## Description

Notus is an innovative open-source Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software developed by the Institut d’Ingénierie et de Mécanique at Bordeaux University since 2015. Designed for modeling and simulating incompressible and subsonic fluid flows, Notus utilizes a robust numerical framework based on the Finite Volume method on Cartesian staggered grids. The software emphasizes effective interface treatment, with ongoing advancements in fluid-fluid interface advection, surface tension computation, and immersed boundary methods.

Notus aims to serve both the mechanical and mathematical communities by providing an easily adaptable code based on state-of-the-art numerical methods. It allows researchers to develop new numerical schemes efficiently without rewriting the entire codebase, supporting extensive comparative and qualitative testing. The software is optimized for use on massively parallel supercomputers, simplifying the complexities of parallel programming. Furthermore, it offers a comprehensive set of validated numerical tools to address diverse mathematical and physical challenges, accompanied by thorough documentation for user support.
