Abstract
This paper presents a domain decomposition framework with self-registering and reusable subdomains for finite element (FE) applications. The framework enhances traditional FE applications written in Python by automatically decomposing the system into subdomains and enabling the storage and reuse of existing subdomain solutions, significantly reducing the computational time for systems with minor changes. The proposed framework is evaluated through a solid mechanics application to assess its contribution to the analysis speed.
