hi,
I tried to solve tutorial 4 -Smitc solver – Eigenmodes of an elastic plate , But when i tried to edit solver settings I was unable to change the Eigen system values to 10 . The procedure they gave is :-
"
Model
Equation
Add
Name = Plate Equation
Apply to bodies = 1
Elastic Plates
Active = on
Edit Solver Settings
Solver Specific Options
Eigen Analysis = on
Eigen System Values = 10
Linear System
Direct = on
Umfpack
Add
OK
"
If anybody had solved this help me..

Re: Smitc solver – Eigenmodes of an elastic plate
I'm assuming you are referring to tutorial number 3 on this PDF. Here are the steps you need to do assuming you have installed a portable version of Elmer on Windows as described in this Video :
- Download the RunElmer.bat file in the attachment and place it in the main folder ELMER_HOME (e.g., ElmerFEM-gui-nompi-Windows-AMD64\RunElmer.bat)
- install Gmsh or download a portable version from here
- Download the pentagon.geo from the attachments
- Open a cmd terminal in the folder where you placed the geometry file and run
assuming gmsh.exe has been added to your global environment variables, otherwise, add the installation folder to the beginning of the above command
Code: Select all
gmsh.exe pentagon.geo -3 -order 1 -format unv
- Run the RunElmer.bat file and in the opened terminal run ElmerGui
- From "File > Definitions > Append" the "ELMER_HOME\share\ElmerGUI\edf-extra\elasticplate.xml" file
- From "File > Open" open the pentagon.unv file created by Gmsh
- Follow the steps in the GUI
