HAZniCS -- Software Components for Multiphysics Problems
We introduce the software toolbox HAZniCS for solving interface-coupled
multiphysics problems. HAZniCS is a suite of modules that combines the
well-known FEniCS framework for finite element discretization with solver and
graph library HAZmath. The focus of the paper is on the design and
implementation of a pool of robust and efficient solver algorithms which tackle
issues related to the complex interfacial coupling of the physical problems
often encountered in applications in brain biomechanics. The robustness and
efficiency of the numerical algorithms and methods is shown in several
numerical examples, namely the Darcy-Stokes equations that model flow of
cerebrospinal fluid in the human brain and the mixed-dimensional model of
electrodiffusion in the brain tissue
