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.

1D line elements in SfePy
by Nimish 22 Jan '16

22 Jan '16

I am currrently looking for FEM packages to help me solve a system of beams and columns, basically a collection of 1D bernoulli/timoshenko line elements. I started reading SfePy docs and i am getting the idea that doing the above is not really possible here, am i right? Are only 2D area elements permitted in SfePy? Or is there any direct support for solving 1D line elements too.. Cheers Nimish

"MemoryError" when using large mesh and how does integral order change prestress shape?
by Ronghai Wu 26 Nov '14

26 Nov '14

Dear sfepy users and developers, I am using sfepy for solving an 2D inclusion elastic problem. So, I implemented based on "linear_elasticity/prestress_fibres" example in interactive way. However, the prestress in my problem is not constant, so I manually assign values. I have two questions: 1. why when the integral order is 3, the array shape of prestress.datas[( 'Omega', 'i')][0]['val'] is (nx*ny,4,3,1), so when I assign by prestress_value, I have to make it the same shape. If change integral order to 1, the shape changes to (nx*ny,8,3,1), why? 2. When I use mesh smaller than 70*70, no problem. When 90*90 very slow. When 120*120 "MemoryError" comes out. Thanks a lot. My codes and errors are as follow: field = Field.from_args('displacement', np.float64, 'vector', omega, 1) u = FieldVariable('u', 'unknown', field) v = FieldVariable('v', 'test', field, primary_var_name='u') prestress_value = np.zeros((nx*ny,3,1)) m = Material('m', lam=lambda_, mu=mu) prestress = Material('prestress', val=prestress_value) integral = Integral('i', order=3) t1 = Term.new('dw_lin_elastic_iso(m.lam, m.mu, v, u )', integral, omega, m=m , v=v, u=u) t2 = Term.new('dw_lin_prestress(prestress.val, v )',integral, omega, prestress=prestress, v=v) eq = Equation('balance', t1-t2 ) eqs = Equations([eq]) ls = ScipyDirect({}) nls_status = IndexedStruct() nls = Newton({'i_max' : 1,'eps_a' : 1e-6,'problem' : 'nonlinear'}, lin_solver=ls, status=nls_status) pb = Problem('elasticity', equations=eqs, nls=nls, ls=ls) pb.update_materials() prestress_value = np.zeros((nx*ny,4,3,1)) ####################################################################### this is how I assign values to prestress, eta is a known scalar field. ####################################################################### for i in range(nx*ny): for j in range(4): prestress_value[i][j] = np.array([[stress00_11], [stress00_22], [ stress00_12]]) * eta.value[i] prestress.datas[('Omega', 'i')][0]['val'] = prestress_value pb.update_materials() ######################################################################## following is error: sfepy: updating materials... sfepy: m sfepy: prestress Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/spyderlib/widgets/externalshell/sitecustomize.py" , line 580, in runfile execfile(filename, namespace) File "/home/ronghaiwu/temporary/test.py", line 304, in <module> main() File "/home/ronghaiwu/temporary/test.py", line 179, in main pb.update_materials() File "/home/ronghaiwu/mypylibs/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sfepy/discrete/problem.py" , line 522, in update_materials problem=self, verbose=verbose) File "/home/ronghaiwu/mypylibs/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sfepy/discrete/equations.py" , line 313, in time_update_materials verbose=verbose) File "/home/ronghaiwu/mypylibs/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sfepy/discrete/materials.py" , line 70, in time_update mat.time_update(ts, equations, mode=mode, problem=problem) File "/home/ronghaiwu/mypylibs/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sfepy/discrete/materials.py" , line 339, in time_update self.update_data(key, ts, equations, term, problem=problem) File "/home/ronghaiwu/mypylibs/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sfepy/discrete/materials.py" , line 251, in update_data **self.extra_args) File "/home/ronghaiwu/mypylibs/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sfepy/discrete/functions.py" , line 34, in __call__ return self.function(*args, **_kwargs) File "/home/ronghaiwu/mypylibs/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sfepy/discrete/functions.py" , line 66, in get_constants out[key] = nm.tile(val, (coors.shape[0], 1, 1)) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/numpy/lib/shape_base.py", line 860, in tile c = c.reshape(-1, n).repeat(nrep, 0) MemoryError Regards Ronghai

Problem with a hexahedral mesh
by patricia...＠upf.edu 20 Nov '14

20 Nov '14

Hi! I am trying to simulate a hyperelastic 3D cylinder with hexahedral elements. I did the mesh with gmsh and save it as a .mesh file. When I do it with tetrahedral elments everything works perfect, but when I try to simulate the mesh with hexahredal elemnts, SfePy can not read well the mesh and give me this error: sfepy: warning: bad element orientation, trying to correct... sfepy: warning: bad element orientation, trying to correct... RuntimeError: elements cannot be oriented! (0, 3_4) I've attached the .mesh file with hexahedral elements Thanks a lot for the help!

Installation test failed

Hi, I tried to install SfePy on my openSUSE 13.2 64bit machine. I had a hard time installing PyTables, but I could handle this by installing it using /usr/bin/pip2.7 install tables ...after installing python-pip, hdf5-devel, python-devel and python-numpy-devel.

It should work out of the box. Look at [1] to see how to define a non-constant material parameter (the prestress here) by using functions. r.
