Abstract

Effects of the constraint’s curvature on structural instability: tensile buckling and multiple bifurcations

Can a single-degree-of-freedom elastic structure have two buckling loads?

We provide a positive answer to this question, see http://www.ing.unitn.it/~bigoni/multiple_bifurcations.html

Hi,

   In my fssw modeling, I'm using Johnson cook material model and C3D8RT element. I checked the consistancy of units also.

 

   My job is running upto 7frames out of 20frames and suddely aborting saying "the defomation speed exceeded the wave speed due to the excessing temperature and badly distorted elements" 

   Some times it also terminating saying "excess temperature occurs in solving the heat transfer equations"

 

can any body help me to complete my job please.

Need help with understanding Thin Plate Splines as Radial Basis function for Meshfree simulation

I want to try applying TPS as the RBF for the simulation of groundwater flow and transport. but the i'm getting error because of zeros in diagonal elements in the global matrix. Please help with the shape function
