NeoN

[!IMPORTANT] The NeoN project needs you! If you're interested in contributing to NeoN please open a PR! If you have any questions on where to start please contact us here or on gitter.

Requirements

NeoN has the following requirements

  • cmake > 3.22
  • gcc >= 10 or clang >= 16
  • Kokkos 4.3.0

For NVIDIA GPU support * cuda 12+

For development it is required to use pre-commit.

C++ dependencies

C++ dependencies like Kokkos are handled via CPM and are cloned at the configuration step. However, the cmake build process will prefer system wide installed C++ dependencies like Kokkos, cxxopts, etc. If you prefer to clone, configure and build dependencies your self consider setting -DCPM_USE_LOCAL_PACKAGES = OFF, see CPM for more details.

Compilation

workflows/Build on linux workflows/Build on OSX workflows/Build on windows

NeoN uses cmake to build, thus the standard cmake procedure should work. From a build directory you can execute

cmake <DesiredBuildFlags> ..
cmake --build .
cmake --install .

Additionally, we provide several Cmake presets to set commmonly required flags if you compile NeoN in combination with Kokkos.

cmake --list-presets # To list existing presets
cmake --preset production # To configure for production use
cmake --build --preset production # To compile for production use

Executing Tests

We provide a set of unit tests which can be executed via ctest or

cmake --build . --target test

Integration with other CFD Frameworks

Currently, NeoN is not a standalone CFD framework. It is designed to be used with other CFD Frameworks. Examples how to integrate NeoN into CFD frameworks and how to write applications is demonstrated in the FoamAdapter repository.

Documentation

An online documentation can be found here, be cautious since this repository is currently evolving the documentation might not always reflect the latest stage. For building the documentation further dependencies like doxygen and sphinx are requirement. The list of requirements can be found here

Citation (CITATION.cff)

cff-version: 1.2.0
message: "If you use this software, please cite it as below."
abstract: '<p>The NeoN team is proud to announce the first release of NeoN,
  a next generation implementation of a CFD core. NeoN leverages the features of
  modern C++ to implement core routines to efficiently solve PDEs required by CFD
  frameworks like OpenFOAM, thus NeoN helps to catch up with the rapidly evolving
  HPC ecosystem.</p>

  <p>Our design goals are:</p>

  <ul>

  <li>Platform portable for all CPU and GPU hardware vendors</li>

  <li>Modular design leveraging the existing simulation software ecosystem like Kokkos,
  sundials, PETSc, or Ginkgo</li>

  <li>Implement an updated domain specific language for DSL that allows to encode
  complex partial differential equations in a concise yet powerful form</li>

  <li>Simple adoption within OpenFOAM</li>

  <li>Target multiphysics simulations and enable simple integration of coupling software
  like preCICE</li>

  </ul>

  <p>This v.0.1 release is all about building a foundation for the future developments
  of NeoN. It focuses on building the foundational library structure, a first draft
  of the DSL API including basic kernels, and a solid CI/CD infrastructure from the
  start. It features unit and integration testing on Linux, macOS, and Windows as
  well as sanitizer and static analyzer <a href="https://github.com/exasim-project/NeoN/actions">workflows</a>.</p>

  <p>Integration into OpenFOAM applications are demonstrated in our <a href="https://github.com/exasim-project/FoamAdapter">FoamAdapter</a>
  repository. A full list of changes can be found in the <a href="https://github.com/exasim-project/NeoN/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md">CHANGELOG.md</a>.
  An exciting year is ahead of us, visit our <a href="https://github.com/orgs/exasim-project/projects/1/views/8">Roadmap</a>
  to find out which features are next. Thank you to everyone who <a href="https://github.com/exasim-project/NeoN/blob/main/AUTHORS.md">contributed</a>
  to NeoN.</p>'
