I don't have access to this article, but from the author names, those
are people from the Simula laboratory doing SyFi.

Yep, let us know what you like the best.

Writing a good FEM library is very hard. After trying fenics, syfi,
libmesh (I used that one for quite a long time), I ended up with
sfepy:

that is Python + C, maybe not so nice documented for newcomers, but
very simple, fast, doing all I need and having the author 100km from
Prague, where I live. :)
