    Eigen strain

    Eigen strains- i happen to come across while i was reading some material on material interfaces and inclusions. For the homogeneous part of the material the energy is due to e0. while for the inclusion or interface we have energy coming due to et which is eigen strain. So i had a question whats...

    Effective Modulus Steel-concrete Box girder section

    Dear all. Iam trying to model a Steel open box girder section with a concrete deck slab in NASTRAN. I need to perform Nonlinear analysis for the Box girder. We are aware that Modulus of concrete in P-Delta behavior and M-Phi behaviour are different. From this prespective please let me know what...

    Locking and Zero energy Mode

    In using 4 noded non conforming element forplate bending it is said that it "Locks". How is locking associated with energies. Will adaptive refinement help me inpreventing Locking? Will adpative refinement reduce zero energy modes? In computing the energy of the system should i leave out the...

    What does the "H" in "h-method" stand for?

    h- size of element? is ambigious for quads or tets or iso curved elements? Do u know how to compute "h" for quads and solids esp tets and curved solids?? can any body tell on this

    Linear strain triangle

    Hi all, Why are the shape functions for 6 noded triangular element ( Linear strain triangle) written in natural coordinate system. Can any one let me as to where i can find the shape functions for Linear strain triangle in terms of cartesian coordinate systemt thanks and regds raj Raj

    Inter element compatibility and stiffness

    Greetings I have a CST 3 noded element(1-4-5) connected on one of its sides to a bilinear 4 noded quadrilateral(1-2-3-4) as shown in figure below. I have the following queeries 1) The DOFS of both elements are same ( 2 DOFS per node) can add the stiffness contributions coming from CST And QUAD...

    Design of RCC shell roofs

    Analysis and Design of RC shell roofs by RAMASWAMY S Analysis and Dsign of RC Shell rofs by Chandershekhar are the two good books (must read) . As far as design is concerend i have heard and i belive its recomeended only to perform an analysis using staad and not design . desin it manually with...

    Non-linear analysis-Permenant Deformation

    Greetings I have limited idea . I belive this would work. Alternative 1) AT renterant corners u need to adpatively refine your mesh either follow a h-refinement or a p-refinement so thatu reach a reasonably corect solution for stress. since wwe cannot find the error in computed solution at...

    Modelling Lap joint with HSFG Bolts In MSc Nastaran

    Greetings, Iam trying model a Lap joint with High strength frcition grip bolts in Nastran. My intrest is to get the frictional frces developed between the two plate interfaces. Could any one suggest me as to how i can go about modelling and what element i need to use for the same. The plates are...
