3-D finite deformation thermo-mech displacement element
« on: September 28, 2016, 05:47:27 PM »
Dear FEAP Team & Users,

how could I use 3-D finite deformation thermo-mech displacement element in FEAP?

I used following commands:

MATErial 1
  SOLID
    FINI
    ELASTIC NEOH  100    0.4995
    THERMAL ISOTROPIC  0.25   0.0
    FOURIER ISOTROPIC  10.0   1.0
    DENSITY MASS       0.10
    MIXED

It shows me thermal analysis results.

Best Regards,
Yaakov

The manual seems to indicate that this feature is only available for the small strain elements.  You will have to program it yourself for the finite deformation case.

Dear Prof. Govindjee,
Thanks very much for your answer! Is It possible that I could develop code " fld3d1tm.f "  for the finite deformation case (e.g. NEHOOKEAN)?
