In examples/large_deformation/hyperelastic.py a rotation by displacements is applied. By using a similar function the vectors defining the force couples could be defined for dw_surface_ltr (IMHO). Does it make sense? r. ----- Reply message ----- From: "Andre Smit" <freev...(a)gmail.com> To: <sfepy...(a)googlegroups.com> Subject: Torque Date: Sat, Dec 18, 2010 05:10 What is the best way to apply a torque load to a model? -- Andre -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sfepy-devel" group.

Re: Getting tension for each finite element

Hi Torsten! Look at the SfePy Primer [1], specifically the post-processing section. In short, you need to define a function ('post_process_hook' option in input file) that computes derived quantities from the computed variables (e.g. strain or stress from displacements). Let us know how it goes. Cheers, r.

I used linear_elasticity.py as a starting point for simulating stress in thin silicon layers. My manual meshing worked, and the displacements seem to be calculated properly. However, how do I get the stress in each element? I need it for determining where the layer will break. The original node positions of the mesh are totally relaxated (no tension anywhere).

Progress Bar
by Md. Golam Rashed 02 Jan '12

02 Jan '12

As analysis takes quite some time, it'll be helpful if there is a progress bar or progressing % showing. example: progress 1% progress 2% progress 3% . . . . . . progress 15% . . etc. this feature will really help large problem. is it possible to integrate this feature into sfepy??? Thanks

best HPC platform?
by Md. Golam Rashed 25 Dec '11

25 Dec '11

What is the best platform for High performance Computing? windows is long gone, i think. So only Unix and Linux stand the chance. As you people are expert here on Computational Science, Can you tell that expertise on what platform will strongly back my interest on Computational mechanics??

Exporting to PDF
by Torsten Bronger 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

Hallöchen! What is the best way to export VTKs to PDF? The GUI window of SfePy's viewer (the MayaVi 4.0.0 window) can write nicely to PNG but when it comes to PDF, the resulting file is unreadable by Evince of Acrobat Reader. Similarly, the SVGs cannot be imported into Inkscape, and the EPS files are not accepted by GhostScript. Thus, all vector formats seem to be broken. Is there another way? Tschö, Torsten. -- Torsten Bronger Jabber ID: torsten...(a)jabber.rwth-aachen.de or http://bronger-jmp.appspot.com
