[Savannah-help-public] [Savannah] mechsys want to be a GNU package

[savannah-hackers]

Hi,

The following project was submitted to Savannah. It needs evaluation to
become a GNU package, can you give it a look, please ?

Description: MechSys - A C++ library to simulate (Continuum) Mechanical
Systems
Copyright (C) 2005 Dorival Pedroso - GNU General Public License.
Any analysis of a mech system, such as car's chassis, building's wall,
soil dam or tunnel can take the Continuum Mechanics to help understand
deformability and resistance behavior of bodies. Generally the complex
system of partial equations are solved by the Finite Element Method.
Many programs are available, however, from my perspective, the heart
of such analysis is the elaboration of a good Constitutive Law.Thus,
this library was craftily created to help write out complex math
equations in easily and understandable computer code. Eventually this
library can be used, or expanded into a FEM program; this is one of my
objectives. For now, it has three constitutive models: NLelastic
(Non-Linear elastic for very simple metals), SubCam (Cambridge-UK
model for clays) and SubTij (Dr.Nakai's model for soils); many others
will be coded soon. A LabTestSim (Labs Test Simulator) program is
included to help check models with real materials (metals, polymers,
_soils_, etc). This library does not depend on any other software,
however gtkmm-2.4 and libglademm-2.4 are required for a Gtk+ GUI.
Also, if desired, plots will require gnuplot. I don't have web space
to link the sources, however I can email it; the code can be easly
compiled with GNU autotools (from a tar.gz file). Regards.
