Elmer Discussion Forum

Hi Peter, thanks for the quick response. I already using the keyword "spring" for standard face BCs. Could you give me an idea or better example (or hint were to find one) to create a field including up to 15k areas with a certain value for spring and everywhere else extrem low (but >0)? S...

Hello, i'd like to bring this topic up again. (short summary: i'd like to use nodes as BCs (as springs in elastic plate solver). The problem: i like to use up to 15.000 nodes!) Meanwhile i've read some comments @ other threads (related topics). What i understood: - the "target node" option...

Probable first mistake is may be found: The MATC Manual says that the maximum element of an matrix is called by max(max(Variable). So may be the expression has to be : Variable Temperature; Real MATC "if (tx>=(max(max(tx))-0.05)) 1e10 else 0.01" Unfortunatley, it still does not work. So: t...

Dear All, i like to manipulate the material property "heat conductivity" in depency of the maximum Temperatur in my transient 2D model. Therefore i wrote the following expression into the "heat conductivity" section. Variable Temperature; Real MATC "if (tx>=(max(tx)-0.05)) 1...

Hi Peter, thank you for this hint. I added the Keyword "J Integral" as "Logical" to the solver.keywords file (and deleted the <type>-thing in the xml-file). Nevertheless: When creating the SIF-file via ELMERGUI it is still only "J integral = True". But it have to be &qu...

Hi Peter, Hi DePupereWolf, thank you for the f90 code. I'm using Windows and i tried to make it useable with ElmerGUI also. First i compiled the Jintegral.f90 files to dll. Additionally (for the GUI): I tried to edit a xml-file to the J-Integral. In principle it works, but i struggle with the "...

I'm also very interessted on fatigue prediction (and so on J-integral implementation in Elmer).
Is there any Progress or new tipps/hints on this topic how to solve in elmer (with programmers beginner Level)?

Hi again,
may be it is also not possible in ELMER GUI (only in Elmer consol on Linux). If so, then it would be also helpful to know this.
But i would assume that this is possible also from ELMER GUI

Thanks in advance

Hello, i'm using Elmer GUI (Win7) and would like to automaticly start Elmer Post with 3 lines of code where i could easily insert a variable L (script: math n0=nodes; math nodes=n0+L*Displacement; Display ) I tried to do this with the free-text section in Module "Results Output" by just ty...

Hello,
a (probably) stupid question to the ELMER GUI "Model --> Setup": What is the meaning of "Max Output Level" in the "simulation" section? And what number do i have to choose for what model/reason?

Thank you in advance
