Overview

• Spent majority of time on an overview of openCMISS to introduce Jagir.

Jagir

• working on electrical physiology of the heart.
• wants to work on a maintainable framework that will still be available when he finishes his PhD.
• will sit down with Karl and Travis for an introduction to libMesh.

Mesh Data and Fields

• Travis has been looking at getting meshes and data into libMesh.
  • Didn't have much success with reading xta after xtr format but universal (unv) format seemed to work fine.
• The best way to handle generic independent fields with interpolations in libMesh is to add them to a System that is never solved.
