Discussion & Issue

Running FEniCS on the local machine through Docker seems to suffer from the relatively complex structures. There are several more interesting geometries implemented in this study, but FEniCS ran into "out of memory" issue by only applying the condition that geometry is subjecting to body force. The same error occurred when applying traction or Dirichlet boundary condition on their own with the same geometry. Looks like applying simple mathematical expression on a complex domain is more expensive to solve compares to solving a complex equation on a simple domain. Also, by default system limitation of RAM usage on Docker, even the computing power of local machine cannot be fully utilized.
