Dynamic (explicit) to Static (standard) analysis

Submitted by apin87@hotmail.com on

Greetings ,

i had successfully running my model in the step with dynamic (explicit).

BUT once i change my model with step in static (standard) then the job stop running in the half way with the error of

"too many increment in this step etc".. i had try decrease my small increment size to 0.001 but it still failed.. your help highly appreciated. 

how can i solve this problems?? 

between, will it the result between Dynamic (explicit) to Static (standard) analysis difference??  

 

Publication citation metrics and h-index for Australian Universities

Submitted by Gareth Forbes on

For similar reasons outlined by Zhigang’s post node/2345 I
have found it necessary to find comparisons in publication citation
metrics/indices whilst in Academic employment. Much has been discussed about
the appropriate use of these metrics and the arguments on the benefits and
drawbacks are both compelling. Whatever your opinion, it seems that for the
foreseeable future these publication citation metrics are here to stay.

dispersive and nondispersive results!

Submitted by amceuma on

Hi dear friends 

I am working about wave propagation modeling in solids. in FEM for 1D beam model when governed differential equation of motion is solving by central difference method the output results of displacement are nondispersive but by using MATLAB "lsim" command for simulation of LTI system for arbitrary inputs, the outputs are dispersive which we expect this phenomenon will be happen in beam like models!

in bar models both methods leads to nondispersive results which is resonable.

could you help me?

Questions about UEL

Submitted by ashkan khalili on
Hi everybody,

I have a UEL for truss element (T3D2). I'm calling and reading some .dat files inside of the UEL. I'm just reading these files inside of the UEL without doing anything to them or with them (It's just a test case). Here is an example:
 
      OPEN(101, file="C:\Users\ak1070\Desktop\UMAT-UEL-UELMAT\UEL TEST\V1.dat", status='old',form='formatted',&
