Installation

Instruction

PyElastica requires Python 3.5 - 3.8, which needs to be installed prior to using PyElastica. For information on installing Python, see here. If you are interested in using a package manager like Conda, see here.

Note

Python version above 3.8 is tested only in Ubuntu and Mac OS. For Windows 10, some of the dependencies were not yet compatible.

The easiest way to install PyElastica is with pip:

$ pip install pyelastica

You can also download the source code for PyElastica directly from GitHub.

Dependencies

The core of PyElastica is developed using:

• numpy

• numba

• scipy

• tqdm

• matplotlib (visualization)

Above packages will be installed along with PyElastica if you used pip to install. If you have directly downloaded the source code, you must install these packages separately.
