Nastran to Code_Aster : elasto-plastic deformation
This time we will have a look at nonlinear material properties, in particular elasto-plastic behaviour laws. This case is taken from a publicy available example on the internet, but the original source is probably this one, for all due credit. To read this article one will need some knowledge both in Nastran and in Code_Aster. The translation between Nastran … Continue reading Nastran to Code_Aster : elasto-plastic deformation
Testing Code_Aster in Microsoft Azure
Running the whole test suite available for Code_Aster is an important task to be sure about the quality of the binary, but requires some resources. Code_Aster contains about 3600 tests, each one coming with its documentation and it is an invaluable source of informations both for beginners and experts. Actually, more than 3200 tests are passing (the … Continue reading Testing Code_Aster in Microsoft Azure
Abaqus to Code_Aster : plane stress
Here is a really simple comparison between Abaqus and Code_Aster syntax. This calculation can be found on this site. The case here is a shell element with a point load in its plane : Expected results from Calculix (a free FEM software compatible with the Abaqus syntax) are : After calculation, here are Code_Aster results : As … Continue reading Abaqus to Code_Aster : plane stress
Nastran to Code_Aster: nonlinear gap elements
Code_Aster can really replace in many cases traditional solvers, let's try with a simple problem. This problem will look into a specific contact type, called CGAP in Nastran™ and unilateral contact ("LIAISON_UNIL") in Code_Aster. This case is taken from a publicy available example on the internet, but the original source is probably this one, for all due credit. … Continue reading Nastran to Code_Aster: nonlinear gap elements
