FreeFem is a high level multiphysics finite element software

FreeFEM is a popular 2D and 3D partial differential equations (PDE) solver used 
by thousands of researchers across the world. It allows you to easily implement 
your own physics modules using the provided FreeFEM language. FreeFEM offers a 
large list of finite elements, like the Lagrange, Taylor-Hood, etc., usable in 
the continuous and discontinuous Galerkin method framework. 

FreeFEM has it own internal mesher, called BAMG, and is compatible with the best
open-source mesh and visualization software like Tetgen, Gmsh, Mmg and ParaView.
Written in C++ to optimize for speed, FreeFEM is interfaced with the popular 
mumps, PETSc and HPDDM solvers.
