A Community-Driven Ecosystem of Adapters and Application Cases for the Coupling Library preCICE

preCICE是一个成熟的研究软件，用于分区多物理场和多尺度模拟，具有重要的用户社区。它使现有的仿真代码的高效，鲁棒和并行耦合。在讨论“preCICE”时，用户和其他研究人员只看到耦合库的核心。然而，preCICE不仅仅是：一个完整的生态系统，用于已建立的仿真代码，应用程序案例和更多组件的适配器。这些其他组件的质量和开发人员对其的评价远远落后于库。在这个项目中，我们提高了适配器的公平性，使社区能够进行适配器开发，并使应用程序案例可重现。为此，我们与社区一起设计和实施适配器和应用程序案例开发的标准化和质量控制。此外，我们通过自动化简化适配器和应用程序案例开发，并通过社区培训传播良好实践。

preCICE is a well-established research software for partitioned multi-physics and multi-scale simulations with a significant user community. It enables the efficient, robust, and parallel coupling of existing simulation codes. When discussing "preCICE", users and other researchers only see the coupling library at its heart. preCICE is more, however: a complete ecosystem of adapters for established simulation codes, application cases, and many more components. The quality of these other components and the appreciation of their developers lags significantly behind the library. In this project, we improve the FAIRness of adapters, enable the community for adapter development, and make application cases reproducible. To this end, we design and implement standardization and quality control of adapter and application case development together with the community. We, moreover, simplify adapter and application case development via automation and disseminate good practices via community training.
