Re: BeamSolver3D: wave propagation

I can only conclude that the beam solver does not include the dynamic forces of acceleration and velocity. The motion on the far side of the circle is moving but only due the the rings stiffness as opposed to the solid model which is excited by dynamic forces. I plot the displacement of the far side...

Re: Transient Phase Change Solver

When I download the files I run them as is without making any changes, but I do not get the same results. Is this the same case.sif that generated those vtu files?

Re: Comparison Between FEM Softwares

I do not know of a specific paper, but there are many such comparisons in this forum with other fea codes, physical problems, closed form solution, and NAFEMs validation cases.

Re: Transient Phase Change Solver

This attempt came close, the triple point follows the slanted line, but the point above it on the vertical line stays with the vertical line. Ideally it would transition from the vertical line to the slanted line, which is not so easy, but I have some ideas to test.

Re: Transient Phase Change Solver

It appears you are correct that a node that shares a boundary will not follow both boundary conditions. This is complicated by the fact the triple point has three BCs, it will only follow one. I tested normal-tangent BCs, using only heat equation, no phas change, and it doesn't appear to work on cur...

Re: Transient Phase Change Solver

I viewed closely at the movement near the triple point in paraview. Not only does the triple point not stay on the curve, none of the points on the curve stay on the curve. It does not appear that the nodes on the curve is adhering to the Normal-Tangential Mesh Update = True condition. Target bounda...
