Introducing Lizzy, a Liquid Composite Molding (LCM) simulation package written in Python.
This project is still under development. Version 1.0 is on track for release in May 2026. Stay tuned!
Lizzy uses the FE/CV method to simulate a macro-scale infusion problem in porous media. The solver is mainly designed to simulate composite resin infusion processes, but can be generalised to any porous media. The name "Lizzy" was inspired by the character of Elizabeth Bennet, companion of Mr Darcy in Jane Austen's novel Pride and Prejudice.
