Help

If you want to give me feedback, you are very welcome to do so. I am happy of any kind of helpful feedback, including but not limited to typos, overcomplicated text, overcomplicated reasoning, proof mistakes, new ideas, ...

You can

• talk to me
• write an e-mail with your comments
• change something and send me git patch files (to felix.hilsky@tu-dresden.de)
• change something and create a Merge Request (my favorite) either from your gitlab instance or with write access to the MatNat-Gitlab
• Make comments on the pdf and send that to me
• Print the pdf and comment on paper and give that to me

Adviser

Prof. Sander and Hanne Hardering motivated me to dive into geometric finite elements and offered to guide me during the master thesis.

File structure

The file structure is based on my LaTeX-template with additions. Top-level directories are

• tex The actual text in .tex files are here
• notes Notes that are not part of the actual master thesis text and are usually not written in LaTeX are here

• scripts Programs needed for the tex file handling are here

• out latexmk creates pdfs and temporary files in there, thanks to .latexmkrc config file
• .latexmkrc config file that tells latexmk to use lualatex and the output directory out
• .gitlab-ci.yml tells the gitlab to compile the current document and supply it via the api

Create the document

Run the command latexmk. If you want to compile only one part, run latexmk tex/thepart.tex. The product is in out.

Permalinks

I plan to make sure, that https://hilsky.de/masterarbeitrepo points to this repository and https://hilsky.de/masterarbeit points to the up-to-date version of the pdf.
