nonlinear aeroelastic response would include two solvers for generating the structural and
aerodynamic models, a static coupled solver to initialise the solution, and a dynamic coupled solver.

+``Postprocessors`` are treated as a special type of solvers that can be run during or after the simulation

The structural and aerodynamic models are given in HDF5 (CITE) format. To
avoid redundancy and precision errors, the aerodynamic grid for the UVLM is built upon
the structural model. Aerodynamic-related information such as twist angle, airfoil shape
and elastic axis location is given with respect to the structural elements and nodes.

+Time-dependent input can be included through ``Generators`` and ``Controllers``.
``Generators`` are intended to be used mainly to create velocity fields that are
then input into the UVLM code. On the other hand, ``Controllers`` can have a broader
scope. They can be used to control lifting surfaces in open and closed loop, or
