Computational Mechanics Forum

Hello to everybody. This is my first discussion on this forum. First I want say: "sorry for my bad english"



I want run an abaqus job analysis using different general user element types. I know I can refer to these user elements in elementDefinitions and other blockOptions in InputFile by the elementTypeKey (for example U100, U200, etc).I know I can define my general user element in a UEL user subroutine in a fortran source file.I know there is the variable JTYPE passed in subroutine, which is an integer defining the element type.

Hi,

i am a student of mechanical engg from india . Am a aerodynamics/computational enthusiast .

can someone tell me what are the current research topics in this field ..

The International Conferences on Nonlinear Mechanics (ICNM-x) have been regarded as important series conferences in mechanics circles. The previous four meetings in the series were successfully held in Shanghai and Beijing in 1985, 1993, 1998 and 2002, respectively. In recent years, new achievements in this field have been made. Therefore, it is appropriate to organize a new conference on this vitally important area of applied mathematics and mechanics. The Fifth International Conference on Nonlinear Mechanics (ICNM-V) will be held in Shanghai. The Conference aims to provide an international forum for presenting the latest results and stimulating wider academic exchange for experts in the related fields all over the world.

Hello,

As part of a university assignement I have to develop a four node beam element capable to account for shear deformation and thermal loads. I have to perform static plus natural vibration modes analysis.

Can anyone share his insights in the differences between these software packages?
