Elements
Different element types are introduced
PlatesTwo small plates are pulled apart with a specified velocity. |
Rod IFile rod.k demonstrates wave propagation in one dimension using bar elements. |
Rod IIFile rodsol.k demonstrates wave propagation in one dimension using solid elements. |
SolidThis is just a preparation file to study connection between solid and beam elements. |
Spring IThis is an example for a spring-mass simulation. Its purpose is to learn about discrete elements. A linear elastic material for discrete springs is used. |
Spring IIThis is an example for a spring-mass simulation. Its purpose is to learn about discrete elements. A nonlinear elastic material with user defined force-displacement curve is used. |
Spring IIIThis is a simple one dimensional one element example to show how to use *MAT_SPRING_GENERAL_NONLINEAR keyword. Two different curves for describing force versus displacement during loading and unloading are given. Initial yield forces in tension and in compression are specified. Isotropic hardening without strain softening is chosen. |
