### 5/5 — Impressive

*2017-09-02*

Nice job of integrating finite element libraries etc into a mobile application. Must be difficult to get all that build and work on  a mobile platform. Especially with all the required dependencies.

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2016-12-18*

Excellent app for FEM computation.
Thanks
