[philipcardiff]

@ztukovic @iBatistic, this is the pre-review thread.

[kyleniemeyer]

@TJFord @sthavishtha @mohd-afeef-badri @MakisH would any of you be able to review this submission for JOSS? It is a toolbox for simulating solid mechanics and fluid-solid interactions in OpenFOAM. Thanks!

[MakisH]

@kyleniemeyer I am available and have the can review this submission.

For full disclosure, I have met @philipcardiff in conferences and he has previously contributed solids4foam-related extensions to the preCICE OpenFOAM adapter and tutorials (which I work on), for which reason we appear together in a dataset publication (2022): https://darus.uni-stuttgart.de/dataset.xhtml?persistentId=doi:10.18419/darus-3576 In the same context, he has been invited speaker to a workshop I and colleagues organized in February 2023: https://precice.org/precice-workshop-2023.html

From my side, I have had no involvement to the solids4foam so far, but I have shortly used it before in the context of preCICE. I also know the project from many references in the literature. I think I can be give an objective review, and I am interested in seeing how the project evolved since the last time I had a look into it.

[sthavishtha]

thanks @kyleniemeyer for the invite, but I am unfortunately unavailable until the end of this year.

[kyleniemeyer]

Thanks @MakisH! That sounds fine to me.

[kyleniemeyer]

@editorialbot add @MakisH as reviewer

[kyleniemeyer]

Whoops, sorry for the erroneous commands. I'm actually surprised editorialbot didn't raise an error for the editor assignment...

We have two reviewers, so I'm going to start the review issue now.

[kyleniemeyer]

@editorialbot start review

[editorialbot]

OK, I've started the review over in #7407.
