Application background

It is necessary to have FEFLOW installed.This converter is developed in Python language and interacts with the FEFLOW Python API. In order to make the FEFLOW Python API accessible on Linux, we supply a setup (https://gitlab.opengeosys.org/owf/first-project-phase/feflow-python-docker) to create a DOCKER container. Inside the DOCKER container the converter works, as in the process of building the container, FEFLOW is installed. Another option to work with the API, is to use the supplied bash-script "fepython80", as it sets the environmental variables correctly.

Furthermore, the converter works with ifm_contrib (https://github.com/red5alex/ifm_contrib), which is a library to enhance the functionalities of the FEFLOW Python API.This library is included in the converter folder and was adjusted to make it compatible with FEFLOW 8.0
