DICOM
3D Doctor

Hi,

 

I hope this is the right forum to get some help for my work. 

I am looking at CT data (DICOM files) to make FEM models. To generate
3D surface/volumes for FEM, I was looking for softwares. They all are
pretty expensive (4-10K USD). I have decide togo with Able Software's 3D-DOCTOR. I am lookign for some reviews or user experience or comments for this tool.

 

Thanks

I have a squre block and inside it there is an sphere. I want to mesh the whole assembly. I can mesh the sphere but when i try to mesh the squre block with the spherical hole it cant mesh and says "it cant select the source and target face". I also tried to devide it into 8 parts. That helped me to mesh the sphere but i cant mesh the squre with spherical hole with that too. So please anyone can help me out.

Geometric Nonlinear FEM
Hi I am working on numerical simulation of petroleum pipeline subjected to
seismic hazards. I have developed Geo-Nonlinear FEM code for load
controlled which i have compered with Ansys and it is working fine.
now i would like to apply fault  displacement for this i need to
convert my code to displacement controlled using penalty approach
but it is not converging. i will be very happy if any one can suggest
how i can over come this problem or plz sugest me some book or papre. here I am using Newton-Raphson method

Hi

I have a question regarding calculating the B-matrix which is used to create the bimaterial H-matrix in the article: "Singularities, Interfaces and Cracks in Dissimilar Anisotropic Media" by Zhigang Suo, 1989.
