The following is taken from the book Concepts and applications of Finite element methods by Cook, Malkus and Plesha.

 For bifurcation buckling, we have the following eigenvalue problem:

(K+Lambda Ksigma)delta d= 0 

Question about stochastic Finite Elements

Submitted by tlaverne on

Hi to the community !

I would like to ask if anyone have some experience with stochastic finite elements in an industrial context ?

Would you know some software (free or commercial) package for stochastic finite elements ?

Why do I have the feeling that sfem methods which look to be very promising aren't used much in practice ? Am I wrong when I say that ?



Thank you very much for any help about that !

lagrange multiplier and contact elements

Hello,

 

I would like to know how contact elements are different from " general "ie non contact finite elements.

Also I would like to know how Lagrange multiplier method is used in contcat analysis.

 

My understanding of the Lagrange multiplier is like this: when we have to impose a constraint equation

[C][D]=[Q] as constraint between DOFs, we incude a term Y*{[[C][D]-[Q]} where Y is the Lagrange multiplier ,in the potential energy functional and minimize the functional  to get the algebraic equations.

Are you looking for KEO Carbon Pedals

Submitted by robpoulton on

Are you searching for KEO carbon Pedals; The Attending KEO Carbon pedal embodies the absolute antithesis amid weight and performance. Twenty years ago if attending aboriginal invented the blow beneath pedal it afresh too was the criterion for all others that followed. At one time Shimano pedals could use attending fabricated cleats and you can see today similarities afresh with Shimano's use of an Attending block attending akin (no pun intended) in their SPD-SL design.



Is there a failure criterion/model for brittle spheres?

Submitted by shuo zhao on

Hi, everyone

I am a student. I am  dealing with a failure problem of brittle spheres. These have a lot of flaws inside.I did some compression tests. Single spheres are crushed by a pair of parallel plates. I got the crush load distribution (in terms of critical contact force). 

My question is:

is there a failure criterion/model which relates to load(critical contact force), Youngs moduli and Poisson ratios of shpere and plates, radius and friction coefficient?

Interlaminar Stresses

Submitted by nav_mech35 on
Dear Sir/Madam,
Interlaminar stresses in Composites
I have modelled Plain Stress problem in hypermesh(Input deck is created in Hypermesh to solve in Abaqus).Layup sequence is [0/90/90/0], am getting the Stresses( σ11, σ22, σ12) in top and bottom layers only, but unable to get the stresses at each Interface, If any one knows how to write the code, please reply back.

Hi, I've a doubt in ANSYS

Submitted by tjasminmary on

My doubt is in transient dynamic analysis.

take a simple model of 40*2*1 m dimensions.Applying brick45 material. with e=2.069e11N/m2

poissons ratio= .3

density= 7830kg/m3

first performing modal analysis with just arresting displacements in 1 side in subspace method and getting 10 sets of frequencies..

then performing transient dynamic analysis in mode superposition method with dynamic loads.and solve it
