Reference

The reference section is the canonical place to look up what femorph-solver actually computes — the FEM theory it implements, the element kernels it ships, and the solver algorithms it uses.

This is orthogonal to the user guide:

• User guide — how to drive the solver to get a result.

• Reference — which equations, shape functions, integration rules, algorithms, and upstream papers those results are derived from.

Every entry here cross-links to the source-level References blocks in each kernel / solver module. The docstrings carry the full citations; this section tells you which pages are load-bearing for a given problem.
