FEM2D_HEAT_SQUARE
A Problem in a Square Region for FEM2D_HEAT_

FEM2D_HEAT_SQUARE is a C++ library which defines the data associated with a time-dependent heat equation problem in a square region, to be linked and executed with the FEM2D_HEAT program.

This mesh uses 81 nodes and forms 32 quadratic triangular elements.

We assume that the equation to be solved is

dUdT - Laplacian U + K * U = F

K = 0,

F = (2*pi*pi-1)*sin(pi*x)*sin(pi*y)*exp(-t).

U = sin(pi*x) * sin(pi*y) * exp(-t).
