DAFoam: Discrete Adjoint with OpenFOAM
======================================
[![tests](https://github.com/mdolab/dafoam/actions/workflows/reg_tests.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/mdolab/dafoam/actions/workflows/reg_tests.yml) [![codecov](https://codecov.io/gh/mdolab/dafoam/branch/main/graph/badge.svg?token=8F8E7FAFGA)](https://codecov.io/gh/mdolab/dafoam)
DAFoam develops an efficient discrete adjoint method to perform high-fidelity multidisciplinary design optimization. DAFoam has the following features:
- It uses a popular open-source package [OpenFOAM](https://www.openfoam.com) for multiphysics analysis.
- It implements a [Jacobian-free discrete adjoint](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0376042119300120) approach with competitive speed, scalability, and accuracy.
- It has a convenient Python interface to couple with [OpenMDAO](https://openmdao.org) for multidisciplinary design optimization.
