FEniCS
FEniCS is a popular open-source computing platform for solving partial differential equations (PDEs).
FEniCS can be built with various extensions, so we do not offer a single, global installation. Please choose between
- Installation in a virtual environment
- Using a Singularity container
Installation in a virtual environment
These are instructions for installing FEniCS version 2017.2.0.
You can run the script below by copying it to the cluster you are using and running bash fenics-install.sh.
Note that the installation will warn you that the installation will create (or replace) an installation directory, and will give usage instructions when it has successfully completed the installation. The script can be modified to change the installation directory if needed.

FEniCS add-ons
First install FEniCS following instructions above.
mshr
module load hdf5-mpi/1.8.18 boost eigen python/3.5 scipy-stack/2017b petsc/3.7.5 fftw-mpi/3.3.6
export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/home/$USER/software/dolfin/share/dolfin/cmake/:$CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
git clone https://bitbucket.org/fenics-project/mshr.git
cd mshr
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/software/mshr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_SKIP_RPATH=ON -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$NIXUSER_PROFILE:$CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH -DEIGEN3_INCLUDE_DIR=$EBROOTEIGEN/include
make
make install
Then run
module load hdf5-mpi/1.8.18 boost eigen python/3.5 scipy-stack/2017b petsc/3.7.5 fftw-mpi/3.3.6
source ~/software/dolfin/share/dolfin/dolfin.conf
source ~/fenics/bin/activate
export PYTHONPATH=$HOME/software/mshr/lib/python3.5/site-packages:$PYTHONPATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/software/mshr/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Using a Singularity container
The following Singularity Recipe will download the FEniCS Docker image, install it, and download additional packages, e.g., various Python packages. This recipe must be run on your own machine, that is, a Linux machine with Singularity installed where you have root access.
To build your FEniCS image using this recipe, run the following command:
sudo singularity build FEniCS.simg FEniCS-ComputeCanada-Singularity-Recipe
and then upload FEniCS.simg
to your account. The FEniCS Docker image places a number of files in /home/fenics
.
