The Feynman Lectures on Physics, reproduced in HTML of exceptional high quality
Caltech has made the Feynman Lectures on Physics, Vol I, freely accessible online. The quality of the HTML file is exceptionally high. Take a look at the preface to learn how this electronic version was produced.
large deformation of beam element
hello
my name is mohamad. I am phd student in mechanical engineering. I want to use of total lagrangian formulation for analysis of a cantilever. my difficulty is on implementation of newton raphson method and incrementing load. my code does not converge. can you help me. if there is a simple code I was wondering if someone aware me.
thanks in advance.

Nonlinear elastic inclusions in isotropic solids
We introduce a geometric framework to calculate the residual stress fields and deformations of nonlinear solids with inclusions and eigenstrains. Inclusions are regions in a body with different reference configurations from the body itself and can be described by distributed eigenstrains. Geometrically, the eigenstrains define a Riemannian 3-manifold in which the body is stress-free by construction. The problem of residual stress calculation is then reduced to finding a mapping from the Riemannian material manifold to the ambient Euclidean space.
Any one could introduce some basic materials about membrane vibration
Recently, I have decided research about membrane vibration. Any one could introduce some basic materials about membrane vibration?Thanks!
