Hello everyone, I am new to using Fenics and also FEM/ fluid dynamics in general and I am struggling to complete code that will compute lift and drag around a cyliner inside a fluid flow. So far this is my code, but I dont know how to start the computation of the lift and drag. Also I am not entir…
