Shell external skin

2008-08-29T14:07:56Z

Hi,
I am doing a FEA using shell elements, described by means of their
external skin. However, the code (Adina) considers the input geometry
as the midsurface of the element.
I have heard that some codes (Ansys?) take into account also the
possibility to set the described geometry as bottom or top skin of the

fea analysis of welding

2008-08-13T22:02:15Z

hi this is vicky here .... can u tell me how to go about for analysis
of welding joint, some other method other than element birth and death
method .........what to use ....transient thermal analysis or steady
state ....any related link o explain me the exact steps
and ......method used in welding analysis

Release of the Surrogate Modeling (SUMO) Toolbox v6.0

2008-08-11T09:49:45Z

We are proud to announce the 6.0 release of the SUrrogate MOdeling
(SUMO)
Toolbox.
[*] The SUMO Toolbox is a Matlab toolbox that automatically generates
a
surrogate model (= a metamodel, an approximation model) for a given
data
source (a simulation code, data set, Matlab function, ...) within the
predefined accuracy, sample budget, and time limits set by the user.

Column:Axial stiffness vs bending stiffness

2008-08-06T20:38:28Z

Consider a column.
1) As the bending moemnt incraeses (keeping axial force
constant);bending stiffness "EI" reduces.
2) My question is that what is the effect if reducing "EI" on axial
stiffness "AE/l" (AE)
3) Should we reduce "AE" too?If so what amount?
Can we neglect the change in "AE" due to reducing "EI"

Plane stress analysis

2008-07-24T17:11:30Z

Hi,
I am writing a code for plane stress problem with 6 noded
isoparametric triangular elements. I am using the standard FEM
formulation but my elements stiffness matrix does not match with what
I get from ABAQUS using the keyword *ELEMENT MATRIX OUTPUT. I am sure
there is some bug in my code but can't find it out. Even I did a
