ASTE: An artificial solver testing environment for partitioned coupling with preCICE

<p>This dataset contains a software archive of the artificial solver testing environment ASTE (version v3.3.0), its corresponding documentation (as a PDF) and the compatible <a href="https://precice.org/tutorials-aste-turbine.html">ASTE turbine tutorial</a>. The documentation of ASTE is its <a href="https://darus.uni-stuttgart.de/file.xhtml?persistentId=doi:10.18419/darus-4562/2">README.md</a> (in 'docs/README.md') <a href="https://precice.org/docs-meta-publish-to-pdf.html">converted to a PDF</a>. The turbine tutorial is part of the preCICE tutorials in the <a href="https://doi.org/10.18419/darus-4167">preCICE distribution v2404.0</a>. The dataset is connected to a publication in the <a href="https://joss.theoj.org/" target="_blank">Journal of Open Source Software</a> (see related software).</p>

<p>The artificial solver testing environment (ASTE) allows to replace and imitate models coupled via the coupling library <a href="https://precice.org/" target="_blank">preCICE</a> by artificial ones, potentially in parallel distributed across multiple ranks on distributed memory.
This helps in the development of preCICE, adapters, or simulation setups by reducing the necessary software components, simplifying execution workflows, and reducing runtime of the case.</p>

<p>
This version of ASTE was tested with preCICE <a href="https://github.com/precice/precice/releases/tag/v3.1.2" target="_blank">v3.1.2</a>. Other preCICE v3 releases should be compatible as well.</p>
