with one main difference: The survivor sequences include the uncoded bits, which are decided at each trellis stage when selecting one of two parallel branches with the largest correlation metric.
Presently, only 8-PSK modulation is considered. Extensions to higher-order modulations can be implemented following a similar procedure.
