Does anyone can help me on spooles package's iterative method ?
Dear everyone :
I need your help !
I am using spooles , and I have successfully
use it in direct methods which is in directory
/misc/drivers , and I have run into problems when
I use the code in /Iter/drivers , for the demos in it
, I have run successfully , but I want to use the same
matrix of A and b as in direct method when I do in direct,
in fact , I am use a fortran code for main program , I
only to take use of spooles as a subroutine , to solve Ax=b for
me, the code iter.c in Iter/drivers , is a main c program , and I want to
change it as a subroutine for my fortran main program .
and I don't know how to change it to a suitable code . because in the

Mechanism To Increase Energy Efficiency.

View the figure attached. It is about using Cam for increase
energy efficiency. Cam are generally used to open and close valve of IC
Engine. I am going to show you another use. Left side initial position.
Right side final position. Redius of cam continuously decrease.Sliding
weight (MG) applied on Cam. With the help of rope weight(MG*Cos(b)) is
fixed with cam. We consider b as 45. So cos 45=.70. This fixed weight
should be 0.70 MG. Which balance the sliding weight applied on cam in
tengential direction. As sliding weight come down the fixed weight go
up. But the twist is the redius of cam decrease nominal continuously.
So sliding weight come down little bit and fixed weight go up much
more. We consider sliding weight come dowm H2 height and fixed weight

Cyclic Plastic Dissipation Calcualtion in UMAT

During Fatigue temperaure of materials increases due to plastic deformation.  I am trying to calcualte plastic dissipation in UMAT and use it as heat source in HETVAl to get temperature rise.  I do not know how to add plastic dissipation calculation in UMAt.  I am wondering if some body  give me an example which is done close to what I want to do.

WhatDifference:same stress-strain curve for linear elastic material with nonlinear young's modulus and hyperelastic material

Hi everyone,

Now I am trying to implement Ogden model in Comsol Multiphysics, but I had some problem.

Then I realized that in Comsol, it's possible to implement a nonlinear young's modulus.

But I am a little confused.

If you have a nonlinear Young's modulus, in the stress-strain curve, E is the tangent of this curve.

For hyperelastic material, let's say Ogden material. It's usually a nonlinear stress-strain curve as well.

boundary conditions problem (Tie ,MPC ?)

Submitted by hakim on

Hi Every Body,

I want to lie two parts to have the same displacement when applying a pressure:

for exemple tow coaxial hoses whiche become longueur when applying a pressure (tubes).

there is :

KINEMATIC COUPLING but it works only for a déformable part with à rigid part 

 

i want exactly do the same as what KINEMATIC COUPLING  do but for two defromable parts.

 

thanks in advance 

combining UMAT and UEL

Submitted by hadi on

I am trying to combine UMAT and UEL in my Abaqus calculation to simulate crack propagation by using a damage criterion. My UMAT calculates the damage variable in each time increment and whenever the damage variable violates the damage criterion in one or more elements, I should seperate the damaged element(s) via XFEM theory which can be implemented into a UEL code; therefore, I should use both UMAT and UEL in my calculation. Is there any way to combine these two codes together?
